          V_CT          NUMBER(18);
          V_PSN_ID      VARCHAR2(30);
          V_INTERNET_ID VARCHAR2(75);
     BEGIN
          V_CT                                                                           :=0;
          OPEN THE_CURSOR FOR SELECT PSN_ID, 'TEST' FROM TABLE_A@PRO1 WHERE TABLE_A.SEQ_A<=1000;
          LOOP
               FETCH THE_CURSOR INTO V_PSN_ID, V_INTERNET_ID;
          EXIT
     WHEN THE_CURSOR%NOTFOUND;
           INSERT INTO PSN_EMAIL_SENT_TO@local
                    (PSN_ID, LAST_UPDT_DT
                    ) VALUES
                    (V_PSN_ID, SYSDATE
          V_CT:=V_CT+1;
     END LOOP;
     CLOSE THE_CURSOR;
     DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE
          TO_CHAR(V_CT)
END;
Error report:
ORA-04052: error occurred when looking up remote object  TABLE_A@PRO1
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-04029: error ORA-1775 occurred when querying ORA_KGLR7_DEPENDENCIES
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01775: looping chain of synonyms
ORA-02063: preceding 3 lines from PRO1
04052. 00000 -  "error occurred when looking up remote object %s%s%s%s%s"
*Cause:    An error has occurred when trying to look up a remote object.
*Action:   Fix the error.  Make sure the remote database system has run
           KGLR.SQL to create necessary views used for querying/looking up
           objects stored in the database.

Answer 1

You need to create the catalog views that support distributed SQL in your remote database (the database you connect to via db_link).
To create these views, connect "/ as sysdba" and run:
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catproc.sql
which will in turn call several other scripts including: $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catrpc.sql (which creates your missing view)
It is best to run the whole catproc.sql script (and not just the catrpc script).
You can run and rerun catproc.sql several times quite safely.
