Figure 21: Environment variable
Another option is to add a local environment variable called TNS_ADMIN with the
same parameters as for the registry option. The difference between the two is that
a registry string will only affect the VCP applications, while the others will affect
all applications using an Oracle client.
Figure 22: Initialization file
In order for the TNS_ADMIN setting to work for VCP, the name key in the Database
Initialization File Configuration (ContentPilot.ini)
must hold the TNS name alias
(e.g. VIZRTDB) set in the tnsnames.ora file.
To set the TNS alias in registry
1. Open Registry.
2. Add the TNS_ADMIN registry string to the
viz|content pilot 5.x key.
