Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Re: ORA-12154: TNS: Could not resolve service name
Hi:
Check if you listener.ora has included the SID you especified in tnsnames.ora.
Say:
...
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = sidida.world) (SID_NAME = SIDID) (ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/app/oracle/product/7.3.2) (PRESPAWN_MAX = 10)
where SID_NAME has to be the same to
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = SIDIP)
in the tnsnames.ora.
If all this is right, try connect username/password_at_bpm
I hope it be helpful.
Bye
Federico
