Issue
When using an Oracle connection which was created on a computer that uses LDAP, TNSNAMES, or EZCONNECT on a computer that does NOT use any of these, the connection will no longer work and the following error occurs:
"Oracle database error 12154: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified"
This behavior can occur when:- Sharing workbooks between computers running Tableau Desktop, one of which has the above configuration file(s), and the other does not.
- Publishing a live connection to Oracle from a computer running Tableau Desktop that uses one of the above configuration file(s) to an instance of Tableau Server which does not. (If the connection is published as an extract, it will work, but will not refresh.)
