ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name

Cause: The service name specified is not defined correctly in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.

Action: Make the following checks and correct the error:
- Verify that a TNSNAMES.ORA file exists and is in the proper place and accessible. See the operating system specific manual for details on the required name and location.
- Check to see that the service name exists in one of the TNSNAMES.ORA files and add it if necessary.
- Make sure there are no syntax errors anywhere in the file. Particularly look for unmatched parentheses or stray characters. Any error in a TNSNAMES.ORA file makes it unusable. See Chapter 4 in the SQL*Net V2 Administrator's Guide. If possible, regenerate the configuration files using the Oracle Network Manager.

Cause: The trace file to be generated is not writeable by this user.

ORA-12162: TNS:service name is incorrectly specified

Cause: The connect descriptor corresponding to the service name in TNSNAMES.ORA is incorrectly specified.

ORA-12163: TNS:connect descriptor is too long

Cause: The connect descriptor corresponding to the service name in TNSNAMES.ORA is too long.

Cause: Oracle Trace doesn't allow writing trace information into your swap space.
