[solved] remote connection with oracle database having prob

Hello!

i'm being unable to connect to a remote oracle database using zeos lib. I was able to do it with a similar oracle database located in my computer with quite similar/equivalent configuration (username, password, version, etc.) and I was able to connect to the remote database using a VPN via SQLPlus and Qt's QOCIDriver/QSqlDatabase; only when I try to do it with Zeos is that the error ORA-01017 appears.

Any guess why is that so?

Since I have the valid string connection, I was thinking about connecting using it, but I couldn't find a method in the TZConnection class that give the possibility of establish a connection using a connection string instead of the Connect() method together with Driver, Username, Password, Port and Host methods.

Any help would be appreciated.

Problem found: I didn't have one of my .ora configured correctly, that is, with the configuration related to the external database, only to the localhost.
