ORA-00205: error in identifying controlfile, check alert log for more info

Hello All,
I am performing my first Collab Suite install in quite some time and I have successfully installed Collaboration Suite on Linux Red Hat AS 4. I first performed an infrastructure installation for the Collab Suite database which completed with no errors, however, it appears that no control files were created in my $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory during installation. I am also unable to specify their exact location in the initSID.ora file as I am unable to find them in any other directory on my server. The database starts despite the control file error, as you can see from the second SQL*Plus prompt. However, I am unsure how to create the control files or correct this error. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Control files are database-specific, since they contain information describing the database (location of data files, etc.) You can't copy them from one database to another.
Do you have a backup?

Edited by: ayadsufyan on 21-Nov-2012 01:30I'd say the error message is pretty self-evident:
ORA-00202: control file: 'E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\ORCL\CONTROL01.CTL'
ORA-27041: unable to open file

O/S-Error: (OS 2) can not find the specified fileWhat do you suppose "can not find the specified file" means?
And what does this have to do with database security?

It can e.g. be that while copying the file permissions have been changed, making the files not readable for the oracle user

Hi,
I am doing a manual upgrade from 10.2.04 to 11.2.03.
I have installed 11.2.0.3.
Ran utlu112i.sql
Copied TNSNAMES and LISTENER.ora,init.ora from 10g home to 11g home respective directories.
Commented all dump_dest paramteres in 11g init.ora and added diagnostic_dest parameter
exported all the varaiables as follows.

export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
export ORACLE_SID=OMIGTEST
export TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin

ORA-00205: error in identifying control file..after installing ASM

Hi
I haveoracle database 10g running on a redhat4 mechine.
i have installed ASM and migrate my database to ASM.
I haven't any problem and everything was fine till i reboot the mechine for the first time after
installing ASM.
I got the ORA-00205: error in identifying control file, check alert log for more info
error when database was restarting
any one can help me out of this problem
many many thanks in advance

eventually I figured out what the problem is.
The problem is about my dbora file used to start my database.
this is the whole story!!!
I have a oracle 10gR2 installed on Redhat linux AS 4.
I have configured my database to work on ASM.All the configuration have set properly
and every thing is fine except the Automatic starting the database in time
the mechine is restarted.
when i restart the mechine with nothing in dbora(used to automatically start the database)
and start everything after logging into oracle user(listener ,database,Enterprise manager)
no problem(i can see my ASM instance database instance throught Enterprise managaer).
but when i use dbora to do that i get this error appear in enterprise manager

Passing values to subreport in SSRS throwing an error - Data Retrieval failed for the report, please check the log for more details.

Hi,
I have the subreport calling from the main report. The subreport is based on MDX query agianst the SSAS cube. some dimensions in cube has values 0 and 1.
when I try to pass '0' to the sub report as the parameter value, it gives an error "Data Retrieval failed for the report, please check the log for more details".
Actually I am using table for storing these parameter values. In the main report I am calling this table (dataset) and passing these values to subreport.
so I have given like [0],[1] and this works fine. when I give only either [0] or [1] then it is throwing an error.
Could you please advise on this.
Appreciate all and any help.
Thanks,
Divya

Hi Divya,
Based on the current description, I understand that there is no issue if you pass two values from main report to subreport, while the issue occurs when passing one value to subreport.
To narrow down the issue, I want to confirm whether the subreport can run if there is only [0] or [1] in the subreport. If so, it indicates the query statements exist error in the subreport. If it’s not the case, this shows the issue occurs during passing
values from main report to subreport. To make further analysis, please post the details of query statements of the subreport to the forum.

While it was up, I have given a comment like this, without specifying the filename.ctl , I wrongly mentioned the Path alone, now it has been updated in spfile.
SQL> alter system set control_files='E:\APP\ADMINISTRATOR\ORADATA\BASKAR\CONTROLFILE\' scope=spfile;
System altered.
Then, When i was restarting my db its throwing an error, control file is missing.
Then I thought to run my db with pfile, then i tried to chang the controlfile parameter in SPFILE, it showing as like below one,
SQL> alter system set control_files='E:\app\Administrator\oradata\BASKAR\O2_MF_7CSK1379_.CTL' scope=spfile;
alter system set control_files='E:\app\Administrator\oradata\BASKAR\O2_MF_7CSK1379_.CTL' scope=spfile

Any one can let me know? how do i change my controlfile parameter in spfile.

Could you please post the full alert.log contents when the database starts up ?
Are you really sure that all your control files are OK ?
ORA-00205 error in identifying controlfile, check alert log for more info
Cause: The system could not find a control file of the specified name and size.
Action: One of the following:
Check that the proper control file name is referenced in the CONTROL_FILES initialization parameter in the initialization parameter file and try again.
When using mirrored control files, that is, more than one control file is referenced in the initialization parameter file, remove the control file name listed in the message from the initialization parameter file and restart the instance. If the message does not recur, remove the problem control file from the initialization parameter file and create another copy of the control file with a new file name in the initialization parameter file.

The service did not start due to the following error: The repository at this location is called rep_bkd_dev. Check the log for more information.

Experts, I created repository first with the name of rep_bkd_dev (Unicode),Then my lead told that we need to create RS with MS Latin,So am trying to creating a new repository with the name of dev_repository and it is showing the below error.Can some one help me out here. Regards,

It looks like you're seeing CSCte49301. Follow the release note steps to solve this:
Symptom:
The EssentialsDM daemon hangs in a Waiting to initialize state (as seen in the output of the pdshow command). Additionally, one might see "Error connecting to JRM" in Resource Manager Essentials applications.
Conditions:
This occurs on Windows servers after the patch for KB968930 is installed, and only if the Windows Remote Management service was started prior to starting CiscoWorks Daemon Manager.
Workaround:
Shutdown CiscoWorks Daemon Manager with the following command from the server's command prompt:
net stop crmdmgtd
Delete the following two files:
NMSROOT\MDC\tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\ctmregistry
NMSROOT\MDC\tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\ctmregistry.backup
Restart CiscoWorks Daemon Manager with the following command:
net start crmdmgtd
If that does not work, then the Windows Remote Management service must be stopped, and disabled. Then, CiscoWorks Daemon Manager must be restarted.
