ORA-01041 HOSTDEF ERROR

Dear Friends,
In my workspace we have a application which is running on Forms 6 & backend oracle database is 9.2.0.1.0. My database was running fine till yesterday but then all of a sudden i have started getting this error of ORA-01041 HOST DEF. All clients get this error after 4-5 mins of starting their session. If connected on SQL, I get the error of ORA-03113 EOF Comm. Error after 4-5 mins of connection. I have checked the alert log file and user dump files but I have not seen any anomaly in these. The database is running perfectly well, the export/import runs fine. If I login as sysdba on the server, then I do not face any problem. I'm facing the problem only at the clients.
Any clues?

Additionally:
1). upgrade your 9.2 from the base release to the latest patchset.
2). confirm the compatibility of 9.2 with Forms 6?
3). contact Oracle support.

ORA-01041: internal error. hostdef

Hi
I install oracle 9i
I selected the options to install
the Enterprise version with a General Purpose started database.
The installation went through smoothly until it reached the final step of using
the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant. The following are the 4 steps for
this phase :
1. Copying database files
2. Initializing database
3. Creating and Staring Oracle instance
4. Completing Database Creation
The installation completed the first 2 steps successfully. During the 3rd step, it
gives the error message :
ORA-01041: internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist
Any ideas on what could be causing this ?
what should i do to resolve this error?
Thanks

ORA-01041: Internal Error. HOSTDEF extension does not exist

Hi all,
In the database I provided with the commando
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE; a trace file with the Script for the production my controlfile. Now I would like to test this Script. I have install a new test DB. Then I shutdown the database and renamed the control files - to see particularly over, which error message become there indicated. Afterwards I wanted to start the Script from the trace file to create a control file. But after I STARTUP MOUNT; in SQL*Plus entered, I become these error messages:
LRM-00109: could not open parameter file 'C:\Oracle\Ora920\DATABASE\INIT%ORACLE_SID%.ORA'
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
How have I understood, Oracle tries to find the init file local on my machine. Those lies however on the server. Then I entered:
startup pfile=\\server1\oracleserver\admin\orcltest\pfile\initorcltest.ora
Can I enter a file, which does not lie locally on my computer with the instruction STARTUP pfile =...? After I made that, I become only this error message:
ORA-01041 internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist
And the database is closed. I can't connect with it.
Regards
Leonid Pavlov

As far as I know, if you want to start/stop Oracle through sqlplus you need to be using a copy of sqlplus on the server. If your server is an *NIX box, then you can telnet to the server and run sqlplus. If your server is windows then you will need something like VNC, PC-Anywhere or sneakernet to physically attach to the server.

ORA-01041 hostdef extension doesnt exist during Oracle 9.0.1.1.1 install

Installing Oracle 9.0.1.1.1 with all default values on Windows 2000 Server SP2 gets the following errors during "Creating and Starting Oracle instance" in the Database Configuration Assistant:
ORA-01041 internal error: hostdef extension doesn't exist
ORA-24324 service handle not initialized
These errors are displayed numerous times. When the Assistant finally exits, the install finishes and reports everything was successfully installed. I cannot, however, connect with SQL plus as I get "ORA-03113 end of file on cummunication channel" errors.
I suppose the original problem reported "hostdef extension doesn't exist" is the main issue here. How do I rectify this situation?
Thanks for your help,
Joe

Hmm. I resolved the problem nonetheless. (I don't know how to "fix" a package spec.)
What I did: in a previous reply to someone else's question I found the solution. Don't ask me why it works nor why it is this way, because I don't know, but at least it now works.
ANSWER: Remove the Windows 2000 server from the Windows domain.
That's it. (Even logging in locally does not solve the problem if the server is still in the domain.) Then I reran the Database Configuration Assistant (which lo and behold ran successfully), and was able to connect from the server to itself via SQLPlus as well as from other clients with no more "ORA-03113 end of file on communication channel" errors.
I know this is not elegant, but I don't have the time to make Oracle work the way it is supposed to. I just need a DB installed so I can do my real work. Hopefully in a soon to be released version this will be corrected so a server on the Windows domain can install and run Oracle.
Joe
I had exactly the same problem today morning with a 8.1.7 DB. The cause was that a function was defined twice in a package spec...

ORA.01041:internal error-- IN R12

Hi All,
While testing oracle seeded reports we are getting this error. As per the error i have checked in the PL/SQL code, i found that no views are existed in the R12 which are existed in 11i.
EX..
AR_CUSTOMERS_V -- existing view in Oracle 11i
AR_CUSTOMERS -- existing view in Oracle R12
Could any one suggest me how i can achieve this issue.
Thanks,
RED.

There is no such a document which shows tables mapping between 11i and R12. However, to determine the difference between 11i and R12, you can refer to eTRM and the Content Document manuals, both should be helpful.

PL/SQL Developer is a third-party tool and not from oracle.
maybe you have better chances in the rdbms-forum where they know more about hostdef's

Hi Rajesh , in my opinion you lost the communication with your
server . The server could be shutdown an restart again while
your aplication is running or waiting for any execution. With
Oracle Forms this happen an the forms loose the conection with
the server , but seems that this aplication was already running.
You only get close the forms , in NT , with the Task Manager
and End the Task . In the Sql Plus ocuurs the same but you can
close the section or make another conection with your database.
I hope help you ,

Use a 'Try and Error' strategy, remove the manual channel allocations from the script, these are not mandatory. Let RMAN automatically allocate channels.
