Giving you Metalink documents would violate the support agreement one pays for. But for free, I can give you the following:

edcsns19 gasp% oerr ora 12514
12514, 00000, "TNS:listener could not resolve SERVICE_NAME given in connect descriptor"

// *Cause:  The SERVICE_NAME in the CONNECT_DATA was not found in 
// the listener's tables.
// *Action: Check to make sure that the SERVICE_NAME specified is

correct.
// *Comment: This error will be returned if the (database) service has not been
// registered with the listener; a database instance that is part of this
// service may need to be started or configured properly.

This means that you need to check the SERVICE_NAME parameter as defined in your listener.ora config file.

HTH,
Brian
