I am having SQL Server 2008 Express Edition and Informatica 8.6 for installation. I got stuck

dbase url: localhost:1521
database user id: infarep /*(anything u like)*/
dbase user password: ******* /*( thing u chose to be)*/
database connect string:XE /*(mine is XE)*/

hit test connection

well u get test pass notification if ur test fails try to create a infarep database user id in the
oracle 10g and give all the dba rights to it. and then ....... try to hit the test button u can see test
pass phrase.
