[Valgrind-users] ORA-12546: TNS:permission denied

[Patrick <pat...@al...>]

Hello,

I'm facing the Oracle error "ORA-12546: TNS:permission denied" whilst using
Valgind. It's working fine if I just start it from the command line not using
Valgrind.
I faced this problem the first time with a binary developped inside the company
at the execution of the following statement:
EXEC SQL CONNECT :ora_name IDENTIFIED BY :ora_pwd;
but the problem occurs also with SQL*Plus.

I'm using:
ospl012 linus>uname -a
Linux ospl012 2.6.9-22.ELsmp #1 SMP Mon Sep 19 18:00:54 EDT 2005 x86_64 x86_64
x86_64 GNU/Linux
ospl012 linus>valgrind --version
valgrind-3.2.3


Best regards,
Patrick
