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-01565: error in identifying file '<INSTALLDIR>\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\dbs/spfileXE.ora'
ORA-27041: unable to open file
OSD-04002: Datei kann nicht geöffnet werden
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.

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

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.

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
[oracle@srv1 dbs]$ ls -lrt

LRM-00109: could not open parameter file '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dbs/initZION.ora'Is it because of the softlink being present and not the actual file in the dbs location ?
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

Hi Both,
Your observations are correct,
when i gave the command as suggested it showed thats its a self link :

I think i need to recheck the syntax for softlink.

Hi,
we are implementing datavault on an existing 11g DB.The database is up and running fine , but DBCA shows this error when I am trying to configure datavault using DBCA.
I have created a spfile from the same pfile, and Db does not show any error while coming up or shutting down. The issue comes only while using DBCA. I shall try minimizing the parameters and try again.
Thanks
Pankaj

Cannot connect to database via TNS

Hello!
I installed XE with default settings and have some trouble. I cannot connect to database via TNS. Two symptoms:
1. I can connect with SQLPLUS system/pwd (locally, without tns name input), but CANNOT connect with SQLPLUS system/pwd@EX (WITH TNS NAME input).
2. I cannot start Database Home Page.
How to avoid this problem? Any ideas?

I am not able to find out the actual reasion for the same.

This error, in an unknown product connected to an unknown version of the Oracle database needs to be addressed by whatever company or product forum relates to the product itself. "DBSPI-0001.3: DB-SPI is not the Oracle database.

Hi Justin,
I can connect the database where I use Oracle ODBC Driver. But Microsoft driver didn't work.
However, I can connect to the database where I use Microsoft driver in W2K (server side)...
Catherine
Can you connect with the Oracle driver? I'm not sure whether the Microsoft driver is supported against a 9i database (I have no information either way).

Cannot connect to database host...

Hello,
First, I want to say i'm not so good in english that's why i'm apologies for this.
I try to use Sun VDI, my computer doesn't work in 64 bits that's why i use this product in 32 bits so I'm in a product envionnement.
I've installed A mysql 5 server in a 2003 server with php, phpmyadmin to see database, and when i install sun vdi in my solaris 10 i have this error message:
Cannot connect to database host...ip:3306 as user root, but when i've install mysql i've just root for user and i use this he work, and i use this login to connect in my database.
What can Have to do now? My port is really 3306 when i install mysql and the two machine is in the same network, ping work.
Thanks for yours futur answers
Regards,

Cannot connect to database via JApplet

Hi,
I created a Java application which allows me to send information to my mysql database using the jdbc connector via a JFrame. However when i modified the file to be a JApplet the info will not sent and i cannot connect to the database? Any particular reason for this?
I need it to be a JApplet so i can add it to a browser window.
Code: ( java )
private void save ()
Connection conn = null;
try
Statement stmt;
String userName = "root";
String password = "PASSWORD";
String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/DATABASE";
Class.forName ("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance ();
conn = DriverManager.getConnection (url, userName, password);
System.out.println ("Database connection established");
//Get a statement object
stmt = conn.createStatement();
stmt.executeUpdate( "INSERT INTO TABLE(Info i know to put in) VALUES('Values i know to put in')");
catch (Exception e)
System.err.println ("Cannot connect to database server");
finally
{if (conn != null)
{try
{conn.close ();
System.out.println ("Database connection terminated");
catch (Exception e) { /* ignore close errors*/ }
As i said above it works fine as a JFrame but not as a JApplet. Any help would be great.
Thanks G

Your error reporting is not good. You print a meanningless message or ignore the error.
Print the stacktrace in the catch blocks.
Change the code, rerun it and then check the Java Console for output.
I'm guessing you'll see a security error. Unsigned applets can't access the client file system. If so, sign the applet.

Cannot connect to database master at SQL server at SERVERNAME

I have installed SQL 2008 R2 in a fresh win 2008 R2. I’m running the sharepoint configuration Wizard using the database server name with the correct domain
credentials but I get the following error message. “Cannot connect to database master at SQL server at
SERVERNAME. The database might not exist, or the current user does not have permission to connect”
I‘m able to login to the new SQL server using the “SQL server management studio” with no problems. I used the sa account and a domain account.
The sharepoint server is also a new installation. And both servers have the firewall disabled.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Simon

Hi,
What is your SharePoint server’s version?
Please make sure you use the farm admin account to launch SharePoint configuration wizard. If not, please log in with this account, then check the effect.
In addition, check if you create a named instance, such as, servername\sharepoint, however, you only specify the servername in the configuration wizard. If this is
the case, change to servername\sharepoint, then check the effect.
Thanks,
Rock Wang

AHHHHHHH! Install cannot connect to database error!

I am so frustrated with application server install...
I'm trying to install SOA 10.1.3, advanced option, 1st option
When it asks me for database account, host name, service name I enter all this info in then i click next...
This is when I get the Install cannot connect to database error even though db i'm trying to connect to is on same machine!
Anyone have any ideas other than laying off medication as to what the problem is?

Check the requirement chapter in the Installation Guide, but it should be similar to:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.88 yourserver.domain.com yourserverHowever, I don't think you should change any of this after a installation...

Cannot connect to database after installing 10g

Hello friends at www.oracle.com ,
after installing Oracle 10g, I am trying to use programs like SQL*Plus or Forms Builder. However, these programs are asking me for the host string, and:
- I cannot simply ignore this question, because I cannot connect without this information.
- But I don't know how I can configure a host string for local access.
- And I don't know if there's already a default host string for me to use after installing Oracle 10g, because I have no practice in database configuration, since I'm a developer.
Please help me.
Best regards,
Franklin Goncalves Jr.

Hi ,
Few pointers which may help you , but a small caveat all instructions pertaining to way we do internally in oracle , so there could be some mismatch at customer end , but more or less logic should be same , in case you can't any step revert back :
1. When Db asks you for connect string essentially it asks for the complete description of the db to connect including :
Db server machine name / ip - that can be resolved from your system if it's a remote server .
Username , Password ,
Db Instance Name - TnsAlias mentioned in TnsNames.ora .
Now there are few Env. variables that you need to set before running / starting an oracle db instance .
1. Oracle_Home - Essentially Oralce Installation directory .
2. Oracle_sid - unique identifier for Oracle Instance .
3. For OracleDb only set T_Work and TNS_ADMIN env. variables as %Oracle_Home%\work directory and place your Listener.ora file in that folder .
4. Make your initial parameter file init<Oracle_Sid>.ora in %Oracle_Home%\database -- default location .
5. Create Oracle Instance specific services to run on a Windows machine , essentially they will be two and default nomenclature is :
Oracle Service - OracleService<Oracle_Sid>
Listener Service - Oracle<oracle_sid>TnsListener
Now in %Oracle_Home%\bin directory you have couple have tools to help you in whole process including lsnrctl.exe , tnsping.exe , sqlplus.exe .
and onec you start oracle instance like this :
SQlPlus "/as sysdba" -- OS Authentication
--- Connected to Idle instance
Sql> startup --> this will take default parameter file
Check out dump location for log and trace files generated if enabled .
Now client setting :
1. This is the place where you need appropriate connect string with all components as mentioned above .
Check out any good site for exact syntax , but you need to make sure regarding client you are using for e.g:
ODP.Net , Java Driver etc .
For Client few important settings :
Execution directory should contain tnsnames.ora
Create T_WORK and TNS_ADMIN for execution directory .
check out for listener connectivity using :
tnsping <TnsAlias>
Imp -- Include all relevant stuff in System PATH for execution from anywhere .
Once it connects tehn you can use appropriate username / password for connecting with appropriate connection string .
Normally while installing oracle you would have set the username and password to be changed later .
or otherwise onec you log in as sysdba, you can create new username/password and give it sysdba permissions .
Also imp. thing for connecting from a remote system is having Sqlnet.ora authentication file in client's T_WORK and TNS_ADMIN .
I hope it helps upto some extent .
regards ,
Mrinal
