Hello,

I am trying to connect to an Oracle 10g Express Database, but I always get the message "NET: Service unavailable".

I setted the direct option to true, cause this was one of the reasons why we decided to use this components with this licence.

What do I make wrong? Other components, which are using the oracle client (oci...dll) are working, but I want to avoid using the oracle client.

Is there any important setting I missed?

I specified the username, password, schema and server. In Server property I entered the ip address of the oracle server followed by ":" and the SID of the database. Like (192.168.1.249:XE)

Try to specify Port in Server property. For example,

192.168.1.249:1521:XE

Hello,

thank you this helps very much.

Did I miss something or is this information really nowhere written down in the supplied help files?

Please refer to the "Connecting in Direct mode" topic in ODAC help.
