Oracle OCI8, or "am I going crazy?"
All of a sudden, on three different systems, the "server_ip_address/sid_name" 
syntax in database.yml has stopped working for me.
I can''t even do a OCI8.new(blah blah blah) statement from an IRB shell.
I get "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener", or some variant, depending on how I phrase it.
On systems where I have a real deal client installed, and OCI can find the 
tnsnames
