Process flow errors while deploying

Question

Hi all,
The following error occurs while deploying a simple process:
RPE-02085: Failed to test wb_rti_workflow_util.initialize through deployed Workflow Database Link
CF.US.ORACLE.COM@WB_LK_F_IMP_BB. Please check that "EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE" privilege is set and
that the OWB Runtime is available.
- ORA-04052: error occurred when looking up remote object
[email protected]@WB_LK_F_IMP_BB
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
OWF_MGR has been given execute any procedure grants. My opinion is that the database link has an error. This is how Oracle creates the DB link:
create database link CF.US.ORACLE.COM@WB_LK_F_IMP_BB connect to RUNTIME_OWNER identified by RUNTIME_OWNER using'
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=demo.SMS)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=CF)))';
When i create another DB link manually without the '.sms'-part in the HOST then the DB-link works fine. Where can i find the parameter that tells OWB to put .sms behind the hostname? I have tried numerous possibilities in sqlnet.ora, listener.ora and tnsnames.ora, but nothing seems to work. I have read the previous articles on this subject but havent found the solution.
Thankz in advance,
Eric

I am getting the same problem, The problem was caused by the domain suffix (.KC.RR.COM).
when I deploy a processflow package, owb creating bd_link with following description. Actually my host name is NG.
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=NG.KC.RR.COM)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=ORCL)))
How can I avoid creating domain suffix as part of db_link. Please let me know the steps you have taken to correct this.
Your help is greately appreciated.
Thanks,
Reddy
