Check with the database administrator that you have the correct Oracle
service name entered in the DSN configuration. The service name refers
to the database used for the connection. The service name is a string
that is the global database name, a name that comprises the database
name and domain name, for example ssa.acgov.org
Also check that have the correct SID. In the DSN configuration dialog,
there generally is a "Test Connection" button. It is useful to see if
that works!
