"ORA-12514:TNS: Listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
The error is self explanatory,
ORA-12514:
TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
Cause: The listener received a request to establish a connection to a database or other service. The connect descriptor received by the listener specified a service name for a service (usually a database service) that either has not yet dynamically registered with the listener or has not been statically configured for the listener. This may be a temporary condition such as after the listener has started, but before the database instance has registered with the listener.
Action:
- Wait a moment and try to connect a second time.
- Check which services are currently known by the listener by executing: lsnrctl services <listener name>
- Check that the SERVICE_NAME parameter in the connect descriptor of the net service name used specifies a service known by the listener.
- If an easy connect naming connect identifier was used, check that the service name specified is a service known by the listener.
- Check for an event in the listener.log file.
It might be a temporary issue, have a look at this ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service

John,
OP has not provided any details about the OS and DB version. Isn't it a situation that depends on OS? I mean, for example, Windows might work differently than UNIX/Linux. I am sorry if it's a stupid comment, however, I firmly believe it depends on OS.
I am absolutely open for any correction on this.
Regards,
Lalit

This would depend on your un-named OS and your un-named version ("the latest version" is meaningless) of Oracle.
However, all operating systems have the capability to search for a file by file name.
