Oracle and Instance Service Not Starting After Win2K Service Pack 4 Install

Please help
We are running Oracle 8.1.6 on Windows 2000 Server and everything ran fine. Our Network Admin installed Windows service pack 4 and now after a reboot we have to manually go in and start Oracle because it does not start automaticially.
I've looked everywhere and cannot find any documented resolution to this problem.
Regards,
Andy

If you completely patched your server then it might be related to the problems some of us are experiencing with a certain MS patch. Check this thread for more details:

  • Listener service not starting after installation (10g on WinXP)

    Hi!
    I installed 10.2.0.1 on a Windows XP machine, but for some reason the listener service does not start up. If I start the service from the Windows service control panel I get:
    The service "OracleOraDB10g_home1TNSListener" on "Local Computer" could not be started. Error 3: The system could not find the specified path."
    The path for the servicing exe is "G:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\BIN\TNSLSNR", which is the correct path.
    Executing "lsnrctl status" I get:

    Hi Florian,
    my understanding was that on Windows ORACLE_HOME is stored in the registry.
    I have a correct path to my Oracle home directory under "HKLM\Software\Oracle\KEY_OraDB10g_home1\ORACLE_HOME".
    Following your suggestion, I added a Windows environment variable "ORACLE_HOME" that points to the Oracle home directory, rebooted and tried to start the service again, but nothing changed.

  • HP dv3-2000 audio service not start after i run uniblue powersuite. event log says can't find path.

    after i run uniblue powersuite to clean up my registry, speedup my pc and update my drivers, I cannot start my dv3-2000 laptop. After I updated the BIOS, following the suggestion on the forum, I can get the vista start but no sound. I then checked the event log which says the audio service cannot start because it can't find the path specified. How can I solve this problem?

    If the printer is connected USB to the Windows 7 machine, what you can do is share it to the network (assuming the XP computer is also connected to the same network). This way the XP machine can see the printer on the Windows 7 computer and install it. The only drawback is that the Windows 7 computer will need to be powered on for the XP computer to be able to see and print to it. I have linked a third party site below for instructions on how to do this.

  • User profile synchronization service wont start after SharePoint Service pack SP2

    Hi
    -Using SharePoint 2010 with 1 appserver and 2 frontend webservers on Service Pack2. (ms server 2008r2, SQLServer2008r2).
    -Farmaccount has been set to local admin on all sp servers.
    -Firstly, the User Profile Service Application runs fine and is started. Dont mix it with the User profile synchronization Service.
    Prior to installing SP2 User profile service application and user profile synchronization service were running fine.
    The first thing I did after the installation of SP2 was running the:
    -psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait
    As SharePoint setup user (spadmin).
    This ran fine on the 2 front end web servers.
    However i got one fault on the Appserver:
    I have also tried:
    PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures
    which led to same resulting error.
    So I tried to start the Use profile synchronization service as suggested manually by logging on with the Farmaccount, starting the user profile synchronization service through Central Administration. This led to Stuck on Starting status. 
    The windows services Forefront had status starting, then stopped.
    One question:
    Prior to starting the User profile synchronization service through Central Administration. What account and startup status should the 2 Forefront Windows Services have? (Automatic and local system?) or (Automatic and Farmaccount?) or (Disabled and Local
    system?) or (Disabled and farmaccount?). Because i know that SharePoint UPA will provision these services though Central Administration. However what is the default state prior to starting the Synchronization service?
    So i continue...
    Since it was stuck on starting i stopped it with:
    stop-SPServiceInstance -identity <upaSyncguid>
    which gave me:
    Stop-SPServiceInstance : An object of the type Microsoft.SharePoint.Administrat
    ion.SPServiceInstanceJobDefinition named "job-service-instance-36bdf2ef-58f2-45
    e5-8f78-ab75f646611a" already exists under the parent Microsoft.SharePoint.Admi
    nistration.SPTimerService named "SPTimerV4". Rename your object or delete the
    and i could fix with:
    #Stop the stopping:
    stsadm -o provisionservice -action stop -servicetype "Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.ProfileSynchronizationService, Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles,
    Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" -servicename FIMSynchronizationService
    I also removed the forefront certificate from personal - certificate store, as this is provisioned when user profile synchronization service is provisioned.
    That set the Central Administration Status on the User profile synchronization Service to disabled. Fine.
    Everytime i tried to start the user profile synchronization service (logged on as farmaccount), left it for 10-15 min and did iisreset and restart sharepoint timer service, and also tried rebooting the appserver. No change.
    A thought, is it important to restart timer service and do iisreset on the two frontend servers after trying to start the user profile synchronization service on the appserver?
    I'm getting to the point were i just want to delete the whole service application and set it up anew...
    any tips will be greatly appreaciated.

    You're very welcome, hope it helped, if not the I suggest you clear the configuration cache as follows.
    The config cache is where config settings are stored locally on the Microsoft SharePoint server, so a SQL call isn’t required.
    To clear the cache:
    Stop the SP Timer service. To do this, follow these steps:
    Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click
    Services.
    Right-click SharePoint 2010 Timer, and then click Stop.
    Close the Services console.
    On the computer that is running Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and on which the Central Administration site is hosted, click
    Start, click Run, type explorer, and then press ENTER.
    In Windows Explorer, locate and then double-click the following folder:
    %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\SharePoint\Config\GUID
    Notes
    The %SystemDrive% system variable specifies the letter of the drive on which Windows is installed. By default, Windows is installed on drive C.
    The GUID placeholder specifies the GUID folder. There may be more than one of these.
    The ProgramData folder may be hidden. To view the hidden folder, follow these steps:
    On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
    Click the View tab.
    In the Advanced settings list, click Show hidden files and folders under
    Hidden files and folders, and then click OK.
    You can also simply type this directly in the path if you do not want to show hidden files and folders.
    Back up the Cache.ini file. (Make a copy of it. DO NOT DELETE THIS FILE, Only the XML files in the next step)
    Delete all the XML configuration files in the GUID folder (DO NOTE DELETE THE FOLDER). Do this so that you can verify that the GUID folders content is replaced by new XML configuration files when the cache is rebuilt.
    Note When you empty the configuration cache in the GUID folder, make sure that you
    do NOT delete the GUID folder and the Cache.ini file that is located in the GUID folder.
    Double-click the Cache.ini file.
    On the Edit menu, click Select All.
    On the Edit menu, click Delete.
    Type 1, and then click Save on the
    File menu. (Basically when you are done, the only text in the config.ini file should be the number 1)
    On the File menu, click Exit.
    Start the Timer service. To do this, follow these steps:
    Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click
    Services.
    Right-click SharePoint 2010 Timer, and then click Start.
    Close the Services console.
    Note The file system cache is re-created after you perform this procedure. Make sure that you perform this procedure on all servers in the server farm.
    Make sure that the Cache.ini file in the GUID folder now contains its previous value. For example, make sure that the value of the Cache.ini file is not 1.
    Check in the GUID folder to make sure that the xml files are repopulating. This may take a bit of time.

  • Classis not starting after latest Security Update installed

    On 8/24 Software Update informed me a new Security Update was available. I installed it and since then OS 9.2 will not start when I try to open an application that runs on that OS. The blue bar goes about 95% of the way across its allocated space and then just sits there and nothing happens. Was not a problem before the Security Update. How can I fix it? I still have several OS9 apps that I use a lot.

    before and after using software update you should 'repair permissions'.
    to do this goto: applications>utilities>disk utility>select your HD>repair disk permissions

  • IPhoto part of ilife '11 will not start after fresh Lion re-install

    iphoto 9 will not start. It is from my ilife 11 disc.
    Oh, I buy a new hard drive. I install lion successfully. All software works as it should. iphoto is installed then automatically updated by the auto update. Now iphoto will not open and says that it needs updating. I run automatic update and it says everything is up-to-date.
    I found another post about downloading the iphoto 9 update and running that but it will not let me. So my iphoto is useless at the moment.
    Can anyone help or has any ideas. I do not want to re-buy iphoto 9 on Apps store when I already have it (in theory anyhow)

  • Exchange replication service not starting after installing Rollup update 3 v3

    Hi,

    I hope you are following the best practice to install rollup on DAG. 
    Suspend activation for the databases on the server being updated.
    Perform a server switchover so that all databases on the server are passive copies. There will be a brief interruption in service for the mailboxes hosted on the active databases during the switchover process.
    Install the update rollup.
    Resume activation for the databases on the updated server.
    Perform database switchovers as needed.

  • Critical Services Not Starting Automatically & Access to Server occasionally dropping out

    For the last few months we have been trying to resolve an issue where access to files on the server (SBS2011 - running domain services, exchange, etc) get so slow or just unresponsive. Logging onto the server is also not possible till it starts responding
    again.
    We also found that when the server starts, the Netlogon services does not start automatically event though it is set to auto start. There are a number of other services mainly exchange services that do not start as well but it seems this may be due to the
    net service not starting.
    We have re-installed the OS but this does not seem to have fixed the issue. The environment is a mix of the SBS2011 server, two Windows Server 2003 boxes - one running Terminal Services. The other was being used for SAP but no longer in use. The clients
    are mainly XP with a few Windows 7 machines. We are in the process of planning the replacement of the XP machines.

    You re-installed SBS2011? - that seems rather drastic.  Did you maintain your domain or just set it all up again?
    This sounds like a DNS issue but have a look at the event viewer and google/post the Event ID and Source.  Given those two you can start to track down the cause and possible fixes at www.eventid.net.  Just be aware that SBS2011 has a lot of
    "normal" event errors, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2483007
    You should also run the SBS best practice analyzer and maybe run the "Fix my network" wizard in the SBS console.  Also make sure SBS is the DHCP server for the network.
