You need to update the tnsnames.ora file on the db server.

Subject: db link

I'm creating a link:  

  1 Create public database link "LIMS_TO_ERT" connect to "XXX"   2 identified by "XXXXX"
  3 using 'PRODERT.ROSWELLPARK.ORG'  

it tells me the link is created, yet when I try and access thru the link I get:  

SQL> desc rpci.ert_lims_iface_at_lims_to_ert; ERROR:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified  

I have the PRODERT.ROSWELLPARK.ORG in my tnsnames and I can connect with sqlplus to that db. So what's wrong? All we did was move the database to a new server.  

ciao,

Brian
