Oracle 10g Database Hanging twice a day

My database server has 10g with MS 2003 server as OS.
Twice a day the database hangs and does disconnects all the users from local and remote locations.
Current SYSTEM tablespace has a size of 470 MB and is 98.86 in use, when I try to add another datafile as 'SYSTEM02.DBF' in the same path where other system data files are, I kept this operation running during weekends but datafile was not added.
Has it anything to do with the MS 2003 server no. of users.
Any other suggestions for SYSTEM Tablespace to be free.
Please reply.
Thanks

Hi friends / sameer,
Sorry for the delay. Here is the attached alert.log file Since the data from foxpro was loaded into oracle on to oracle 10 g from 7th may the problem of database hanging started from the next day. I joined the organization on 22nd july.

  • Oracle 10g - Database does not respond to the application users

    Hi all,
    I am using ORACLE 10g database with 75 users connections 50 local and 20 remote users using ADSL and dial up modem. Operating system on server is
    Windows 2003.
    All of a sudden users making the entry get disconnected getting the error as
    ORA-12516: TNS:listener could not find available handler with matching protocol stack
    Other case users when using the appliaction get their PC hanged and connection
    to oracle fails again. they cannot login to the application that time, the error is
    ORA-04031: unable to allocate %s bytes of shared memory ("%s","%s","%s","%s")
    Twice a day the users trying to login cannot access the database server.
    Front end application is in VB using exe file. When the users cannot logon
    to the database. I manually stop the ORACLE services(including DB console) and
    then stop the listener.
    This practice is going on since last two months.
    Server Scenario
    After Installing Oracle Standard Edition 10g.
    System tablespace utilization is 98.5% which is 465 MB out of total 470 MB.
    There is only one Rollback Segment named as SYSTEM.
    when we install 9i 4 rollback segments as RO1, RO2, RO3, RO4 are created
    by default.
    Do I need to add the datafile to SYSTEM table space as its current usage is 99.15% and its auto extend is ticked on using auto extent as 10 MB. I tried adding another datafile during weekend downtime. when I resumed on saturday morning I found it did not add any datafile which I had put on thursday eveninig as system02.dbf.
    Do I need to add a new datafile to the SYSTEM tablespace ?
    Do I need to create new rollback segments apart from SYSTEM rollback segment ?
    My current schema size 15360Mb with its usage as 9.32% (1432.25 Mb).
    Please reply !!!

    Currently AUTOEXTEND is ticked as on for SYSTEM tablespace and its size is showing as 99.16% (466.06 mb) used which is very much nearing to its full capacity of 470 mb.
    Currently 75 users - 50 Local users and 20 Remote Users are connected to the server. Is there any limit that Server should have limited connections.
    Server has Windows 2003 Standard Edition. Has Windows 2003 anything to do

    I had a problem of accessing Oracle 10g database homepage. After a couple of days of research and discussions with coworker we found a solution.
    Here is the solution:
    1. Find out your default browser.
    2. Configure your default web browser to connect to the Oracle Database XE Database Home Page as stated
    here:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/install.102/b25143/toc.htm#CIHHJEHF
    If this does not help de-install Oracle XE and reinstall following the instruction. During re-installation find out your default browser and configure it as instructed.
    I suspect when the default web browser changes the Oracle 10g XE Database Home Page stops working.
    Good luck

    Yes that should be possible but is it a production database or just a test database.
    you can always control that in metalink if it is supported, I don't believe it is.

  • We are getting ¿ stored into our Oracle 10g database  (Microsoft fault)

    We are getting ¿ stored into our Oracle 10g database that is using WE8ISO8859P1 character set.
    Problem is caused by the following:
    Microsoft released software (in particularly MS Word) before considering any ANSI or ISO standard (although they claimed so).
    At that time of pioneering graphical interface - they were the standard. Since then things changed. Microsoft initially targeted US marked, however very soon they wanted to expanded to Europe. For that they needed to get standardized character set instead of one initially being in use. Microsoft re-mapped character set in newer applications using Windows-1252 character set which is compatible with ISO-8851-1 (we are using in our Java Web applications). That cleared obstacles to forward on European market, where extended characters are necessary (like in French, Dutch, German languages...)
    What happened with the initial character codes before Microsoft agreed with ISO to standardize characters? Well - Nothing.
    So what are the consequences of that?
    If we are using Microsoft Word document in conjunction with one of the oldest character set (universe) the ice-age character mapping is still there. So when we "cut and paste" the content to another application, characters sets are not mapped anymore. Especially French language "is sensitive to this" The Microsoft character set in Word decimally coded 146 ( ' ) is very often used in French.
    Therefore if the text is generated in MS Word using old character mapping (universe) which we do, and using method of "cutting and paste" we are mismatching character set interpreted by other, newer applications.
    Initially in the MS words (apostrophe) ' had code 191; then later after implementing Windows 1252 character set being moved to code 146 in accordance to ISO. Well ISO threat character coded 191 as ¿. So if you are using MS Word universe character set, ' looks like ' but in newer applications or ISO compatible applications it looks like ¿.
    Can anyone provide me with periodically cleanup routines that replace garbled characters entered by Microsoft applications into Oracle database ?
    Thanks
    Brendon
