well, your question was not clear, though, what I understand is, you want to move your DB from archivelog mode to NOARCHIVELOG mode, right?
First of all, check whether do you have sufficient space to archiving on your hard-disk.
Secondly, try the following, alter system archive log all;
also, give the steps that you are implementing or implemented to switch from ARCHIVELOG TO NOARCHIVELOG.

ORA-12154 error when logging into SQL*Plus

I installed Oracle 10g (10.2.0.3.0) server on a Hyper-V virtual machine running Windows Server 2008 Enterprise as a standalone server. I did a software only install and then ran the Database Configuration Assistant to create a database. I also ran the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant to configure the Listener, Naming Methods, and Local Net Service Name. I ran the test in the Net Configuration Assistant and it was successful after I changed the login credentials to use the SYSTEM account and password. TNSPING of the net service name is successful. I can also successfully connect to the database via Enterprise Manager using the SYSTEM account and password. What I can NOT do is connect locally to the database via SQL*Plus (either through the gui or command line). I get the following error:
ERROR:
ORA-12154: TNS: Could not resolve the connect identifier specified
I've checked and double-checked the LISTENER.ORA, SQLNET.ORA, and TNSNAMES.ORA files. They all seem correct to me, especially since I used the configuration assistants to create them.
Anyone have an idea what might be wrong or what I can check next? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

They all seem correct to me, especially since I used the configuration assistants to create them. Garbage In, Garbage Out.
Since Oracle throws an error, I strongly suspect you are mistaken.
Simply put, you are using something like "@REMOTE" someplace & somehow and the error indicates SQL*Net does not know to what @REMOTE refers.
How many systems are involved, names, OS version, etc?
post connection string & post contents of tnsnames.ora file.

END;
when prosess that I got error ;
ORA-00255
Please help and guide me.
Thank you

I assume they have google where you come from and you're not actually asking what the message means but just in case, and for the benefit of the forum...
ORA-00255:     error archiving log string of thread string, sequence # string
Cause:     An error occurred during archiving.
Action:     Check the accompanying message stack for more detailed information. If the online log is corrupted, then the log can be cleared using the UNARCHIVED option. This will make any existing backups useless for recovery to any time after the log was created, but will allow the database to generate redo.
As for a solution, you'll have more luck if you post in the database-general or maybe the pl/sql forum. Are you sure you got the right error number? There doesn't seem to be anything in that code that would require an archive log to be written, not that I know anything about archiving however.

ORA-16009 Error in Alert Log

Hi DBAs,
I saw the error ORA-16009 in alert log file. The database version is 10.2.0.3 configured with Physical standby on AIX 6.1 . The error is coming in alert log for a long time , I beleive after a swithover to Standby and switch back to Primary.
But I see the log from Primary to Standby are being applied and MRP is working fine on Standby Site.
I am posting the error message from alert log and trace file.

I have the follow setting for log_archive_dest_2 on Primary and standby which seems to be OK but above mention note which is for Oracle 9i server suggesting to disable the remote archiving on the standby database. Also I am using ASYNC option for log transport.
At Primary:

Unable to find archived log

Hi
I am restoring a hot backup taken through RMAN using following commands:
configure controlfile autobackup on;
BACKUP DATABASE ;
BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ALL DELETE INPUT;
Now I am going to restore that using following commands:
restore spfile from autobackup;
restore controlfile from autobackup;
shutdown immediate;
startup mount;
restore database;
RECOVER DATABASE;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
But it goes fine till restore database. At recover database I get following errors:

I don't mind if some data is lost. Will be really thankful if someone can help me get my database open;
Habib

They way you are trying to recover will try to recover up to the last know SCN. Try to do a point in time recover up to a few minutes before the database was shutdown or crashed.
Try something like this
run{
set until time "to_date('2013-09-11:00:00:00', 'yyyy-mm-dd:hh24:mi:ss')";
restore spfile from autobackup;
restore controlfile from autobackup;
shutdown immediate;
startup mount;
restore database;
RECOVER DATABASE;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;

Why archive log is full so fast?

Hi All,
I have installed 10g RAC on RHEL4 using MSA1000 as a shared storage. and using ASM for database files and archive log files (external reduandancy) with RAID5. I have allocated 100GB for archive log files. database also created successfully with archive log enabled. After that i import 3 schemas in the RAC db each of 2GB size. The import was successful and when i try to connect the schema using Sqlplus it will "archive error". archive log space was full. i checked in asmcmd also, the 100GB fully occupied. My doubt is..How come the 100GB space is filled so fast?
Can anybody help me?
Thanks,
Praveen.

Hi Don,
No error, just code from an older release! Right ?

Change Archive Log Mode, Restart instance, show ORA-12505 error!!!

We are still use Oracle 9i.
Now we want to use Symantec Backupexec 12 to backup oracle 9i.
In accordance with Backupexec's requirements. must change recovery mode to Archive Log Mode.
I use the Enterprise manager console to change it. and select restart immediately.
a error message be display in the step 2 (starting up the database). see below
ORA-12505: TNS:listener could not resolve SID given in connect descriptor
I'm a new oracle user. Hope you give me some suggestion.
THK.

If database is down, then start it up directly login to server and
sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
startup;
Read this thread for first:
Re: ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect
The main problem is Your listner doesn't know the sid in connect descriptor.
Check
lsnrctl services
and look in tnsnames.ora file - is there such sercive defined in Your connection description.
issue tnsping in order to check is it able to read and connect correctly tnsnames.ora entry.

Error ora-00255

Greeting,
I want to process using cursor.

EXIT WHEN c_order%NOTFOUND;
END LOOP;
END;
when prosess that I got error ;
ORA-00255
Please help and guide me.
Thank you

Check your alert.log to see exactly what is going on. It could be that the disk is full on which you are archiving or a corrupt archive log. You will have to investigate (or your DBA) to see what is wrong.

ORA-00339: archived log does not contain any redo

Hi All,
recently we faced 'ORA-00339: archived log does not contain any redo' issue at standby side,

Hi,
"The archived log is not the correct log.
It is a copy of a log file that has never been used for redo generation, or was an online log being prepared to be the current log."
"Restore the correct log file."
Can you say, what is last changes on your database, On log files?
Did you copies your '/redolog2/redo/redolog3a.log' log file from other ?

ORA-01033 Error cannot be traced in the alert log or v$views

Hello There,
I'm hoping you can shed some light on what seems a rather odd occurrence on our Production Oracle Instance.
Before i elaborate on the nature of the problem, I must confess that i am not an Oracle DBA and have been compelled to post this query since i have no joy from the in house DBA community on the origins of this error.
We've had an ORA-01033 error being issued by our ETL installation (deployed on a Linux machine) a couple of days ago whence trying to extract some data from the Oracle instance (during overnight DataWarehouse loads) which has consequently aborted the loads necessitating a cleanup.
This event has already occurred twice before, the first time being a month ago when the event was captured in the v$instance (using the Startup time column where the timestamp corroborates to the first time we experienced this issue and also ackowledged by the DBA team) and also in the V$Dataguard_status.
Since then, This error has been generated twice although there seems to be no evidence of this in either the Oracle alert log(as confirmed by DBA team) or in any of the v$views (as pointed out by Tom in an earlier post) such as DBA_LOGSTDBY_HISTORY, v$logstdby_state, $logstdby_stats, dba_logstdby_log, dba_logstdby_events,v$dataguard_status, v$dataguard_stats, v$dataguard_config,v$database,v$database_incarnation, v$managed_standby, v$standby_log, v$instance. I searched these views since i suspected a latency issue during a failover which could be the reason for the
ORA-01033 but found nothing.
The DBA team have pretty much disowned this issue since they claim to not have any actual evidence of this from the logs and this is the crux of the matter here.
The Problem i have as the downstream "recepient" of this error is to prove to the DBA team that this is indeed a genuine issue with the Oracle instance affecting it's availability and concomittantly affecting the DW loads.
FYI, The Oracle instance is in Failover mode, so it's swiftly back online after bombing out for a few seconds.
Also, I don't have access to the Alert log as it's a Production environment and employs restricted access policy to the server.
Having said that, Is there anything else besides the obvious ORA errors that should be looked for in the Alert log?
Where else can ORA-01033 errors be traced/traced in the Dictionary besides the Alert Log?
Thoughts??
Regards

Thank You John for that query, but i'm on V10.2 and this view is relevant for 11g and beyond i believe.
Perhaps there is an equivalent for V10g?
I am also a bit bemused by the comment earlier about no trace being left behind if the DBA's performed a manual restart, surely it doesn't matter how the DB is restarted, the event is captured in the dictionary?
In the meantime, I've got a copy of the Alert log and have found redo log issues (DBWR/LGWR) very close to the time (a min after ORA-01033) of the shutdown event.
ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG
Thread 1 cannot allocate new log, sequence 117732
Checkpoint not complete
I've looked into this a fair bit and this error apparently causes Oracle to suspend all processing on the database until the log switch is made.
Is this the causal link for my issue?
Does " suspend all processing on the database " actually translate into an actual ORA-01033 error (or some form of) when the ETL application is trying to connect to and extract data from the Oracle database at that time?

ORA-00258: manual archiving in NOARCHIVELOG mode must identify log

Hi I am new to oracle streams. I am trying to setup a one way replication from one database to another using Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) on Windows XP SP3 (32 bit).
I ran the following proc as the streams admin schema:
begin
dbms_streams_adm.maintain_schemas(
schema_names => 'XXCOW',
source_directory_object => 'repl_exp_dir',
destination_directory_object => 'repl_imp_dir',
source_database => 'PWBSD',
destination_database => 'PDVSD',
perform_actions => true,
dump_file_name => 'exp_app23.dmp',
capture_queue_table => 'rep_capt_table',
capture_queue_name => 'rep_capt_queue',
capture_queue_user => NULL,
apply_queue_table => 'rep_dest_table',
apply_queue_name => 'rep_dest_queue',
apply_queue_user => NULL,
capture_name => 'capture_pubs',
propagation_name => 'prop_pubs',
apply_name => 'apply_pubs',
log_file => 'exp_app23.log',
bi_directional => false,
include_ddl => true,
instantiation => dbms_streams_adm.instantiation_schema);
end;
The script failed the first time because i forgot to configure the source database in archive log mode.
The steps i followed to change to archivelog mode:
SQL> select name from v$database;
NAME
PWBSD
SQL> alter system set LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST = 'D:\data\oracle\oradata\PWBSD\archive' scope=both;
System altered.
SQL> conn sys/sys@pwbsd as sysdba

Database mounted.
SQL> alter database archivelog;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database open;
Database altered.
SQL>
I configured it in archive log mode and ran the proc above again.
I got the following output this time:
job finished
begin
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-23616: Failure in executing block 90 for script

I ran the following to check the error:
select * from dba_recoverable_script_errors;
The output is:

ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_RECO_SCRIPT_INVOK", line 129
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STREAMS_RPC", line 358
It seemed like it was still complaining about archive log mode,
I verified that the PWBSD db is in archivelog mode by running the following:
select name, log_mode from v$database;
NAME: PWBSD
LOG_MODE: ARCHIVELOG
What could be the problem and how do i proceed to fix it?

Hi Parthiv,
The steps given by you is not clear.
please try to fallow the steps given in the below link. It may be helpful to you to setup schema level streams:

ORA-19571: archived-log recid 118360 stamp not found in control file - help

Hi
Every backup I do I am getting an error like below at the bottom :, every backup I do, it's complaaining about DIFFERENT archive log.
ORA-19571: archived-log recid 118360 stamp 705446770 not found in control file.
I have set keep control file info to 14 days, my retention is 7 days in RMAN, so I don't know why it's complaining, below is the full log.
It seeems to be having problems with archive logs that have just been generated while it's doing the backup I think??

It's a rac, so shall I restart one instance at a time?? Or the whole thing? I am using an recovery catalog, so should I be connected to the recovery catalog Or control file to do a cross check backup, also when it's doing the backup do u recon it can't fing archivelog in controlfile file as it's not done a resync, should I force it to do a resync after a backup then backup the archive logs??? I really don't want to bounce the db as it's 24/7

no longer needed for this recoveryis an error or not . Doest it mean that all ORA - messages are not errors ? I was told that the archived logs are applied successfully and no need to worry .Have a look into the error message documentation :
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14219/e0.htm#sthref202
"+*ORA-00278: log file "string" no longer needed for this recovery *+
+*Cause*: The specified redo log file is no longer needed for the current recovery.+
+*Action*: No action required. The archived redo log file may be removed from its current location to conserve disk space, if needed. However, the redo log file may still be required for another recovery session in the future.+"
