Re: Dimension processing TNS Names do Not Resolve



I hihgly recommend that you do not use the tnsnames in your db configuration, but instead use the full oracle string in place of the tns name alias

your tns files should look like that :
DEV1ORA=
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost.localdomain)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = dev1ora.devlin.com)
)
)


so in the connectring you can use "(DESCRIPTION =(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST = localhost.localdomain)(PORT = 1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=dev1ora.devlin.com)))"
for the data source.

if you do this you can prevent any error in the tnsnames.ora files, NTFS right to the file (probably your problem) or changes made by sysadmin you don't know about.

Hi all,

I have an Analysis Services DSV that exposes an Oracle database in the
relational view. However, when I try to process a dimension it fails giving
me the following

Errors in the high-level relational engine. The following exception occurred
while the managed IDbConnection interface was being used: ORA-12154:
TNS:could not resolve service name
.

I have checked my TNS_NAMES file and confirmed the entry of the server, and
ODBC connection also tested out ok. Does anyone have any ideas of how the
DSV does show the table underneath on the Oracle server, but doesn't process
a dimension?

Thanks,

Mark
