How to start SQLPlus

Hello DBA Guru,
I installed ORACLE LINUX 4 Release 7 and Oracle 10g.
And, I 'm not sure how to start the SQLPlus.
Please help and advise.
Thanks,
Edwin

Hello,
this forum is related to forms, so this is the wrong place to ask DBA related questions. You might be better off in the Database General forum.
SQL*Plus is typically found in the directory $ORACLE_HOME/bin so you might take a look there.
And just as you know: Oracle has a fine manual: http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/homepage?remark=tahiti
you get a solution probably much faster by searching there first then asking questions in the first place.
cheers

How to start Oracle Application Server 10g on Linux

Hi,
I have installed the Oracle Appliacion server and Infrastructure server on Linux. Both I have installed under with Diff. folder
Can some one please tell me how to start / stop Appliacion server and Infrastructure server on Linux
We are going to use the these with Oracle EBS 11.5.10.2 .
Oracle EBS 11.5.10.2 installed in the same Linux server under diff. folder
Can some one please guide me.
Thanks,

You can do as rizla said or go another route.
We setup profiles to use for all of the oracle homes. Then in the scripts we call the profiles. Easier to migrate and manage in my opinion if you have multiple oracle homes. You can then use profiles when ssh'd into the boxes, too. Both ways will work.
Example:
Script which you can chkconfig.
#!/bin/sh
# oracle_collabInfra
# This shell script takes care of starting and stopping Oracle Collab Infra instance.
#chkconfig: 345 96 14
# Source function library.

How to check weather oracle db is started or not and how to start at oracle

Hi

and also how to start . (on unix and windows)
waiting for ur reply.
rajendra

Hi rajendra,
You can use the following command at Unix/Aix operating system.
login into unix/aix operating system
& run the following command.
sqlplus "connect /as sysdba"
you come in sql prompt
& than run the following query
sql>select status from v$instance;
In windos you can check DB status using MMC.
if you have any query than message me freely.

How to start to use Oracle client to access Database ?

Folks,
Hello. I have just installed Oracle Client into directory /home/myOracle/Oracle_Client. But I don't know how to start and configure the client to access Oracle Database.
Can any folk tell me how to start to use Oracle client to access Database ?

user13764998 wrote:
I have earlier managed to install the Oracle Client (32-bit) in 32-bit clients and servers Oracle Client 10.
The reason that it went well before was the exellent setup and configurationprograms we got with that version.It seems you are confusing the "full" Datbase Client with Instant Client.
Now I'm trying to install the Oracle Instant Client 11g R2 both 32-bit and 64 (of the latest revision) on a 64-bit Windows 2008 Server .
I have managed to install the driver but the setup doesn't give me any Net Configuration Assistant or Net Manager to help with the configuration.What setup? Are you not using just the zip files?
What are you installing exactly, i.e. what install media (file) did you download?
So I haven't succeded in configuring it despite I I read the readme-info that comes with the Instant Client files.There's not much to configure - that's sort of the point of Instant Client. Just drop a few files in a folder, set PATH and off you go.
Doesn't <instant client dir>\sqlplus user@'hostname/servicename' work?

How to start SAP and oracle on SUN SOLARIS SYSTEM

hi.
Please suggest
(Mistakenly we restarted the server when SAP is on and now SAP is not starting)
1. How to start the SAP ECC6 in sun Solaris.(version 10)
2.How to start the oracle in sun Solaris (version 10)
We are trying with
sh startsap SID
but it showing SAP SYSTEM NAME NOT FOUND
Please suggest'
Regards,

Dear Ravindra,
First start oracle :
login as orasid and login to sqlplus "/as sysdba"
and then startup and make sure that listener is up and running.
For that you can lsnrctl status, if its not started just do lsnrctl start.
After that login as sidadm and then startsap R3
If still if you face any error like system name not found.
then try as startsap R3 <hostname> or startsap SID <hostname>
Defenitely it will resolves your issue.
Thanks
Kishore

How to start oracle 11g?

Hi, I just did an installation of oracle 11g on my fedora 9. The db installed ok and I managed to connect as sys using sqldeveloper. After reboot, the database doesn't start automatically (which is what I want). But I don't know how to start it!!!
I looked around the net and I currently execute these commands:
cd /home/ariskk/programs/oracle/ariskk/product/11.1.0/db_1/bin/
export ORAENV_ASK=NO
export ORACLE_SID=orcl
#replace orcl above with the SID in whose ORACLE_HOME you find the listener
. oraenv
unset ORAENV_ASK
./lsnrctl start
./dbstart $ORACLE_HOME
but when I try to connect I get the following error:
ORA-12505: TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor
My connection descriptor is correct because it was working before rebooting.
Also I am not able to run em. Again, em was running correctly before rebooting (URL: https://localhost.localdomain:1158/em/ was working fine before the reboot)
Any help would be appreciated.

ariskk,
Once you have set your ORAClE_SID=ORCL or whatever your database name iis as an oracle user. Do following and post its output here? For readability enclose your code or output between \.To Start database
$> sqlplus '/as sysdba'
$> startup;
To Start Listener
$> lsnrctl status
$> lsnrctl start
To start database control
$> emctl status dbconsole
$> emctl start dbconsole

How to start a application with a login window?

hi there
does anyone have any idea on how to start an application with a login window? a login window is the first frame or window to be displayed when an application starts running. and only correct login id and password have been entered the real application will start. any sample out there? thank you.

You can start a new thread by making a thread object and passing it an implementation of a runnable object. Runnable has just one method, public void run(), this is was gets executed in a second thread. perhaps the code you would use would look something like this.
<code>
// set up thread for login window
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
// construct your login window here
// when you are done processing the
// password....
if(goodPassword) {
authorized = true; // a global variable
notifyAll(); // don't forget this
else {
System.exit(42);
}).start();
// control does not stop this code gets executed while
// the above thread is running.
// Set up main program here. This is done in the
// backround.
while(!authorized) {
synchronized(this)
{ wait(50); }
// now when the user logs in this frame pops
// up real quick.
myFrame.setVisible(true);
</code>
Hope you can figure it out.. good luck :)
