Install finally worked - but now I cannot connect

My install did work after I logged on as administrator, and the database home page came up. I was very pleased, BUT then....
I rebooted and re-logged in as my own user, and the database home page would not come up! My services are started, but when I tried connecting (SQL) I got:
ORACLE not available
shared memory realm does not exist
please help!
ps I did try as administrator again but still can't connect, same problem.

I looked in my log file and found the following errors:
ORA-00313: open failed for members of log group 1 of thread 1
ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: 'C:\ORACLEXE\ORADATA\XE\LOG1.DBF'

I guess this must be related to when I couldn't connect previously. The DBF files are there in the oradata directory tho!
It seems to be working ok this morning...

  • I changed my apple id email address to try jumpstart my account to send me a verification email for iCloud activation.  It worked but now I cannot change back to my original email address.  It says its in use.

    Hi Guys
    I am writing this on behalf of a friend of mine.  To understand my issue let me explain how it started.  My friend has a apple ID with email address (lets call it) [email protected]  when activating iCloud on her iPhone a email was sent to verify her account.  This was not done and rendered the iCloud feature disabled due to not being activated.  [email protected] is the correct email address and works.  A form of troubleshooting I used the iForgot service to test if the email address was correct and mail flow from apple was working and it worked fine.
    I logged into apple id to manage account and resend activation email for iCloud.  this did not send the mail.  I waited 48hrs but to no avail.
    I decided to kickstart the account to force it to send to another email address by changing the primary email address from [email protected] to [email protected]  it worked and I verified the address and iCloud is now active.  However now I cannot change the primary email address back to [email protected] as it says its being used by another apple ID. 
    I then tried iForgot with the [email protected] email address, it says it sent a email to [email protected] but nothing arrived in [email protected] or [email protected]
    I have this feeling the [email protected] is stuck I'm memory on my apple ID some how but can't get it to forget [email protected] so that I can use it as my primary email address again.
    I have tried to log into iTunes with my original details [email protected] and password but says its incorrect.
    any advices in this would be greatly appreciated.

    The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.

  • My Wi-Fi home network works, but the iPhone cannot connect to the network?

    Let me clarify. I have a wifi home network that my laptop connects to and now also my iPhone. They both connect to it just fine and the internet works and everything. I just tried to setup the Remote app but my iPhone won't show up under Devices in iTunes. I know this is a problem with my network because I also tried setting up Home Sharing between my laptop and desktop computer but that won't work either. It's almost as if they're not on the same network because it can't seem to realize other devices are connected, but they are all connected to the same wifi network. My laptop is running windows 7. I have no idea what to do. Can you help please? Thanks!

  • Just installed lion but now i cannot connect to my server (NAS,disk station)

    Before there was no problems, now it say that this version is not supported.....

    wftsl wrote:
    Not all manufacturers provide you with a "Firmware update" so, does this means we can't use the NAS under LION? This might be a joke...
    That's one of the downsides to using a 3rd-party NAS   (and not checking for compatibility before rushing to get a new version of OSX).
    The same thing happened when Snow Leopard was released; several NAS makers weren't ready, although they'd had access to the new requirements and beta copies of OSX for several months.  Most provided updates within a month or so, but a few never did.
    If those are your only backups, see #27 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions for some suggestions.

  • HT1222 I just installed this update and now I cannot access "Mail" at all.  I tried reinstalling the program, but that does not work, either.  Help!!!!!!

    I just installed this update and now I cannot access "Mail" at all.  I tried reinstalling the program, but that does not work, either.  Help!

    Paldeng, thanks for the suggestion.  I've done all that.  I can connect to the server, but apparently they are not recognizing my ID and password.  I can use the server program if I don't go through Mail (using the same ID and password).  My mother in another state with another provider has had the same email issue, as also my husband on his laptop who uses the same internet connection I do.  His worked fine until we had it repaired at the Apple store and all the original programs reloaded (with the required updates, I assume).  We can receive email in Mail, we just cannot send.
    I contacted my service provider, and we went over my connections.  They said it was not their problem and connected me with Apple, resulting in a charge to me because my warranty is long expired.  Apple swears it is not their problem, it is the provider, so here I sit.  My son was able to fix my Mom's Mail (she's 97) and got my husband's working also, until mine went out, by tweaking connection descriptions and ports remotely.  The thing is, we had not messed with any of those settings, so what changed?  I just did not want to bother my son again, as he has many other demands on his time.
    Since this fiasco with the Mail v4.6 update, I'm wondering if something else was updated that works well with Lion and Mountain Lion, but does not work well with Snow Leopard and Leopard.  I think the problem I had with the Mail update was that my Mail program had been renamed to Mail (original), and therefore was not being recognized by the update.  Perhaps they had another tweak in there somewhere that is affecting outgoing mail connections?

    Hi there,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I plugged my usb hard drive in and what looked like time capsule started automatically on my mac. The same hard drive worked perfectly on my laptop pc before, now it connects but isn't visible in my computer.
    My second hard drive works perfectly well on both my pc and mac, so I am not sure what has happened to the one in question.

  • Have disabled IE on windows pc and am using Firefox as browser. iTunes now says cannot connect to internet even though Firefox working: suggestions

    Have disabled IE on windows pc and am using Firefox as browser. iTunes now says cannot connect to internet even though Firefox working: suggestions?

    There is a plugin for Firefox - see here
    http://latestversionplugin.com/current-version-plugin-itunes-application-detecto r.html
    It should be installed automatically if you install iTunes, but I guess when you installed iTunes you didn't have Firefox.  Just reinstall iTunes and it should work OK  (your iTunes library will not be affected)
