Re: TNS: could not resolve service name

If the database is not on your local machine, you must specify a service name, i.e. ORCL. And, the service name must be defined in NET 8 config, which contains the address of the database server machine, port number(default), database instance name, etc.

If the problem is still there, you'd better check whether the server listener works correctly.

Hope helpful.
