Problem
When trying to connect to the ORACLE Server via DBTools.h++, I get the following error:
ORA-12154 Could not resolve service name
Cause
If you are on a UNIX platform, you can use the ORACLE utility oerr to find out exactly how to solve this problem. This error is usually generated by an invalid service name.
Action
The service name should be used instead of the server name. Look in the file $(ORACLE_HOME)/network/admin/tnsnames.ora for the correct service names. Then use sqlplus to connect to the server before attempting to use DBTools.h++.

Service is a connection descriptor used since SQL*NET V2. It encapsulates the Oracle server name and database name. Misuse of the server name or/and database name will cause this problem.
