Oracle 10g Database startup problem Please help

i am trying to start database but getting error;

Please guide and help
Thanks,
Waheed.

The error stack is interpreted as follows:
ORA-16038:     log string sequence# string cannot be archived
Cause:     An attempt was made to archive the named file, but the file could not be archived. Examine the secondary error messages to determine the cause of the error.
Action:     No action is required
ORA-19809:     limit exceeded for recovery files
Cause:     The limit for recovery files specified by the DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE was exceeded.
Action:     The error is accompanied by 19804. See message 19804 for further details.
ORA-19804:     cannot reclaim string bytes disk space from string limit
Cause:     Oracle cannot reclaim disk space of specified bytes from the DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE limit.
Action:     There are five possible solutions: 1) Take frequent backup of recovery area using RMAN. 2) Consider changing RMAN retention policy. 3) Consider changing RMAN archivelog deletion policy. 4) Add disk space and increase DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE. 5) Delete files from recovery area using RMAN.
ORA-00312:     online log string thread string: 'string'
Cause:     This message reports the filename for details of another message.
Action:     Other messages will accompany this message. See the associated messages for the appropriate action to take.
DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE specifies (in bytes) the hard limit on the total space to be used by target database recovery files created in the flash recovery area. You should increase this value.
On the other hand, out from the context I guessed it is a 10gRx database, but you should specify this on your thread, as well as specify os details.

Oracle 10g Shared Server Problem Please Help

Hi
I am studying for Oracle 10g OCP ; I was trying to start the shared server feature of oracle10g ver 10.2.0.
The database name is :CERTIFICATION10g
The listener name is: LISTENER_CERTIFICATION10g Port:1521
I could register the dispatchers successully with the listener above. However when I open a new connection ; instead of going through the dispatcher it uses the dedicated connection. I tried opening many sessions but the established filed for both dispatchers remained 0
I post a dump of the lsnrctl services command below:
LSNRCTL> service listener_certification10g
Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=einstein)(PORT=1521)))

Why are the connections not being routed through the dispatchers? Any additional setting needs to made?
Please reply asap

Maybe because you have in your listener.ora used by your client only this entry:
XXX =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = YYYY)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED) -> should be SHARED
(SERVICE_NAME = XXX)
(INSTANCE_NAME = XXXX)
(HS = OK)
)

Oracle 10g agent installation problem -- please advice. Thanks.

I am trying to push an agent from a 32-bit CentOS 4.5 machine (where I successfully installed EM Grid Control with Database & that's working fine) to a 2-node Oracle 10g Clusterware/RAC, each machine has 64-bit CentOS 4.5. The questions I have are:
1. Is this mixture of 32-bit/64-bit possible?
2. When I am performing agent install, everything seemed to work (with manual root.sh execution provision) but at the end it's giving a message
"Failure Preinstall Script Not Executed, Install Is Failed. Run root.sh Is Not Executed, PostInstall Script Is Not Executed. Collection Logs Is Success."
And I don't see any agent* directory anywhere in any of the intended RAC Cluster nodes -- also, no error message log!
Clusterware/RAC versin: 10.2.0.3
EM Grid Control: 10.2.0.1
I have no clue what are the meaning of these!
Can somebody please tell me how to fix it (no upgrade suggestion please)?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I noticed that you'd like to install OEM Agent for 32bit on 64-bit machine.
Please look at the link below.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oem/htdocs/agentsoft.html#101x
Because OEM Agent on different platform are released separately.
eg.
For x86linux is Linux_Grid_Control_agent_download_10_2_0_2_0.zip
For Linux x86-64 is Linux_x86_64_Grid_Control_agent_download_10_2_0_2_0.zip
So could you please install OEM agent version for linx x86-64 ?
but I can not find OEM agent 10.2.0.1 version on link above. Do you have this version for 64-bit ?
Regards
Jason

Hi Jab
The last event is something Oracle logs per default. Every time someone logs in with sysdba privileges, it is logged to the event log. Read more in the manual
Security guide, chapter 8
Try to check the parameter
AUDIT_TRAIL
in the database
show parameter AUDIT_TRAIL
If it is set to OS and you have enabled auditing, then more events are written to the event log.
Best wishes,
Kennie

Oracle 8i Database Startup Problems

May I ask some Oracle database problems ?
1. After installing Oracle8i database on SUN Solaries,
when I run CREATE DATABASE command in nomount mode, it
said
"ORA-03113:end-of-file on communication channel" but
the database is created.
Then I run "catalog.sql" and "catproc.sql"
2. But when I "startup" the database, after the
databse is mounted, it said "ORA-01403: no data
found". I don't know whether the database is opened
normally or not.
3. When I login with account SYSTEM (sqlplus
system/manager), it said "ORA-01034: ORACLE not
available". It seems just OS Authentication works.
Those oracle background processes
(SMON,CKPT,LGWR,PMON,DBW0) already exist and redo log
file online.
Thanks a lot

Really to create a database manually is not so easy and automatically task. If you want to create a database manually you have to do this:
1.- Create initSID.ora file
2.- Set enviroment variables
3.- Create passwordfile
4.- Startup in nomunt the instance
5.- Create the database ( if this step fail , do not follow ahead )
6.- To run catalog & catproc scripts
7.- Create additional tablespaces
8.- shutdown the database
9.- Startup the database.
for more details, Chapter 2:

if you have Database Creation Assistance you can do it
easier.

Database Connection problem please help

Hi,
I have a servlet that basically connects to the database if the userid and password is correct.
I have a "login.html" page where the user enters the "userid" and "password".The servlet does the checking and grants access to the user.
My question is as follows.As soon as I startup tomcat type in the url login.html,then press the submit button,(both the fields are blank) the servlet says "ok" this is this information is present in the database.It should say "not ok".Hope I question is clear.The code for the servlet is given below.
package package1.structure;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.sql.*;
public class AuthenticateServlet2 extends HttpServlet {
private String user="";

}//closes 2ndcatch
}//close doPost
}//close classKindly let me know ASAP.
Regarding the database.The fields in the database are "username" and "password" and it has one tuple
"xyz" and "xyz"
Hope that my question is rightly put.
Thanking you
AS

Actually, I think the servlet is doing the right thing
by printing "ok". A quick glance at your code tells
me that username and password are both members of your
servlet class and initialized to "". Neither is null,
and both are blank.
If your HTML page sends user and pass as blank
strings, you'll do a database query for those values.
If they don't appear in the database, your ResultSet
will have no rows and the username and password data
members will not be updated.
When you get to your if test, neither username nor
password is null and both are equal to the values
passed in from the HTML. Hence the "ok".
If you initialize your username and password members
to null this might still work.
Be sure to set them back to null when you finish the
test.
If you take all that JDBC code out of the servlet and
isolate it into its own class, you can test it out by
feeding it valid and invalid username and password
combinations. Once you've got that working perfectly,
you can just have the servlet instantiate your
database object and call its methods. If you have any
problems after that point, you know they're due to the
servlet and not the database interactions.
Right now the database and servlet are confounded.
Separate them out and you might make faster progress.

Thanks for the reply.Will consider your points for a proper coding.Will keep posting.

Win32 Oracle 10g Database Server Installation problems

Hello,
I have recently installed the Oracle 10g Database Server for Win32. The installation seemed to be successful. I used the Enterprise option and all the suggested defaults. Ihave the following services installed and started after the installation:

I did this right after I restarted my computer.
When I use the Enterprise Manager at:
http://localhost:5500/em/
I get for ORCL:

Seems that I can never get the database started properly?! When I press the Startup/Shutdown button I get:
Current Status: open
This is the correct current database status, although it doesnot match the current status in the sitemap page
What does this mean? Do you think this may contain the clue to the answer to this problem?
When I restart the Database I get the same status: unavailable.
I need your help to resolve this problem. The alternative is to revert back to Oracle 9i DB Server. Thank you in advance.

Export and import Oracle 10G database

Hello all
Can anyone tell me once for all how can i backup oracle 10G database and restore it in other computer (export and import)
thanks alot
Ron

Do you can access to metalink?
If not, I copy an paste this doc's....
Doc ID: Note:10767.1
Subject: How to perform FULL System Export/Imports
Type: BULLETIN
Status: PUBLISHED
Content Type: TEXT/X-HTML
Creation Date: 18-APR-1994
Last Revision Date: 30-AUG-2002
Purpose
This article highlights some important points to consider when performing
a Full System Export and Import.
Scope and Application
It is intended to assist users performing FULL System Exports and Imports.
A Full System Export and Import is a useful way to replicate or clean up
a database. Please note the following guidelines when performing a Full
System Export and Import:
1. When performing the import, ensure you are pointing at the correct
instance. Always check values for the SID and two task driver before
proceeding.
*Note: On Unix systems, just entering a sub-shell, such as using
C-shell, can change the database that the import would work
against.
2. When possible, it is advisable to take a physical copy of the
exported database and the database you intend to import into before
starting the import. This ensures any mistakes are reversible.
3. NEVER run a FULL SYSTEM IMPORT on a machine that has more than one
database UNLESS you are 100% sure all tablespaces have been
pre-created. A full import will create any undefined tablespaces
using the same datafile names as the exported database. There are
situations where this is very dangerous:
-> If the datafiles belong to ANY other database, they will be
CORRUPTED. This is especially true if the exported database is
on the same machine, because its datafiles will be re-used by
the database you are importing into.
-> If the datafiles have names that clash with existing operating
system files.
4. When exporting, it is advisable to also produce a report showing
information you may need before / after the import:
-> List the tablespaces and datafiles
-> List the rollback segments
-> List a count, by user, of each object type such as tables,
indexes, etc.
This enables you to ensure that tablespaces have been pre-created
and to check the success of the import after it is complete.
5. If you are creating a completely new database from an export, remember
to create an extra rollback segment in SYSTEM, and make this available
in the init.ora file before proceeding with the import.
6. There are some versions of export that do not retain sequence numbers
correctly. It is advisable to select next_value for each sequence
after the export so that these can be checked after import.
Following these guidelines will help you to avoid major problems.

Subject: How To Copy an Oracle Database To Another Machine
Type: HOWTO
Status: PUBLISHED
Content Type: TEXT/X-HTML
Creation Date: 12-OCT-2001
Last Revision Date: 01-OCT-2003
goal: How to copy an Oracle database to another machine
fact: Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition
fix:
Pre-requisites: The copy is between 2 machines, both have to be on the same OS
and have to have exactly the same database version installed.
1. Make sure the database you want to copy was closed with a SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE,
SHUTDOWN NORMAL or SHUTDOWN TRANSACTIONAL.
2. Copy init.ora and control files to create instance and be able to go in
mount mode. Check the init.ora for the locations where the controlfiles have
to be, if those locations are not valid on the machine put the control files on
different places and adjust the init.ora accordingly.
3.a. Copy the datafiles (all of them).
b. Copy the redo-logfiles (all of them).
4.a. (Unix only) Set the environment variables:
ORACLE_SID - set to the database name you wish to create
ORACLE_HOME - set to full pathname of the Oracle system home directory
PATH - needs to include $ORACLE_HOME/bin
b. (NT/2000 only) Do 'set ORACLE_SID=<SID>'
Use oradim to create the service for the instance. For more information
on oradim please refer to (the part that refers to creating a new instance):
Note:68720.1 Creating a new 7.3, 8.0, 8.1 Instance/Database
5. Use servermanager (check the name to use for your version of oracle) or
sqlplus (version 9i and above) to startup the database in mount mode.
Do
CONNECT INTERNAL/<PASSWORD>
then
STARTUP MOUNT
Then do a rename of the copied datafiles if they are not in the same path as on
the other machine. For all the files that are in the result of the query:
SELECT NAME FROM V$DATAFILE;
do
ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE '<oldfullpath>\<filename>' to <
newfullpath>\<filename>';
6. Query the datadictionary for the old location of the redolog files using:
SELECT MEMBER FROM V$LOGFILE;
If the new place is not the same as the old do:
ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE '<oldfullpath>\<redologfilename>' to &
lt;newfullpath>\<redologfilename>';
7. Now open the database:
ALTER DATBASE OPEN;

Oracle 10g Database conflicts with HTMLDB

Hai all,
I have encountered a strange conflict when I am trying to work out with Oracle 10g database and the famous HTML DB.
It is like this:
I have a 10g DB installed and an ASP application that works on this 10g instance via "Microsoft ODBC driver for oracle" perfectly.
Now I have downloaded and installed the 10g Companion CD and installed the HTML DB 1.5 along with the mandatory Apache web server. Good!! I could scrawl through the database using the HTML DB, creating applications, forms, items and etc fancy things without any issues.
The problem that I found was:
The ASP based application that used to work initially now is erroring out saying that "TNS could not resolve service name".
I thought that the Listener might be damaged or the ASP site was damaged or the Microsoft ODBC driver files were damaged and several other vauge guessings.
I have tested the issue in several ways (reinstalled oracle, the DB, the ASP Applicaton, re-configurin listener in a variety of ways) but every time installing BLINDLY the companion CD too. Nothing seem to work.
Then I recollected that the same issue I have encountered in the past with the installation of Oracle 8i and Developer 2000, where the TNS listener configured by the former damages the one configured by the later and vice-versa.
Basing on this past reminiscence, I finally stopped installing Companion CD over the Oracle installation and carried out the DB installation and the ASP based app. And everything worked fine.
CAN anybody tell me what is going wrong with these two oracle products(Oralce 10g DB and the HTML DB+Apache)?
WHY always the installation of a CLIENT SW (Developer, HTML DB etc) damages the connection with the database via ODBC drivers?
Many Thanks in advance.
Ravi

Dera Mr. Tyler,
Thanks for your reply...I have implemented the solution that you have given for the TNS Listener conflict and everything works fine...
Here I have one more thing thats not working as I thought. do kindly help me out.
My requirement is to show the list of available storage drives (say C:, d:, e: etc on windows) available on the database server. Let me eloborate my problem well....
i have a Java App that executes a specific SQL script to create a tablespace, a user and the required db objects that my applicaiton needs.
if the Java App runs on the same machine where the oracle instance is running, the Java app pops up a list of available drives on the machine, creates a directory for the tablespace datafiles on the drive selected from the above list box, then runs the script which creates the tablespace and the rest of the things.
But if i run the Java app from another machine on the network, then my BLIND java app is popping up the drives of the local machine but NOT those from the oracle server machine and creates the folder on the local machine but not on the Oracle server and obviously the rest of the phases (tablespace creation itself) are failing as the required folder is not found on the oracle server machine.
the work arounds that i am thinking are:
a) use java ->
get the IP of the oracle server machine ->
use some java api such as java.net, java.io etc ->
create the required folder on the server machine instead of the local machihe
ISSUE: Java network programming is too tough for me(excuse me for this..i am not too good!!)
b) use some oracle sql or pl/sql api s to do the same
ISSUE: not found one!!!!
c) create a java stored procedure/function to get the list of drives of the oracle server and return as a string variable. then call this proc from the Java app once connected to the database....
ISSUE: i have created the SO-CALLEd java func. no compilation or loading errors. but there is no o/p either. but the same code when i run as a java class is showing the desired o/p. here is the code piece...can you please help me out!!!
-------Java Stored Function------
import java.io.*;
public class HDDLister
     public static String listDrives()
          String rootsList = "Available Roots: ";
          try
               File[]roots = File.listRoots();
               for (int i=0;i<roots.length;i++)
                    rootsList += roots.toString();
                    rootsList += "#";
          catch(Exception ex)
               rootsList = ex.toString();
          return rootsList;
-------Command to publish the Funciton-------
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION HDDLISTER
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'HDDLister.listDrives() return java.lang.String';
and finally the point of the problem is, once we show the drives available on the server machine to the user and the user selects a drive, how to create a folder on the server machine???
Thousands of thanks in advance
Ravi
