Oracle 10g Listener issues after IT changed computer domain name

listeneroracleoracle-10g

I need some help here.

We have Oracle 10.2.0.5.0 installed on a windows 2008R2 machine.

The issue is that our IT department changed the domain for that machine.
I tried editing our tnsnames.ora and listner.ora files and restarted the listener service.

I can connect to the database remotely using sqldeveloper, but if I try to connect through one our legacy apps that uses BDE I'm getting ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE.

In addition to this when I try to do a imp command or try to sign in using the sqlplus command on the box I get the following error.

ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

So I believe I'm missing something a step here. I've tried this as well

But I received a warning trying to drop the repo, and received an error trying to create it.

# This file is actually generated by netca. But if customers choose to

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)

NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = MYCOMPUTERNAME.MYCOMPUTERDOMAIN

I appreciate any help you can give me.

What is the entry in SQLNET.ora file of following parameter?

names.default_domain = world

If it doesn't contain your myNewDomain domain name then kindly modify it. I hope it will resolve your domain name misconfiguration. Or ask your system admin to check /etc/hosts file for domain name properly enter or not.
