When I create a dB link to one of my databases, it works just fine:
CREATE DATABASE LINK testdb
CONNECT TO wms_owner IDENTIFIED BY "the-pass0"
USING 'testdb'
When I create another link (same source database) to another database, the create works but the usage fails!
CREATE DATABASE LINK wmsp
CONNECT TO wms_owner IDENTIFIED BY "the-pass0"
USING 'wmsp1'
I get: ORA-02019: connect description for remote database not found:
SOME FACTS:
-the userid/ password and connect string are correct
-wmsp1 is defined in my local TNS and connects with SQL/PLUS ie. CONNECT wms_owner/the-pass0@wmsp1
- The instance is named WMSP1 but the dB is WMSP (some day we will use RAC)
PARAMETERS for both database are the same or equivalent:
-------------------------dB1------dB2
db_name(s)................testdb....wmsp
instance_name(s)........testdb....wmsp1
db_domain (s).............NULL......NULL
global_names(s).........FALSE....FALSE
What else could it be that makes the link not work????
Your help is much needed and appreciated

You need to ensure the tnsnames.ora on the server db1 is on has the necessary entry for "wmsp1".

ora 2019
02019, 00000, "connection description for remote database not found"
// *Cause:
// *Action:
Note:Make sure you have correct entry.Can you copy and paste your tnsnames file..?

You guys are right on target!!!!
my tnsnames.ora **on the server*** needed work!
I spun my wheels for hours and if not for this post it would have taken much more time.
Thanks!
