i'm assuming your server have the tnsnames.ora file already? are you able to connect to DB from your server?
also, you are using the right call interface, OCI 0g/11g in your repository?

i tested on my side and it works fine. i'm using 12.2.1.2, but i don't think the version matters.
i only use the easyconnect for my data source, so i don't have tnsnames anywhere.
the error msg says it can't resolve your SID. so it can't find your tnsnames.ora or something is not in the environment path.

The issue was with the DB, I wasn't made aware that the DB was upgraded recently and the TNSNAMES was changed. Thank you all for your efforts.
