In it the DBA_SERVER parameter should match DB_HOST parameter so that both have FULL
machine name where the Database is located (ex. use the full name WYSIW.mycompany.com
instead of just WYSIW).
Note that if you had the Oracle client installed on your machine, that while the silent
installer will still download the other parts of the application, a new tnsnames.ora
entry, to the database, will need to be made manually.
Please remember to use the full database machine name as the name of the new
tnsnames entry.
If you received Cannot connect to DBMS or DBMS is not supported in your current
installation message and you have confirmed that you have the Demantra
application and Oracle client installed then re-boot your machine and try the link one
more time.
