Is there a tnsnames.ora file in your /etc directory?
See Documentation:

Hope that helps.

ERROR at line 2:

COUNT(*)

QUESTION:
The tnsnames.ora is in the default location and it is not found until
TNS_ADMIN is set. How do I find out where TNS_ADMIN is pointing at the
system level, if there is such a thing ? Why do I have to set TNS_ADMIN at
the session level ?????
TIA,
