Title: RE: missed Anjo's webcast..

1)    are you using global_names = true?  do the link names match the global names?   2)    is there a local tns entry on the machine with database A that points to database B?  we had a problem like then that was traced to our using Oracle Names without local tns files.   -bill -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Lange [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 08, 2002 6:05 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: DB Link Error Does anyone know the most common reasons why a DB LINK would give me the following error :   ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not found   Both databases exist ....   And even though I get this error going from Database A to Database B, the link I have between Database B and Database A works fine.   Kevin
