Maxdb parameter file corrupt

Hello Experts,
The file system /sapdb/data was 100% full some time ago, and since then we cannot start one of the database instances anymore.
When trying to start the instance it returns:
dbmcli -U c_J2EE db_start
ERR -11608 COMMUNIC sql03_request: wrong connection state, state is 'requested'
Error! Connection failed to node sapwd2 for database WD2:
connection broken
In the file /sapdb/data/wrk/dbmsrv_nlbsf02.prt I find the following lines at the time of error:
2009-02-18 14:04:00 0x00002a05 INF          1 DBMSrvCo A DBM Server client connection was established at 2009-02-18 14:03:59 (client process has process ID 10755 on computer sapwd2.bsf.bouwstenenfabriek.nl).

However, there is no indication which parameter file is corrupt. There is nothing written in directory /sapdb/data/wrk/WD2 when I try to start, so the KnlMsg file does not change either.
My question is for which parameter file is the checksum not correct? Is there a way to fix this parameter file?
I have searched google and SDN but not found anything usefull so far.

Hi Rob,
there is just one parameter file for each MaxDB instance - the currently active one.
It's the file /sapdb/data/config/<SID>.
As your current file seems to be damaged, you may rename it and run a
param_restore 1
to get the last backed up version of it back.
ATTENTION : If you modified the volume configuration before the file got corrupt and no backup version of the parameter file had been created since than,  restoring the old version will make your database unstartable.
The missing volume configuration parameters would then need to bee added manually again.
regards,
Lars

  • How to check the contents of Control file, Log file & Parameter file

    Can anybody help me how i can check the contents of Control file, Log file & Parameter file.
    Arif

    OK ...
    Parameter file:
    It will normally be in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directopry. It could be aan init{sid}.ora or a spfile{sid}.ora ... do not edit an SPFILE as yu could corrupt it.
    http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/create.htm#sthref434
    If it's an init{sid}.ora, use any editor to see the actual content.
    If it's a spfile{sid}.ora, use one of V$PARAMETER, V$PARAMETER2, V$SYSTEM_PARAMETER, V$SYSTEM_PARAMETER2 as aappropriate (read the Reference manual to get an idea about when each is appropriate)
    Control File:
    You should not edit a control file. It consists of many areas, as described here http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/physical.htm#i10135 and each are is interrogated by V$views as given in the reference manual.

  • ZAV 10 - Unable to open parameter file error

    When trying to launch a ZAV 10 app, C-Cure Administration Console, users are getting an error "**Unable to open parameter file cc800cl.pf, errno 2. (1247)". This only appears to be happening on Win7. This did work when first created, but after a few weeks the error has started to pop-up.

    If this was working and is not now, and you are certain nothing has changed on the client systems (or at least nothing that could interfere here), then this might be an issue with the license used when building the application. What is the expiry date of your license and was it applied prior to building this exe?
    If this isn't expiring please open an SR for this issue, if you can. This is the information the support team will require:
    - Copies of any warnings or errors around the time the issue occurs (or a copy of the application and system event logs, in .evtx format)
    - A copy of the exe you are using
    - If you can build the exe again as a diagnostic-mode executable and provide the diagnostics generated when attempting to run, that can be very helpful
    - It may also be required that you send installation media for the application and your build process, so the team can attempt to reproduce the issue in-house
    - You will also typically be asked for the .xappl file and associated Files folder, if reproducing in-house is required. This will become absolutely necessary if a ticket needs to be filed with Spoon, so sending it ahead of time is a good idea

  • Is there a cure for persistent file corruptions across the suite?

    i am having terrible and consistent problems with file corruptions across the suite. for example…
    1: i collected for output (indesign) – corrupted over 100 small images that were linked.
    2: opened an indesign job and all linked files failed to update and could not be imported (simply would not import those files and were all corrupted).
    3: had a hang in photoshop followed by a 150:30 error (would not open any of my applications). this prompted a clean install of system and adobe cs4 see below
    4: most recently, had a hang in photoshop (photoshop will also no "force quit") whilst indesign was open. two of my image files corrupted and, most surprisingly, all my illustrator files that i had placed also corrupted (will not even open in illustrator any more). illustrator was not even running at the time, so, get this – a hang in photoshop destroys illustrator files simply because they are placed in indesign.
    this last event has made me more certain than ever that there is a fundamental problem at the cs4 core.
    can anyone help?
    please note the following:
    i am running a macintosh imac, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (latest imac), with 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 ram.
    before this last disaster, i had reloaded the system software (archive and install), and updated it all the way to version 10.5.8
    i then uninstalled the creative suite, ran the cleanscript from adobe, reloaded the creative suite, downloaded all the cs4 updates
    (so, latest mac, latest system, latest cs4 – all clean installs).
    is there something i can do? or is this just a very unstable and disappointing upgrade – i have had nothing but problems from day one!
    many thanks if anyone has any advice.

    Re: 150:30 error:
    Please try this KB article's solutions, and report back on how it went for you. If you can provide details about any recent OS updates, backups, or migrations, that would help is nail down the root cause of the new rash of this error for Mac users recently:

  • How can I display the correct enum ring value from a parameter file?

    A user will make selections based on the menu ring (there are several of these) and then the values are saved for later use as a parameter (text) file. I have several menu rings which I write out to a parameter (text) file.
    How can I take these text values back into the appropriate location in the menu ring. For example, if I have menuring_value at index 0, menuring_value at index 1, etc. how do I make sure that, when the par (text) file is loaded, the saved values are the ones displayed without erasing the displayed menu ring value and inputting the saved one (from the parameter file). I would like the text value to search the appropriate menu ring, make a match and then display that menu ring value when the parameter file is loaded.

    If I understand your question, attached VI should have solved your doubt
    In this example, Configuration File VIs are used to save & retrieve MenuRings' statuses.
    As this VI is improvised, please further modify it to suit your needs.

  • Sync File Corruption with 64-bit Vista/iTunes

    I'm getting some file corruption problems when trying to sync my new 16GB iPhone with the latest 64-bit iTunes (7.6.0.29). "yes I have the 64-bit version".
    The sync seems to go correctly, but I have yet to be able to play any videos all the way through. Videos purchased from iTunes as well as self encoded files. All said files were working on my 60GB iPod Video with previous versions of iTunes on the same 64-bit Vista machine.
    The videos will start playing fine, but will eventually reach a point in the file that was corrupted during transfer, the audio will drop out and the video will distort, then it exits from the video as if it reached the end of the file. No error messages or anything. If I play the file again, it will do the same thing at the exact same spot, so its a problem in the file. Now, if I remove the file and add it back, the file still has the same problem, but in a different location, which means the source is fine, but the copy to the device during the sync is the issue.
    To test, I synced the exact same content from my notebook which is 32-bit XP, and zero problems. So I'm currently just using my notebook for syncing at the moment.
    Anyone else with 64-bit Vista have a similar issue?

    Hello
    I have a couple troubleshooting steps I would like you to try. I myself do not have a 64 bit Vista so I can not test this to confirm if the same issue occurs or not.
    1. Attempt to Sync content using each of the USB Ports. See if all USB Ports pose the same issue with the video. Or if you found when where it does not occur.
    2. Test on a new user on the Vista Machine. If possible take at least one or 2 movies and copy them onto a flash drive or something. And bring them into iTunes on a new user account. You may need to Authorize that user and De-authorize when your done. Does the same issue occur?
    3. If you perform a reboot on the iPhone, Then Sync Data over. Does the same issue occur?
    4. If possible could you restore the iPhone. Then Re-sync and see if same issue occurs.
    5. Is this happening with all videos? or only certain ones? Does the corruption occur at the same time frame every time? If so is it the same time frame for all videos or slightly different?
    6. Perform an Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes on your system, See if same issue occurs.
    Let us know how it goes.

    can this happened due to data base or log file corruption, if so how can i check on that to verify the issue
    Its not necessary if the issue is with network it would happen every day IMO it basically happens when load on network is high and you transfer log file which is big in size.
    As per message database engine was not able to restore log backup and said that you must rebuild log because it did not find out log to be consistent. From here it seems log corruption.
    Is it the same log file you restored ? if that is the case since log file was corrupt it would ofcourse give error on wehatever server you restore.
    Can you try creating logshipping on new server by taking fresh full and log backup and see if you get issue there as well. I would also say you to raise case with Microsoft and let them tell what is root cause to this problem

When i tried to download and install google maps again and tried to install it again, it keeps saying "file corrupted". The same goes with other apps i try to download and install. But I have no trouble installing java apps.

  • Lost of Parameter file in web application

    Hi,
    We develop a java (1.5) application running on Tomcat (5.5 and 6.0).
    In this application, we use a parameter file in YAML format.
    Everything works perfectly except when the tomcat server is restarted.
    At this point, the application is no more able to reach the parameter file.
    We have to re-deploy the whole application to be able to use the parameter file.
    But we lost it again when the server is restarted.
    We don't know if the problem is coming from our tomcat configuration or from our java code.
    The problem is seen on Tomcat 5.5, 6.0 and on Linux and Mac OS X.
    So, it must come from our code.
    Do you have an idea ?
    Thanks
    Here is the code where the parameter file is read:
    final private String YAMLpath = "truc" + File.separator + "META-INF" + File.separator + "Parameters.yaml";
    try
                   Scanner openYAML55 = new Scanner(new File(this.YAMLpath) ); //For Tomcat5.5
                   this.readParameterFile(openYAML55);
                   openYAML55.close();
              catch(FileNotFoundException f)
                   f.printStackTrace();
    private void readParameterFile(Scanner paramFile)
         while(paramFile.hasNextLine())
                   Pattern paramLine = Pattern.compile("(\\w+)\\s*:\\s*(.*)");
                   Matcher paramArg = paramLine.matcher(paramFile.nextLine());
                   if ( paramArg.matches() )
    if ( paramArg.group(1).trim().equals("dbase") )
                             this.dbase = paramArg.group(2).replaceAll("\"", "").trim();
                        else if ( paramArg.group(1).trim().equals("dbport") )
                             this.dbport = Integer.parseInt( paramArg.group(2).replaceAll("\"", "").trim() );
                        else if ( paramArg.group(1).trim().equals("dbhost") )
                             this.dbhost = paramArg.group(2).replaceAll("\"", "").trim();
              this.bgeeRoot = this.serverRoot + this.bgeeRoot;
              this.homePage = this.serverRoot + this.homePage;
    }

    How about simply loading the file or obtaining its input stream as a resource using ClassLoader.getResource[AsStream]? Direct file access to parts of a web app... my oh my.

  • File corruption on SDCard when multiple files are being written from WinCE 6.0R3

    We currently have file corruption problems which we have been able to reproduce on our system which uses WinCE 6.0R3. We have an SDCard in our system which is mounted as the root FS.  When multiple files are being written to the file system we occasionally
    see file corruption with data destined from one file, ending up in another file, or in another location in the same file.  We have already written test SW that we have been able to use to reproduce the problem, and have worked with the SDCard vendor to
    check that the memory controller on the card is not the source of the problems.
    We know that the data we send to WriteFile() is correct, and that the data which eventually gets sent through the SDCard driver to the SD card is already corrupted.
    We believe that the problem is somewhere in the microsoft private sources between the high level filesystem API calls and the low level device calls that get the data onto the HW.
    We have confirmed that the cards that get corrupted are all good and this is not a case ofpoor quality flash memory in the cards. The same cards that fail under WinCE 6.0R3 never fail under the same types of testing on Windows, Mac OX, or linux.  We
    can hammer the cards with single files writes over and over, but as soon as multiple threads are writing multiple files it is only a matter of time before a corruption occurs.
    One of the big problems is that we are using the sqlcompact DB for storing some data and this DB uses a cache which get's flushed on it's own schedule. Often the DB gets corrupted because other files are being written when the DB decides to flush.
    So we can reproduce the error (with enough time), and we know that data into the windows CE stack of code is good, but it comes out to the SDcard driver corrupted.  We have tried to minimize writes to the file system, but so far we have not found a
    way to make sure only one file can be written at once. Is there a setting or an API call that we can make to force the OS into only allowing one file write at a time, or a way of seeing how the multiple files are managed in the private sources?
    Thanks

    All QFE's have been applied we are building the image so we have some control.
    I have build an image which used the debug DLL's of the FATFS and I have enabled all of the DebugZones.  The problem is still happening. From the timings in the debug logs and the timestamps in the data which corrupts the test file I have been able
    to see that the file is corrupted AFTER the write is complete. Or at least that's how it seems.
    We finished writing the file and closed the handle. Then more data is written to other files. When we get around to verifying the file it now contains data from the files that were subsequently written.
    What I think I need to do is figure out in detail how the two files were "laid down" onto the SDCard.  If the system used the same cluster to write the 2 files then that would explain the issue.

  • H8-1520t: sfc /scannow reported file corruption in Windows 8.1

    My computer (h8-1520t) computer had had file corruption error reported by sfc /scannow.
    The corruption was rather common corruption as discovered elsewhere on the internet.  The corruption pertained to prncacla.inf and it was repaired only by using DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth.  The corruption occured while the computer was doing automatic maintenance which locked up my system.  After forcing a shutdown and rebooting, I immediately ran sfc /scannow and that's when the corruption was first detected.
    Now sfc /scannow finds no corruption and automatic maintence runs to completion.
    Since this is a rather common corruption error and there's no explanation as to what causes the problem, should I send my computer, which it's still under warranty, back to HP ---or--- did I corrected the corruption properly ? ? ?
    On additional question: What on earth causes that common corruption to occur anyway.
    Also: UEFI diagnostics extensively run and the extensive testing revealed no problems with system board, hard drive, memory, processor (i7-3770), graphics card memory (Radeon HD 8570).
    If I should be concerned about my computer being a dud and lemon, I'd like to know... Or, did I fix the corruption correctly?
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • File Corruption During Sync Windows 8.1

    Hi
    I have recently introduced some Windows 8.1 systems into our environment, a Sony laptop and a non branded custom build, both systems are running Windows 8.1 Pro.
    Our environment is as follows:
    Windows Server 2008 domain
    PPTP VPN for laptop users using a Watchguard X515.
    Netgear ReadyNAS 2100 for Network Folders.
    Folder redirection in place for Documents and Desktop.
    Offline files in use. Users have the ability to make shared network files available offline if required.
    The first device we had with 8.1 Pro was a Sony laptop for our Marketing Director.  He has manually made a few shared network folders available offline for when he is out of the office and unable to connect to the VPN.  
    We first noticed an issue a few weeks ago when he came to me telling me that one of his documents were corrupt.  The file was one of the ones he has made available offline.  When he got into the office he ran a manual sync, to put the updates onto
    our shared drive.  When he next came to open it, the file was corrupt with the following message:
    'Excel cannot open the file 'XXXX XXXX.xlsx' because the file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file'.
    I ran the file through Excel's file repair, which couldn't fix the problem and I tried a few software packages from the internet which said the file was unrecoverable, to no avail.  We tried to recreate the issue but couldn't so we put it down to a one
    off.  A few days later, it happened again under the same circumstances.
    I put it down to something happening while the laptop was offline, however whilst researching this, the same problem happened on a Windows 8.1 Pro Desktop.  This system never leaves the office, which led to some confusion.
    Everywhere I look points to ransomware, however I have run full scans with Sophos and Malwarebytes, and both come back clean, and the issue is only occurring on 8.1 Pro systems, 7 Pro and 8 Pro systems are fine.
    The user with the 8.1 Pro desktop created a test spreadsheet for me, and this morning we managed to recreate the problem.  When running a manual sync, the Offline Files comes back with an error, stating that the network copy has been deleted, would you
    like to copy the local copy or delete it?  When we copy the local copy to the network, and then try to open it, we get the previous error about file corruption.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I will have to roll the systems back to Windows 7 if I cant get it resolved, which would be a shame as the laptop is has a flip screen to turn it into a tablet.
    Cheers
    Jim

    Hi,
    You can boot the problematic system with clean boot to check if there is any third party software conflicts.
    Steps to clean boot: 
    1. Click Start->Run...-> type msconfig and press Enter
    2. Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services and Disable All third party Services.
    3. Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items
    4. Click OK and choose Restart
    5. After reboot, check whether the problem still occurs
    In additional, please refer to the thread below to troubleshoot the issue:

  • MaxDB configuration file - SAP System Rename

    Hello,
    I am new and tried to make a System Rename with SWPM.
    We have maxDB.
    After a few steps the setup wants you to choose a maxDB configuration file which was used for installation of the source system.
    Does anyone new where I can find this configuration file?
    I tried a few cfg files but nothing was correct.
    These files here are not correct, I tried.
