Is your Oracle 11 instance in a RAC? If so, there are issues with the installer working with the instances of a RAC that can give errors like you posted. I posted how we worked around the issue a while back (I think it was early to mid last year). I can try to find it again if that's what's going on here.

I'm running Oracle 11 and I'm using the installation within a upgrade mode as we have imported our DB data (oracle 9) into our new DB (Oracle 11). Following the BMC support matrix, we are using the oracle client 10... The problem is that I get the following error during the installation : ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified Or depending on the setting I provide I get ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor I have checked the tnsname.ora file as well as the listener.ora and everything seems to work fine... the listener is started, I can do a TNS ping, I can connect with SQLPLUS,... Also during the installation he ask me for the "Oracle Connection Identifier" and don't really which information I should provide at this point. Any idea ?
