Impossible to locate sqlnet.ora

[charlem]

Hello,

I am using virtualbox Version 5.2.12 r122591 (Qt5.6.2) on a windows 10 machine.

I can not find the sqlnet.ora file. When trying to open the file with command $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/sqlnet.ora, I receive an error message telling that permission is denied.

[oracle@localhost ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/sqlnet.ora
bash: /u01/app/oracle/product/12.2/db_1/network/admin/sqlnet.ora: Permission denied

As you may have understood, I am quite new with Virtualbox and linux. So I apology for my dumb question I have browsed the directories available to find it manually but without success. Can anyone give me some help?

Thanks in advance,

Have a nice day (or night)

Charlem

This is not a VirtualBox problem. VirtualBox provides the "hardware", not any software. That's your guest. You're having a problem with your guest.

Just because an OS/program that runs in the context of VirtualBox has a problem, it doesn't make it a VirtualBox problem necessarily. You're having an issue that has most probably nothing to do with VirtualBox, so my suggestion would be to treat it as such, as a native problem with the OS or the application of the guest.

sqlnet.ora is a file of Oracle Database.

Oracle Database is a separate product with its own support site Oracle Database Support
