Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Problems with database link - 8.1.6
Hello, Manas,
I think it's about the GLOBAL_NAME init parameter on the server site.
Check to see if you have GLOBAL_NAME set to TRUE where PROD points to.
Be very careful about GLOBAL_NAME, coz when it set to be TRUE, then you are using DB_NAME.DB_DOMAIN instead of just the DB_NAME.
Hope it helps!
Yours,
Keith Shum

Hi:
I'm having problems setting up and using database link.
My create statement looks as follows:
create database link PROD connect to xuser identified by xpwd using
'TRNGPROD';
I then execute :
select * from sysadm.employees_at_PROD.
and get the following error:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
However I can connect to TRNGPROD from SQLPlus.
What am I doing wrong?
TIA,
Manas.
