Problem connection to SQL Server using DG4MSQL gateway.
I am getting the following error trying to use a SQL gateway on Windows platforms:
TNSPing seems fine (which seems like listener is fine).
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28545: error diagnosed by Net8 when connecting to an agent
Unable to retrieve text of NETWORK/NCR message 65535
ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from DG4MSQL
The dg4msql gateway (32 bit box, 11.2.0) exists on a separate machine from the 64 bit Oracle database (10.2.0.4)
and is trying to call a MS SQL 2005 database. The listener starts and stops fine and TNSPing from the database box returns OK.
Thanks for any advice in advance and sorry for the length of the post but I tried to show all the relevant parts. I am a newbie for sure.
The Oracle_Home is on: C:\product\11.2.0\tg_1 and that is included as the first part of the path statement (C:\product\11.2.0\tg_1\bin).
