DBConnect not working with Oracle

I have installed both ojdbc5 and 6. I have tried to manually enter in the entry to the databases.conf file. I am still getting the ORA-12514 error. The credentials work as I can connect with other utilities besides dbconnect. Anyone else have any tricks that I can try to get this working? My sql db's are working fine in the app.

Cheers!

Hi. There is an example of the DB Connect configuration in the white paper "Real-Time Oracle 11g Log File Analysis" available at http://pmdba.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/real-time-oracle-11g-log-file-analysis.pdf. Hopefully this will help. A lot of other data input methods are also described.
