hi,
I have a Solaris 9 box hosting Oracle 9i . I created a tnsnames.ora file manually.
Now the problem is that when i can connect to oracle without specifying net_service name but when i try to connect with the net_service name it generates error -- ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name.

Note : I am trying to connect from the same machine which is hosting Oracle so no network connectivity issue i suppose.

Hi,
03505, 00000, "Failed to resolve name"
// *Cause: The service name you provided could not be found in TNSNAMES.ORA,
// an Oracle Names server, or a native naming service.
// *Action: Verify that you entered the service name correctly. You may need
// to ensure that the name was entered correctly into the network
// configuration.
Try adding this to your SQLNET.ORA file: NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = world
... and change your TNSNAMES.ORA entry to:
Best regards.
Frank

I changed as u mentioned ,
sqlnet.ora
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=(NONE)
NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN=world
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH=(TNSNAMES, ONAMES, HOSTNAME)
tnsnames.ora
SRVC_TESTDB.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = dogmatix)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = testdb)
)
)

Hi Frank,
First of all thanks for your support . And now i am able to resolve the issue. I am explaining the problem .
The parameter TNS_ADMIN was set on my machine and it was pointing to a non-default location. And i was creating the tnsnames.ora file at the default location i.e. $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin but Oracle was reading from the location specified by TNS_ADMIN environment variable .
I removed it and now everything working fine.
Thanks for your help.
