While i have another database on same system which is working fine.
Thanks

Thanks for reply
I applied all the thing
1. my user is already in dba group.
2. I change the permission on orapwORCL and i recreate the same file.
3. [oracle@satish bin]$ ./sqlplus / as sysdba

    Hi,
    >>do you recommend using auto undo_management instead of RBS?
    Yes. To simplify management of rollback segments, the Oracle9i database introduced Automatic Undo Management (AUM) where the database automatically manages allocation and management of undo (rollback) space among various active sessions. In a database using AUM, all transactions share a single undo tablespace. Any executing transaction can consume free space in this tablespace. Undo space is dynamically transferred from committed transactions to executing transactions in the event of space scarcity in the undo tablespace..The AUM feature also provides a way for administrators to exert control on undo retention. You can specify the amount of undo to be retained in terms of wall clock time (number of seconds). With retention control, you can configure your systems to allow long running queries to execute successfully without encountering ORA-1555 (Snapshot too old) errors ...
    For more information, you can take a look on these links below:

  • Urgent! Error: ORA-01034 Oracle not available for Oracle10gi

    I have used SQL*Plus for a while, but recently when I try to login there is this error message:
    Error:
    ORA-01034 ORACLE not available
    ORA-27101 shared memory realm does not exist
    I had search for the solution quite a while. I changed the "sqlnet.ora" from C:\OraHome_1\NETWORK\ADMIN
    I changed SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=NT; to SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=NONE and then reboot the machine.
    The weird thing is that sometimes it works after I reboot the machine, but recently this just doesn't work any more. The SQL*Plus generates the same error message as I wrote above.
    It seems like this kind of problem has troubled lots of oracle database users. IS this a bug that exists in the Oracle10gi?
    Or does Oracle10gi require to run on certain operating system platform like Windows XP Professional but does not support for Windows XP Home Edition?
    Can the Oracle company provide some error solution guide for the public for their own system?
    many thanks

    No this specific error message is not a result of an Oracle bug to my knowledge.
    In my experience it is a simple matter of not using Oracle correctly. Only it is not that simple from a pure end-user perspective as Oracle is not a mickey mouse little filing system that pretends to be a database (like MS Access).
    Which makes sense. After all, driving a bicycle does not mean one is able to get on a superbike. And if you respond "what!! why is it a superbike!?" then you need a bicycle in the first place.
    The cause of the error you list - the client is making a local IPC dedicated server connection to the Oracle instance. This fails as the dedicated server cannot find the Oracle SGA (shared memory area) to attached to. This is usually the result of
    a) the Oracle instance is down (and thus the SGA does not exist)
    b) the ORACLE_SID used by the client is incorrect (and thus it attempts to attach to a non-existant SGA)
    Reason (a) could be caused by some underlaying issue that results in the Oracle instance shutting down automatically or unintentionally.
    As for what Oracle 10G requires operating system wise. There are detailed platform certification matrixes on the Oracle web site. In addition, the INSTALLATION notes of Oracle also specifies what platforms are supported.
    You also fail to mention the exact Oracle product you're running. Oracle XE is different than Oracle Standard Edition which is different than Oracle Enterprise Edition.
    There is btw a dedicated support forum here for Oracle XE - and this one ain't it.

  • ORA-01034: ORACLE not available error while creating ASM or database

    Hi all,
    I am using oracle database 10gR2 on windows 2000 pro system.
    I have Installed oracle software and there was no issue with that but now I am facing ORA-01034: ORACLE not available error while trying to create asm instance or even while creating database through dbca.
    I have tried creating the asm instance manually and it was succeeded. Also database creation was successful through manual steps.
    Any idea guys?? How to resolve this issue??

    Hi FK,
    On Windows, it can sometimes mean that the services are not running. I have a check here:
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_check_verify_windows_services.htm
    Have you tried using oradim?
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/tips_oradim_utility.htm
    The oradim utility provides more than just the ability to start and stop Windows databases. Windows oradim can create and edit databases. It also allows DBAs to configure script-based installation mechanisms.
    The oradim utility is used on the Windows platform to perform these tasks.
    C:\oracle9i\bin\oradim -startup -sid ORCL92 –usrpwd manager
    -starttype SRVC,INST -pfile C:\oracle9i\admin\ORCL92\pfile\init.ora
    • startup – Indicates that the specified instance should be started.
    • sid – The SID of the database to start.
    • usrpwd – The password for the database user.
    • starttype – Specifies whether to start the instance, the service, or both
    Hope this helps. . .

    It is A Good Thing (tm) that you actually copied and pasted the entire error message. Some here seem to think "it doesn't work" is an actionable error message. However, for future reference, error messages are the result of something happening. They are far more meaningful if you were to also copy and paste the command that triggered the error.
    if yes can some one please guide me how I can create database...
    Easiest way is to use the utility 'dbca' (database configuration assistant).

    Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
    Go to tahiti.oracle.com.
    Drill down to your product and version.
    <b><i><u>BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION</u></i></b>
    Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab (for 10.x) or the "Master Book List" link (for 11.x) you will find the complete documentation library.
    Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
    Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> of information is available there.
    Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
    Do the same with the Utilities manual.
    You don't have to read the above in depth. They are <b><i><u>reference</b></i></u> manuals. Just get familiar with <b><i><u>what</b></i></u> is there to <b><i><u>be</b></i></u> referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
    Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
    - Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
    - Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
    - Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
    - When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
    Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

  • ORA-01034 "ORACLE not available" error

    I've installed oracle8i expert edition on Solaris but I can't start up the database. I keep getting this "ORA-01034 ORACLE not available" error message. I've followed the instructions associated with this error but so far to no avail. Please help me.

    Hi FK,
    On Windows, it can sometimes mean that the services are not running. I have a check here:
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_check_verify_windows_services.htm
    Have you tried using oradim?
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/tips_oradim_utility.htm
    The oradim utility provides more than just the ability to start and stop Windows databases. Windows oradim can create and edit databases. It also allows DBAs to configure script-based installation mechanisms.
    The oradim utility is used on the Windows platform to perform these tasks.
    C:\oracle9i\bin\oradim -startup -sid ORCL92 –usrpwd manager
    -starttype SRVC,INST -pfile C:\oracle9i\admin\ORCL92\pfile\init.ora
    • startup – Indicates that the specified instance should be started.
    • sid – The SID of the database to start.
    • usrpwd – The password for the database user.
    • starttype – Specifies whether to start the instance, the service, or both
    Hope this helps. . .

    Hi Wim
    You should say that "It may be Control File problem", but you shouldn't say that "it's due to Control File" problem
    Please refer to Errors Documentation for more information on ORA-00600
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14219/e0.htm#sthref371
    ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string], [string]
    Cause: This is the generic internal error number for Oracle program exceptions. This indicates that a process has encountered an exceptional condition.
    Action: Report as a bug - the first argument is the internal error number
