Cannot Startup Grid in 11gR2 RAC after Install Grid Successfully

Folks,
Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 VMs (main VM rac1 and slave VM rac2) with Oracle Linux 5.6 according to the website http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
Grid and RAC database have been installed successfully for both VMs rac1 and rac2.
I am using the slave VM rac2 to test Grid and RAC database because rac1 disk is full.
The problem is that OCR file is not available or currupted in the slave VM rac2.
I have created a pfile and add entry in the file sqlnet.ora in the slave VM rac2. By now, I still cannot startup Grid as below:
[ora11g@rac2 /]$ cd u01/app/grid/bin/
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ crsctl status resource
CRS-4535: Cannot communicate with Cluster Ready Services
CRS-4000: Command Status failed, or completed with errors.
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ cd /u02/11g_db/ora11g/racdb/bin
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ srvctl config database -d racdb
PRCD-1027 : Failed to retrieve database racdb

I have checked that there is no the file init+ASM2.ora in the directory '/u02/11g_db/ora11g/dbs'.
As we see the outputs above, my question is:
Can any folk help to solve the issue to start up Grid ?
Thanks.

Folks,
Hello. Thanks a lot for replying. Let's analyze 3 cases as follows:
Case 1:
If don't export ORACLE_SID=+ASM2, the output is below:
[ora11g@rac2 /]$ cd u01/app/grid/bin
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ ./sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Tue Mar 27 12:31:35 2012

ORA-15077: could not locate ASM instance serving a required diskgroup
SQL> startup pfile='/u01/app/grid/dbs/pfile'
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

Case 2:
If export ORACLE_SID=+ASM2, the output is below:
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ export ORACLE_SID=+ASM2
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ ./sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Tue Mar 27 12:41:33 2012

SQL> startup pfile='/u01/app/grid/dbs/pfile'
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
SQL>
Case 3:
Now, as you indicated, I export ORACLE_SID=racdb2, the output is below:
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ pwd
/u01/app/grid/bin
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ export ORACLE_SID=racdb2
[ora11g@rac2 bin]$ ./sqlplus / as sysdba

SQL> startup pfile='/u01/app/grid/dbs/pfile'

As we see the ouputs above, export ORACLE_SID=racdb2 doesn't have any effect. My question is:
Can any folk help to solve the above 3 issues to start up Grid ?
Thanks.

  • No bootable drive after installing windows successfully

    I am trying to install Windows XP/Vista 32 Bit On Intel Mac Notebook through BootCamp.But after installing windows successfully,when it reboot?resatrt,It gives me error message that NO bootable Drive ,Press any to key to continue.......
    I have Downloaded Windows XP/Vista 32 Bit ISO format and burned it on my DVD through Disk utility.I can install windows successfully but when it restarted then it gives that message.However I am able to locate windows hard drive after holding the Option Key and when I choose the windows HDD (BootCamp),It gives me same error.
    I started the installation in osx using boot camp, and the windows was completely installed, even the boot camp driver for windows was installed and there are options to restart into either windows or mac osx.
    But when I restart the machine and choose to go into windows, it just can not boot, saying no bootable device. If I insert the installation disc into the drive, then I restart and go to windows, it can boot successfully.
    Please Help.
    Much appriciated.

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use BootCamp. There's a BootCamp Support Community where everybody uses BootCamp. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • HT6114 I cannot log in to my AOL after installing OSX Mavericks

    Why can I cannot log into to my AOL account after installing OSX Mavericks?

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
         computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
         screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
         Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

  • Cannot print to HP LaserJet 1020 after installing Reader XI 11.0.03

    After installing the Acrobat Reader 11.0.3 update, I cannot print to my old, reliable HP LaserJet 1020 from Acrobat Reader and many other applications at all. Am using Win 7 64-bit.  Also have Acrobat 7 Standard and PDF-Xchange 4.0, both of which have become semi-broken after installing the Acrobat Reader 11.0.3 update as well.

    One of the things I have experienced in the past with printing PDFs is that it would hang in the print queue.  There is a manual method of deleting the print documents in the print queue.  But the issue is printing PDF documents that are scanned in and has maybe highlighted text or handwritten notes on the PDF.  The printer driver can render it correctly if printing the PDF as a text document.  What you have to do is change it so that it prints as a PDF image instead.
    To print as an image, open the PDF then click File then click Print.  Click the Advanced button on the following window that pops up and select the check box "Print as image". 
    Now to clear your print queue will be key prior to doing this if the print job is hung in the print queue. 
    Here is a Microsoft KB Article that explains how to do this.  I think it has an available Microsoft Fixit tool you can use as well.

  • Cannot enter text in Elements 11 after installing PS CC and LR 5

    After downloading installing PhotoShop CC and LightRoom 5, I cannot enter text in PS Elements 11.  I get the message that "something prevented the text engine from being initialized."
    How do I correct this?

    Did you reboot the machine after installing the new applications?  In windows 7 and Windows 8 it is almost always required to reboot the machine.  sometimes it does it automatically but sometimes it doesn't but it is a good idea to manually RESTART the machine.
    Hope this helps.

  • Startup choices not showing up after install of earlier system on second drive

    I run Yosemite on my main hard drive and love it. However, I have Pro Tools 10 and it won't run on the latest OSX 10.10.2 (Yosemite). So I decided to install OSX 10.6.8 on one of 5 internal hard drives on my computer so I could use PT10. So the install was successful, but when I go to my startup disk to select my Yosemite drive to startup with it again, I get no choice to select it. The only choice I get in my Startup Disk selections is the 10.6.8 drive, and the 10.6.8 install disk which is in my DVD drive. All my other drives are visible when I have a window open in 10.6.8, including the Yosemite, but not visible in as a startup choice in the Startup Disk preference.
    The fact I see everything still in a window keeps me from freaking out.
    Can someone tell me how to make my other system drive visible as a choice? I don't know what I've done to make it not visible. I've done this kind of thing plenty of times over the years, using another drive for an earlier system, but this has never happened where the others don't show up as a choice to restart, and I'm a tad  worried.
    Thanks for your help!
    Michael

    Niel,
    Thanks so much for responding. It solved my problem! All is well.
    Two more questions, if you don't mind.
    1) Do I have to do that every time I want to get back to my Yosemite drive from 10.6.8? Can I change that where it shows up all the time?
    2) What do I do to have all the other drive icons show up on the desktop of the 10.6.8 drive? Even the main 10.6.8 drive isn't showing on the desktop. I remember this happening before, but forgot what I did to correct it.
    Again, many thanks!!!!

  • Fix the: Cannot view PDFs in Safari Window after installing CS3

    All,
    To fix the problem of displaying PDF files in Safari after installing CS3.
    Open Adobe Acrobat 8 and then go to the preference menu, on the left hand side look for internet, select this option and then UNCHECK the options to use to open PDFs.
    Apply and quit Adobe Acrobat 8. Quit Safari if still running and then reopen. What Safari does now is use the default settings and will open the PDFs as before.

    If it's not essential that the Adobe plugin handles PDF files then try turning off the plugin support via Adobe Reader preferences -> Internet -> Unselect the option to handle PDF files (sorry, I'm not on a Mac to quote the exact text but it's words to that effect).
    If no other plugins handle PDFs, Safari should pick up the slack and handle them natively.

  • Letter A replaced all words in top bar and info boxes so I cannot read them. This soon after installing OS X Maverick, so I suspect this is related. Restart and Command-Control-P-R do not help.

    ? - Letter A has replaced letters of all words in top bar and  program boxes so I can read nothing, and therefore have no way to enter commands. This comes soon after installing OS X Mavericks, so I suspect this is related. Restarting and command-control-P-R have not helped. Can anyone suggest a cause?

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
    From the application's menu bar, select
    File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
    You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
    Boot in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Boot again as usual and test.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
    Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.

  • Cannot launch V cast Media Manager after install

    Windows XP, SP3
    Just installed the program (and uninstalled, and reinstalled 3x's with and w/o security programs enabled). Upon the finish of the install is a "Launch" button. When clicked, the program launches, a tutorial screen pops up, and freezes every time. I've tried restarting the computer and then restarting the program with no success.
    My husband has installed it successfully on our Mac OS 10.6.6 and Windows 7 systems.

    Just joined up. Having the same problem. Was on the phone with 3 different Ver. techs for 4 hrs. before one asked me to check the FAQS, which states Verizon V-Cast is down. They didn't wven see it! Been over 12 hours and STILL DOESN"T WORK! I'm just trying to download pics from my old (broken lv11000 env-touch) to the warranty replacement without having to buy the $card. All the techs said I should be able to download without the crd if their system was up. Any suggestions or experience out there??

  • Cannot open designer for aspx files after installing Visual Studio 2013

    When I attempt to open the design tab for a aspx file I get a popup that reads: Cannot load "C:\PROGRA~2\MICROS~3.0\Common7\Packages|FPACUT~1.DLL".  I'm running on Win 7 SP1.  Version of Studio is 2013 Ultimate.  I tried running
    in SafeMode and tried using /Log but theirs nothing related to this error coming out.  I very novice with VS, but I'm an experienced Java developer.  I actually had a version of VW 2012 Pro that I was using for TFS for a java project.  I've
    tried a repair, I've tried an uninstall.  I've uninstalled the old 2012 version of VS.  Nothing seems to get around it.  Be happy to supply additional info, but not sure where to look.

    Hello ToddMorgan,
    Can you create a new project and test the result?
    If you can open any aspx file from other projects then please copy content from your current project to the new project.
    If you still cannot open any aspx file, please upload your full logs. Please use 
    http://aka.ms/vscollect 
    to gather the installation logs. After using it, you will find vslogs.cab from %temp% folder. Please upload the file to
    https://skydrive.live.com/ 
    and share the link here.
    I will check whether your installation is corrupt when install. By the way, you may also try refer to this page:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3937135/cannot-load-fpacutl10-dll-error-in-vs2010
    And check whether the system variable  is the cause of your issue.

  • Cannot open/find libaries in Forms6i, after installing Forms 10g.

    Hi
    I just struggled to install Oracle Developer Suite 10g PS3 (10.1.2.3.0) on windows vista SP2.
    As I also have an Oracle RDBMS 10.2.0.3.0 and Oracle Developer 6i installed on ym notebook, I have everything in different ORACLE_HOMEs.
    Now, i just made a short try to migrate one of my small forms applications from 6i to 10g.
    Now, I cannot run it in Forms6i anymore, even though I have different homes and even different folders (made a copy for 10g). (In fact it always tells me, it cannot find the plls) Why on earth is that??
    As our customer still has 6i, it has to work! Other applications still work...
    Thanks in advance

    Hi
    Yes, it is only one library which causes me problems and it has attached libraries.
    After having recompiled all files (pll, olb and fmb) I could open all files, except the one causing problems. I open it, using the explorer and NOT Forms Builder. So I could at least reattach alls attached libraries (without path), recompile it.
    This didn't help, but the error message suddenly showed another pll it couldn't find.
    I start my application with a shortcut on the desktop.
    So i reattached all libraries to the "start-form" and also recomplied it. Still no success.
    BUT then i put all recomplied plx in the Folder, where all the fmx are, and now it works.
    I never had to do this before and don't really understand why, because the path where all libraries are, is also in the registry-key FORMS60_PATH, but nevertheless it works :-)
    Thank you, Craig, Sarah and spilgrim for your help! It was very much appreciated.

  • Cannot scan with my HP6210 OfficeJet after installing Yosemite

    Since installing Yosemite on my MacBook Pro I have not been able to scan using my HP OfficeJet 6210.  I have followed the instructions on the HP support page 'No Scan Options' relating to uninstalling and reinstalling the Apple built-in software, but I cannot scan either with Print/Scan, Image Capture or with Preview.  In all three cases, after adding the printer back, when I attempt to scan the first screen message is, Waiting for scanner.... and is then followed by, Failed to open a session on the device.
    After I uninstalled the software and followed the instructions to delete the 6200 file from the PPD Resource file, it no longer shows up in the dialog box for software when I added the printer in Printers & Scanners in System Preferences .  So I am left with using Generic  PCL printer software.  Also, there is no choice for model 6210, only 6200.
    It seems that I have run out of options to resolve the problem.

    Hi,
    Please try the following instructions to update:

    Windows 7 Enterprise
    I have read portions of the Installation manual, and yes, I am aware of the issues with DHCP but that's how we do things here, so I'm not going to change that setting. From reading through the installation instructions, I see that the 11gR1 installation program asked for much more information, i.e., many more decisions than the 11gR2 installation program. I do not know if this is because of some choice up front that then excludes other options. Thanks.
