am getting this message when am connecting to a database :

ora-12519:Message 12519 not found;product=RDBMS80 facility = ORA

am not getting this message all the time, sometimes am connected without any problem sometimes i get this message and i have to try again several times until am connected

i searched the net and my database provider guided me to this log --> http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/62379/0/

so am not sure if this is the cause and am not sure how to
set my ORACLE_HOME environment variable and with what ....

ORA-12519: TNS:no appropriate service handler found
 *Cause: The listener could not find any available service handlers that
 are appropriate for the client connection.
 *Action: Run "lsnrctl services" to ensure that the instance(s) have
 registered with the listener, and are accepting connections.

Dear Michel thanks for the reply

i'll explain my case in details , we are connected to a remote database , our database provider gave us the tnsnames.ora and then we are connected ...
now in the past we didnt face a problem but recently we are getting this message many times but on the same client sometimes we are able to connect and sometimes we are getting this message and we have to try again ( without changing anything on the pc ) and then we are connected ...

so am not sure if this is sth to do with oracle_home in the environment variable and if yes ... what is the value that i should set my oracle_home with

Maybe sometimes the service is up and sometimes it is not.
Activate SQL*Net trace if you want more.
Did you try the mentioned action?

Dear Michel,
this should be done on the server right? but i dont have access to the server and our provider insists that the problem is a client issue ...

so how can i be sure that the problem is from the database service or from our clients pc's

thanks alot

Please activate trace as we are NOT at your place and CAN'T know what problem you have.
