Hi,
I tried to startup the db but I receive erros.
This is the operation I do:

Thansk, bye bye.

The second line means the mentioned file does not exist.
Please make sure it exists.
When running into an error please ALWAYS consult the online error messages manual, before asking for clarification.

ORA-01078 indicates your database itself is not up. How is it that you can connect through TOAD to this database?
but not getting ointo sql promt on serverwhat do you mean by this? Do you mind doing a copy-paste of your screen and posting here so that we have a better idea of what you are looking at?

I am getting the following error when I try to create PFILE:
CREATE PFILE must be done from sqlplus prompt & not from OS command line
We, you & I, don't know what actual ORACLE_SID is.
Is it DB12C, or 12cdb?
When was last time this DB successfully started?
What changed since then?

ORA-01078 at startup

Hello guys,
i am using an Centos 6.2 linux with installed oracle-xe. I have installed it from an rpm.
I use always the default settings.
After that i could start it normal and successful connect to apex.
Now i want to create an database user.
I connect as sysdba: sqlplus "sys as sysdba" and enter the password.
The message: "Connect to an idle instance" comes.
If i try: "CREATE USER HTS IDENTIFIED BY pw1;" the error ora-01034 occurred.
If i try: "startup" the error ora-01078 and lrm-00109: could not open parameter file '/u01/app/oracle/prodcut/11.2.0/xe/dbs/initxe.ora' occurred.
I have read a lot but i don't see the solution for my problem.
Has anyone an idea?

Hi;
1. Centos is not certified platform
2. For your issue i suggest close your thread here as changing thread status to answered and move it to Forum Home » Database » Application Express which is XE dedicated forum site.

Startup ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters

Hi All ,
Good Evening/Afternoon.
I am oracle version 10.2.0 on LINUX.
I have created a local database for my practice with the name ZION. The pfile for the same currently resides on the location : /u01/app/oracle/ZION.
Whenever while doing a startup i mention this location it gets opened properly.
As a default location , the pfile should be located in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs path so i created a softlink from the above path(/u01/app/oracle/ZION) to the dbs directory.
[oracle@srv1 dbs]$ pwd
/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dbs

Please suggest.
PS: Meanwhile I am trying the otherway round. copying the initZION.ora in the dbs after removing the softlink from here and then create the softlink in /u01/app/oracle/ZION from dbs.
Thanks and Regards

Solution : As in above case, I have started the database in mount and then alter it to the open mode but it doesnot work out. After some analysis ,troubleshooting and googling, we have decided to flush the shared pool component of the SGA . So, we have started the database in mount stage and then flush the shared pool and further alter it to open stage . Below are the steps performed to solve this issue .

Hyperion startup error -ORA-12514, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

Hi All,
While restarting the hyperion service we see this exception. Nothing was changed on the hyperion server. Checking with DB team if anything was change on their end.
Caused By: weblogic.common.ResourceException: weblogic.common.ResourceException: Could not create pool connection. The DBMS driver exception was: Listener refused the connection with the following error:ORA-12514, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

We don't have oracle client on our end, so this is not a tnsnames issue. This is preventing all the hyperion services coming up.
Thanks,

The listener is up , the message is from the listener indicating the listener does not know of SID/SERVICE name that you are giving it. Manually connect to the db using sqldeveloper in order to make sure the parameters you are providing are working. Pay special attention to SID vs SERVICE_NAME. Then try to open config tool and go back to your database connection info. Reconfigure your database connection. It will likely you will find your connection error there. Also sometimes the config tool has trouble figuring out whether you mean SID or SERVICE_NAME. You can open advanced properties on the connection in configtool and specify / or : in the url.

ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters LRM-00109: could not open parameter file '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/initORA11G.ora'

I have installed an Oracle 11gR2 on Oracle Linux Server 6.6 (Virtualbox). I have the users grid and oracle11g. Add groups and install grid infrastructure first as a grid user and install database as oracle user as in documentation successfully.
I have following users and groups as
[grid@orcl11g ~]$ id grid
   uid=501(grid) gid=502(oinstall) groups=502(oinstall),492(vboxsf),501(grid),503(dba),505(asmdba),506(asmadmin),507(asmoper)

Also when I log on as a grid user again and use following commands to shutdown and start database again the STATUS of instance is again STARTED not OPEN.
[grid@orcl11g ~]$ srvctl stop database -d ora11g -o normal
[grid@orcl11g ~]$ srvctl start database -d ora11g
And also when I edit /etc/oratab file. I change N to Y for +ASM. But when restart system it seems not changed value is N again.
    +ASM:/u01/app/grid/product/11.2.0/grid:N   # line added by Agent
     ora11g:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1:Y
NOW QUESTIONS!!!!!
1. Why I can't change the status of database to OPEN as grid user?
2. The status is always STARTED when querying v$instance. İs it status of +ASM or database?
3. When checking database as grid user it seems to be Database runnning... If running why it is not in OPEN state? What is running means here?
4. When I log on as oracle user and query v$instance, then error shown above occured. And also when startup the database then another error occured as in above. WHY?
5. When I edit /etc/oratab file manually why second row saved but the first one is changed after restart the system?
6. Normally, which user have to start, stop or manage database? I think that oracle user is necessary for managing database and the grid user is only for managing ASM and Oracle Restart.
PLEASE HELP ME TO SOLVE THIS CHAOTİC SİTUATİON!!!
Thanks,

I have installed an Oracle 11gR2 on Oracle Linux Server 6.6 (Virtualbox)
Pl identify exact version of 11gR2 to 4 decimal places. As noted in your other thread - Failed to start oracle-ohasd, error: Inappropriate ioctl for device ohasd failed to start at roothas.pl - you will need a minimum version of 11.2.0.3 for Linux 6.x - using a lower version may result in unexpected issues or problems.

Cannot connect to Database: ORA-01078: failure in processing system paramet

Hi,
i just installed Oracle Database XE 10g. But i cannot connect to the database. I'm trying to connect to the database with sqlplus.
After searching for some log files i found the log-file oradim.log where i get the following error messages:
Tue Jul 18 14:36:25 2006
<INSTALLDIR>\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\bin\oradim.exe -startup -sid xe -usrpwd * -log oradim.log -nocheck 0
Tue Jul 18 14:36:25 2006
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters

ORA-27041: unable to open file

O/S-Error: (OS 2) Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Yuecel

Installation finished successfully. No error messages at all.
Was my first install and it did never work. I tried to reinstall a few time (with and without firewall etc.), but still not working.
I did not change anything after install. Just opened sqlplus console and tried to connect to the database.

Grid Erros ORA-01078: ORA-29701:

Hi everyone.
I'm currently install a second Grid Infrastructure in one server. The first one is a 11.2.0.1 and the second one is 11.2.0.3. on solaris 10. In the second installation I chose install grid infrastructure for standalone server. So, when a try to start the asm instance give me this errors:
SQL> startup mount
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
ORA-29701: unable to connect to Cluster Synchronization ServiceWhen I execute the code above, the first ASM instance is shutdown and the another database.
I noticed that in the second installation the crsctl comman tool is not installed just crsctl.bin. All steps for installation went fine.
So, can you advise me what I have to do to solve this? some documentation or something? please.
thanks in advance.
johnxjean

Thanks onedbguru, the alert log file does not telling me nothing but i'll try with the /etc/init.d/init.ohasd.
In other words, i want to be able to start asm either 11.2.0.1 or 11.2.0.3. The second one starts without any problem, after i shutdown 11.2.0.3 asm and trying startup asm 11.2.0.1 but fails. I dont know what i am doing wrong.

Multiple Homes ORA-01078 LRM-00109

Hi,
i have three ORACLE_HOMEs with two databases at the same server in two homes which are named "stg" and "infra". Yes, it comes from an Oracle Collaboration Suite installation :-)
After a restart of the server i'm facing the ORA-01078 LRM-00109 errors if i'm trying to start the infra-tier database.
Because the stg-home is the main home, i have added the infra TNS and Listener informations to the stg-home Listener and TNSNames files.
I'm using ONE Listener of the stg-tier.
It's trying to use the stg-config files with the infra tier and it fails with the errors above:
SQL> startup;
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
LRM-00109: could not open parameter file 'C:\OCS_ONEBOX\STG\DATABASE\INITIASDB.O
RA'
SQL> startup;
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
LRM-00109: could not open parameter file 'C:\OCS_ONEBOX\STG\DATABASE\INITIASDB.ORA'
Should i try to create a initiasdb.ora in the stg-tier which points to the correct spfile of the infra tier or daoes it overwrite other files after the startup? Or how could i switch the homes for startup?
My tnsnames and Listener entries seems to be okay. The stg-tier database startsup without problems.
Thank you,
Maurice

Oh, i'm using WinXP SP2 and Oracle 9i.
