I ran the copy using SQLPLUS from 8.0.5 trying to copy between 2 8.0.5
databases and it still failed.
Any further suggestions Jared ?

OK. I am using an 8i client here. Let me try and do it thru the 8.0.5
SQLPLUS.
Thanks

Kevin,
This is a bug in sqlplus. You are using two different releases Oracle,
and when you are using the 8i version of sqlplus and trying to describe
a table on a lower version of Oracle through a dblink, you will get this
error.
The work around is: Don't do that. Seriously. It's not fixed, nor will
it
be fixed. You can find details on MetaLink.

Subject: RE: DB Link Error - More Info
Sorry for the lack of info. Her it all is:
1) I have tns entries on both database machines that point to each
other.
2) I have global_names set to false on both machines.
3) I have the same ID defined with the same password on both machines.
4) We do not use Oracle Names.
On machine A:
I created a link :
create database link b using 'b.world';
On machine B:
I created a link :
create database link a using 'a.world';
Here are the results:
1. I can select data back and fourth between both machines wit no
errors.
2. When I try to describe a table accross the link I get the ORA-0219
error.
3. When I try to use the plsql copy command (ultimately what I want to
do) , on machine B, I get an error stating that I am trying to Fetch out
of sequence. On machine A I get an unknow error that can not be
interpreted .... a long string of numbers as the error number.
So, thats it. Currently I am resorting to small selects accross the
working part of the links. But, eventually I need to get to the copy
commands because they have the commits in them.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Kevin

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.

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.
