Hi All,
What happen when i try to connect to database it connects but sometimes it does not and throw up this error ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name. What its behaving like this? why sometimes its not able to connect to database?
Anybody have a solution for this? any body has face this kind of weird problem before. How much important is SQLNET.ora file? I don't have this file in my network/admin directory
Thanks in advance

from somewhere i got this message
For the benefit of other users, customer was seeing intermittent
"ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name". The behavior was resolved after the customer modifed the sqlnet.ora file to use static tnsnames rather than onames.
Here what it means static tnsnames?
Thanks & Regards

Can anybody tell me how to see Oracle Names is configured or not. I don't have access to database machine but i will be checking all the things thru client. How can i know if Oracle is using TNSNAMES.ora or ONAMES? if there any view available that can tell me this.

I modifed the sqlnet.ora file to use static tnsnames rather than onames. Than appears to have corrected the issue. I have monitored the system for several days and we have not had another occurrence.
Thanks,
