Help with the control files, please

When I tried to startup Oracle 8.1.6 EE R2 for the 1st time after installation on Red Hat 6.2 ... I got the following error messages in the alert_ora8.log file ...
ORA-00202: controlfile: '/ora8/m01/app/oracle/oradata/ora8/control01.ctl'
ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
Linux Error: 2: No such file or directory
Additional information: 3
Can anyone help me, please?

If you were not user oracle with group privilages oinstall in the Linux operating system that could be the cause.
When being installed Oracle required this.
Privilages in Linux are giving me fits trying to keep straight myself.

  • Need some help with the colour profile please. Urgent! Thanks

    Dear all, I need help with the colour profile of my photoshop CS6. 
    I've taken a photo with my Canon DSLR. When I opened the raw with ACDSee, the colour looks perfectly ok.
    So I go ahead and open in photoshop. I did nothing to the photo. It still looks ok
    Then I'm prompt the Embedded Profile Mismatch error. I go ahead and choose Discard the embedded profile option
    And the colour started to get messed up.
    And the output is a total diasater
    Put the above photo side by side with the raw, the red has became crimson!!
    So I tried the other option, Use the embedded profile
    The whole picture turns yellowish in Photoshop's interface
    And the output is just the same as the third option.
    Could someone please guide me how to fix this? Thank you.

    I'm prompt the Embedded Profile Mismatch error. I go ahead and choose Discard the embedded profile option
    always use the embedded profile when opening tagged images in Photoshop - at that point Photoshop will convert the source colors over to your monitor space correctly
    if your colors are wrong at that point either your monitor profile is off, or your source colors are not what you think they are - if other apps are displaying correctly you most likely have either a defective monitor profile or source profile issues

  • Some help with the 10g install, please.

    Hi,
    We want to install 10g, we are currently running 9i. We want to do this in silent mode since we have so many databases to move to 10g. We've got a few questions & concerns about the procedures that are supposed to be done.
    If someone could kindly read over some of our concerns, we'd appreciate it.
    First, we used the -record method to create a response file. How much do we have to manually edit that file once Oracle creates it for us? Or is it ready to go after we exit the OUI.
    When we tried to do the install, it said it successfully installed 10g, but it failed on some of the configuration assistants. Do we need to run all of the configuration assistants? I mean, TNS is already configured. Does it change for the 10g install?
    Additionally, once the 10g software is complete, the environment is still set to 9i. How does that get changed for the silent install to continue with the DBUA? I mean, we do have databases that need upgrading.
    Any help with steps would be very helpful to us. We're getting error messages like this:
    The installation of Oracle Database 10g was successful, but some
    optional configuration assistants failed, were cancelled or skipped.
    Please check
    '/ora2/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/silentInstall2006-10-26_01-26-39PM.log'
    for more details.

  • Help with editing audio files (please)

    hi there,
    firstly sorry for posting in this section but i had no idea where else to do it.
    i recently went to an acoustic gig and recorded some songs from it using a sony ericsson phone. i have blue-toothed the files to my mac. there are a few songs on each recording are two things i would like to do with these files.
    1. i would like to split the files so they are separate for each song.
    2. i would like to try remove as much background noise as possible i.e. crowd making noise, or at least focus it on the actual music being played.
    i have download audacity but have no idea. i am looking for a possibly free way to do this and simple too. i am not going to go hardcore with the editing, just want to do it quick and easy.
    any help much appreciated, thanks, ravi.

    You need to import your song to iTunes first.
    Than open Garage Band and click on bottom Right button (View/ Hide media browser).
    Click on Audio>iTunes>Music, and choose the song you want to edit. Then Just drag to your board and this will open new track, you will see line running vertically on your screen, this is showing you at what measure your song will start, just move to the beginning of a track (if you drop it too soon, just "pick" it up again and move it). This is very useful when you are trying to merge several track (e.g. for your iMovie, as you have only two tracks on it).
    Than Split and delete portion you don't want any more.
    To Slit a track, adjust your measure where you want to split it and go to Edit>Spit.
    Hope this helps.

  • Restore my DB with the control files.

    I needed to re-install my Windows 2000, so I lost my Oracle, so I have only my data files, I'd like to know if I can get my Data on it.

    What datafiles you have. Do you have control files and other dbf files or not. If you do then you might recover your old database. You have to install exactly the same Oracle and Database configuration that you had before. Then replace the old db files with your old control files. It should come-up fine. Give a shot.

  • I need help with the https class please.

    Hello, i need add an authentication field in my GET request using HTTPS to authenticate users. I put the authentication field using the setRequestProperty method, but it doesn't appear when i print all properties using the getRequestProperties method. I wrote the following code:
    try{
    URL url = new URL ("https://my_url..");
    URLConnection conexion;
    conexion = url.openConnection();
    conexion.setRequestProperty("Authorization",my_urlEncoder_string);
    conexion.setRequestProperty("Host",my_loginServer);
    HttpsURLConnection httpsConexion = (HttpsURLConnection) conexion;
    httpsConexion.setRequestMethod("GET");
    System.out.println("All properties\r\n: " + httpsConexion.getRequestProperties());
    }catch ....
    when i run the program it show the following text:
    All properties: {Host=[my_loginServer]}
    Only the Host field is added to my HttpsURLConnection. The authentication field doesnt appear in standar output. How can i add to my HttpsURLConnection an Authentication field?
    thanks

    I have moved this to the main Dreamweaver forum, as the other forum is intended to deal with the Getting Started video tutorial.
    The best way to get help with layout problems is to upload the files to a website and post the URL in the forum. Someone can then look at the code, and identify the problem. Judging from your description, it sounds as though the Document window is narrow, which would result in the final menu tab dropping down to the next row. Try turning on Live view or previewing the page in a browser. Design view gives only an approximate idea of the final layout. Live view renders the page as it should look in a browser.

  • I need help with the navigation menu please?

    I have been working my way through your six part printed instructions and I am styling the header and navigation menu.  The bullet points disappeared which was correct and the tabs moved to the right, as they should, but one tab sits underneath another tab and all tabs are covered up by my main heading.  This is dreamweaver CS6.
    It looks a bit of a mess!

  • Help with a .vro file please

    Hi, I have a DVD-R disk that I recorded from TV in Japan. The main file is a .vro file, but I can't play this on my iMac. I am running Lion, and apparently that means it should run in Quicktime, but it doesn't recognise it.
    According to my research, if I copy the .vro file to my computer and simply change the extension to .mpg it should play, but again no joy.
    I have had a look for a converter, but nothing seems to recognise the file.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for your help
    Chris

    There is no need to convert the file... There are several programs avaliable for the Mac that can play back those type of files...

  • Help with the missing file in iTunes library on Mac

    My recent purchase, a movie, from iTunes does not appear in the library.  It shows up on my other devices, iPhone and Apple TV, though. There's an exclamation mark next to the movie file in the libaray and I did try to locate the missing file but it didnt work out. It seems that it hasnt even downloaded the pertaining *.m4v file. I also checked for any incomplete downloaded file, but there wasn't any... Is there any other way I can retrieve/redownload the missing file from my Apple ID account (because I have the movie on my other devices) to my library on Mac?

    Well it started working for me today, out of the blue.
    The only thing that I think could be a coincidence is that I recently installed Adobe CS6 on my Mac (it's likely that this is when the problem started), but today I had to open a CS5 product. The next time I looked at iTunes everything was working.
    I doubt that has anything to do with it, but hey maybe! I hope others are experiencing the fix too

  • Help with the alarm clock, please!

    i'm using the ipod mini, and every morning the alarm clock goes off with the exact same song. is it possible to make the mini choose the alarm clock's track randomly? or, at least, is it possible to choose a different song to start my morning off with?
    thanks!

    The iPod wakes up to a song from a playlist. It chooses the first song in the list.
    Although I've never tried it, it may choose something other than the first song in the list if you set the songs to "shuffle".
    Failing that, you would have to create a different playlist with a different song and select that to wake up to.

  • Can i get some help with the bing app please?

    ironically i searched all over the bing website and couldn't find the answer to this:

  • Need some help with the autosave feature - Please!

    Hello,
         I started an animation in flash recently and the autosave feature was turned on.  I had a good animation, but decided to play around with it a bit.  After a little while, I decided to call it a night and exited the program making sure NOT to save my work.  Upon opening that file the next time, I come to find out that Flash has autosaved my file while I was playing around.  Now I have a worthless animation, and have to start from scratch.  Is there any way to revert to a previous save, or autosave at this point, or am I about to do a lot of work again?
    Thanks anyone who can help.

    As far as I know, the autosave function isn't able to track down previous versions of the saved document - that calls for a specified version control system. I believe that Flash only saves the file if it is told to. There is a few ways to enable or disable autosave:
    in the "New Document" dialog. you can choose to enable Auto-Save.
    In the "Document properties" dialog you can set the checkmark.
    If these are checked of, there isn't going to happen any auto saving. The problem may be, that there is also a topic called Auto-Recovery. Recovery and Save isn't the same when it comes to Flash, but people tend to think of them as the same. You set the Auto-Recovery feature in the Preferences under General.
    Windows: Edit>Preferences : General>Auto-Recovery
    Mac OS: Flash Professional>Preferences : General>Auto-Recovery
    Both has a default of 10 minutes, and can therefore confuse he user. Please look at the document to make sure, that you haven't unset Auto-Recovery instead of Auto-Save. you can do that by:
    Go to the preferences (Ctrl+U on Windows and Command+U on Mac OS) and check to see if Auto-Recovery is set.
    Go to the documents properties (Ctrl+J on Windows and Command+J on Mac OS) and check to see if Auto-Save is set.
    The first one (in the preferences) is ok to have set. It is the second one, that may have caused trouble for you.
