Oracle won't start

Hi folks,
I am working on a new server (VM) that was cloned from a physical hardware server. Environment is Linux 4.9 and oracle is 10.2. Here is the error I am getting:
When I set the ORACLE_SID and try to startup, I get this error.
Ora 03113 end of file communication
Instance will start, database will mount but will not open.
I used rman to connect (just to check the state) but it gives this error:
Ora 01033 oracle initialization in process
I can connect to sqlplus but I can't do anything from sqlplus. Any idea what to do?
BJ

If Oracle was shutdown when the VM copy was made then Oracle is likely OK. On the other hand if Oracle was running when the copy was made then the liklihood is the Oracle database is corrupt. After going back and reviewing your posts I see you attempted to change the archive log mode after the database failed to start. Why?
You need the database to perform recovery. If you just do a normal start the database should automatically attempt crash recovery. If it fails to do so then look at the alert log. If it says recovery is necessary then the VM imiage is likely no good to begin with. You will need to get a new image with the database cleanly shutdown first.
You can try the following before resorting to gettting a new image: startup mount followed by alter database recover. If the online redo logs contain all necessary changes it might work. But it is possible corruption will exist within the database that Oracle is unaware of. Generate a select * from every table to verify that no bad blocks exist within the database.
I expect that recovery will probably fail. Modern Oracle writes on its own behalf so recoverying using files copied while the database is running is unlikely to work. I managed the trick once back when the VMS admin he could backup the system while Oracle ran. I was lucky and the restore worked because absolutely no one accessed the system while the off hours backup was performed. Now days like I said Oracle dumps all kind of information all the time: AWR, SCN numbers, etc ....
If the source system is no longer available then before telling whomever that the database is a complete loss in the absence of backups being available then I would suggest looking for export files (.dmp). If available a full import could be used to restore the last export of the database.
Ensuring a usuable backup exists is DBA job 1.

  • Oracle 11g application won't start sometimes(jar files issue)

    Hello,
    The issue we experience is that now and then, our forms 11g application
    won't start.
    So it can be the case that, for example, the application can be started
    succesfully 5 times in a row, but the 6th and 7th time, it won't start
    anymore. But when we relaunch it for the 8th time, it launches perfectly.
    When the application isn't starting, a new window is opened having a yellow triangle
    with an exclamation mark on the top right corner.
    After a long period, we suddely discovered that it had something to do with ".jar" files.
    Because when we clear the "java jar cache" on the client machine
    (start -> control panel -> java -> "general" tab -> "view..." button -> select all the files and click on the
    cross(remove selected sources) ), the application succesfully starts for about 10 times in a row.
    But the first time we start the application(after clearing the cache), it takes much longer, because the application
    is downloading the .jar files again. (java logo appears with a progress bar)
    But clearing the cache every time before starting the application can't be a decent solution we think.
    When we enable all java debugging info in the console, we received the error below 2 times when launching a application session that refused to start:
    java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission accessClassInPackage.sun.awt)

    Anyone having a clue ?
    thanks in advance !

    Sorry, I meant WEB-INF\lib in the WAR file inside my EAR.
    I put all the jar files in the WEB-INF\lib of the WAR file but it still does not work. I have to specify them in the classpaths and put the jar files in the domains\domain\lib directory
    I thought if you put it in the WEB-INF\lib then you don't have to put them in the classpath.
    Am I right?

  • Oracle Lite service won't start

    Hi,
    I need help starting the oracle BPEL process manager.
    I have installed the oracle BPEL process manager but it seems that it won't start because the Oracle Lite service cannot start.
    When running C:\OraBPELPM\bin>olsv2040.exe /debug in a command prompt, I get the following error:
    Debugging Oracle Lite Multiuser Service.
    Service start failed, please check your environment
    For more information enable service trace
    Do you have any ideas how I can make the Oracle Lite service to work?
    Presumably that will also make the Process Manager to start.
    Thanks!

    Hi again,
    the port 1521 is free.
    I have installed Oracle BPEL Process Manager 10.1.2 on Win2K (BEA WLS).
    I also installed Oracle Lite as a Windows service.
    When I try to start it as a service through a command prompt, I get the below error:
    The Oracle Lite Multiuser Service service could not be started.
    A service specific error occurred: 4294966385.
    When I try to start it from the Windows Services system tool, I get the error:
    Service specific error -911
    I have also checked all ini files in the Windows directory and they look correct.
    Any idea what could be the problem???
    Cheers,
    Akis

  • Oracle Home Agent service won't start

    OracleOraHome90Agent service won't start on Win XP Home Edition. Was working fine. Installed Sun Webserver 6.1 and started facing problems. So uninstalled webserver and even then the Oracle Home Agent service starts and stop immediately. the oracle database service and the listener starts without any issues. Any help appreciated.

    XP Home Edition is not certified for Oracle9i Database but according to the information given by you, that service was functioning well. Perhaps the new software that you installed is consuming a lot of resources regarding the virtual memory of the machine and maybe for that the services is not starting.
    I recommend you to increase the virtual memory of your machine and try again.

  • Old Oracle 7 won't start up

    We have an issue with a very old Oracle version. It's installed on a ~2000 Windows NT4 (SP5) PC we can't upgrade for now. The database is set up to start on the system startup, but currently it won't. The log files show two ORA-00600 issues:
    ORA-00600 [4500] [10] [] [] [] []
    ORA-00600 [4510] [10] [] [] [] []
    I hope anyone knows a solution for this problem!
    Thanks in advance!

    The database won't start when trying manually (cmd prompt and Start menu entry). What does "no files mounted" mean? Will be helpful if you can copy and paste error and message text. Can only guess what that means - that the files are either not found and cannot be mounted (i.e. opened), or that a startup option prevented the file from being mounted.
    The basic startup sequence is:
    - read the pfile (applies the parameter settings as specified and find the control file name(s))
    - open the control file(s) - these contain a list of data files that the database exists of
    - open the data files one at a time (doing various checks using the file header and so on)
    If the control file is a problem, there would be a control file related message.
    The control file lists the data files to open (order is important). If one or more data files are missing. there would be error messages to that effect. If the files are inconsistent (header versions differ for example), there would be error messages to that effect.
    What do you mean with "instance"?A database instance can also be called the database engine. It conists of a shared memory area and a number of processes. On the Windows kernel, that would be an oracle.exe process with multiple threads.
    When a database is mounted, the control files are opened, but the actual data files (comprising the database) is not. When a database is opened, the data files are opened for reading and writing. This is all done by the instance's processes.
    Any more things to check? I'll go there and check anything you say I should check.One step at a time I would say. Can the database be mounted? This means that the instance needs to start (allocate the shared memory successfully, fire up all threads successfully) and then read the control file(s).

  • Oracle 10g DBCONSOLE won't start up

    Hello...
    I'm running Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1) on RHEL4. My listener, database and Oracle HTTP Server are up and running. The sole purpose of this database is to run Oracle Application Express applications. The oracle apex applications are all running fine.
    However, I cannot for the life of me get Oracle EM (dbconsole) running. I've tried everything but obviously not the right thing. I can't console to my running database? It keeps failing everytime I start it. I've looked at some logs but I don't know what I'm looking for. Oracle EM was running just fine on Friday, but wouldn't come up Monday morning.
    My url for EM is http://172.23.183.169:1158/em
    At the terminal session prompt I type >emctl start dbconsole
    It comes back after a 5 minute timeout saying it failed. It appears that the agent (3938) does not want to start.
    Here is some log info further below...
    Please let me know what direction I should go on to resolve this. Thx!

  • Oracle 9i won't start

    Hello.
    A windows 2000 server (SP4) went down after a power-cut. Now none of the oracle services will start (auto or manual). Can't even run sqlplus - get "The application failed to initialize properly (0cx0000006)" error.
    Seems that things go wrong so early that not enough core processes start to give even a log file for clues. Any ideas how I can find out where the problem is?
    Big thanks for any help here!

    Hello nbellam,
    No virus scanning software running. Everything worked fine until last weekend. I've now tried, instead of starting the service via windows administration, runnning it from DOS using the command "oracle dbname" it hesitates for a little while then I get a message box with: "The application failed to iniyialize properly (0xc0000006). Click on OK to terminate the application"
    From what I've found on the net this is "EXCEPTION_IN_PAGE_ERROR" which they explain as "The thread tried to access a page that was not present, and the system was unable to load the page. -ie. the program or memory mapped file
    couldn't be paged in because it isn't accessable any more." I've rebooted twice now and all other apps "appear" to be OK.
    Since the Server is in a different location I'm really looking for a way to fix this via remote desktop. I'm looking for a solution in various windows forums too, but so far nothing. If I get the answer elswhere I'll post it here too.
    Thanks for your help!

  • After Setting Up SSO Managed Server Won't Start

    I am using the Oracle supplied white paper to set up SSO using Active Directory. Following those instructions everything was working and testing correctly until I added the NegotiateIdentityAsserter provider to the list of WLS providers. Now the managed server won't start. The admin server starts without any errors and goes to the RUNNING state. But the Start BI Services command window gets to the wls.alive: prompt and hangs. And hangs. Eventually the window goes away and it may throw an error but I've never seen it. You can login to the WLS console and EM without a problem. Remove the new provider and everything comes up normally. I have looked at the krb5.ini and krb5login.conf files and even rewritten them from scratch without any change in behavior.
    While looking for answers I ran into the SPNEGOCheck webapp that Oracle makes available to diagnose problems. It says everything is OK until it parses the krb5login.conf and then complains that the Username associated with SPN in AD is blank and so doesn't match the SPN specified in the krblogin config. But I can't see anything wrong in the files themselves.

  • Service of newly created database won't start if XE service already started

    Hi all,
    I install OracleXE 10g on WinXP SP1 and the default database (XE) is running well. Then I created a new database through TOAD but its window service won't start if XE service already started. If I shutdown the XE service than I can start the service of newly created database. This happens vice versa. When I forced to start the service of the new database with XE service already running windows told me to refer to service-specific error code 183.
    But even if I'm able to start the service of the new database when I try to login using SYSTEM sometime it throws 'Oracle not available' and sometime 'shared memory realm does not exist'.

    And here's my tnsnames.ora:
    XE =
    (DESCRIPTION =

    (CONNECT_DATA =

    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = CASHIN)
    I also check the folder %ORACLE_BASE%\oradata\CASHIN folder but I found no single file there. While under oradata\XE I found 6 dbf's files.
    The reason why I created a new database is because I want to put Oracle files at another location instead of where XE files reside now.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advanced.
    Regards,
    Setya

    Then I created a new database through TOADDid you read the part in the license agreement that says XE doesn't support multiple instances?

  • Database won't start ... need to backup data

    Hi,
    My Oracle 10g Database in an heart beat stop working (I unplugged the network cable and now even with the cable on it won't start ... I've restarted computer lot's of times....) I've wasted too many time triyng to get this thing to work....
    I need URGENTLY to uninstall and reinstall the 10g database but first I need to backup all of the data. What do I need to do to acomplish this? Is it enough to do a copy of the D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata with all datafiles or do I need something else?
    As I mentioned my idea is to copy all that I need to restore the database after reinstalling Oracle 10g.
    Please point me a light... I'm completely lost here....
    Nuno Vidal
    -- Edited
    I forgot to tell an important detail - I have an HTML DB application in my PC that I also must backup. I think that all HTML DB data is in the ORADATA, but I'm not sure... can anyone tell me anything about this?

    Hi.
    To reinstall the database will not give you the html db repository back as far as I am concerned. If you are not able to bring up the current database, I don't see how you will be able to restore your html db data after creating a new database.
    If you are able to get the old database up, I assume you can export the FLOWS_010600 and FLOWS_FILES schema and import them into the newly created database. (Keep the database name the same as the original to awoid reconfiguring the html db ORACLE_HOME). I have not done this in this particular matter, but uses this procedure for moving and upgrading databases.
    You also have to create the user HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER wich don't own objects. From my installation I can see that these users have a severe amount of system privs and object privs, so anyhow, your in for a severe amount of manuall work.
    To manually create users, execute spool result from following query:
    select 'create user '||username||' identified by values '''||password||''' default tablespace '||default_tablespace||' temporary tablespace temp account unlock;' from dba_users where username in ('FLOWS_010600','FLOWS_FILES','HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER')
    Assign sys privs to these users by executing spools:
    SQL> select 'grant '||privilege||' to '||grantee from dba_sys_privs where grantee in ('FLOWS_010600'
    ,'FLOWS_FILES','HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER');
    Assign object privs the same way:
    SQL> select 'grant '||privilege||' on '||owner||'.'||table_name||' to '||grantee from dba_tab_privs
    where grantee in ('FLOWS_010600','FLOWS_FILES','HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER');
    Now roles;
    SQL> select 'grant '||granted_role||' to '||grantee from dba_role_privs where grantee in ('FLOWS_010
    600','FLOWS_FILES','HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER');
    You also have to create public synonyms, as these are not part of a schema import:
    Run the following query and use the spool result to create public synonyms;
    select 'create public synonym '||synonym_name||' for '|| table_owner||'.'||table_name from dba_synonyms where table_owner in ('FLOWS_010600','FLOWS_FILES')
    Alle these sql querys has to be run on the target database, i.e. the database where html db is installed today.
    So, the sequence of the entire operations is:
    1) Execute a full export of the old target database as system user setting full=y
    2) Execute all these queries described over. store the result in separate files.
    3) Execute a full offline backup of old target database
    4) Recreate database with same name as old target database
    5) Verify that tablespace that is html db users default tablespace exist in new database.
    6) Create users with script
    7) Assing roles and system privileges with script.
    8) Import using full=n fromuser=FLOWS_010600 TOUSER=FLOWS_010600.
    9) Import using full=n fromuser=FLOWS_FILES TOUSER=FLOWS_FILES
    10) Assign object privileges using script
    11) Create public synonyms using script
    12) Start html db with opmnctl startall and verify that you are able to connect and data exists.
    Good luck

    Please help if you can. Thanks.
    John

    I rolled back the latest windows update (KB835732) and rebooted. Tried to start the database services and they started. Not sure what's in that patch but I think I will stay away from it.
    I can't believe there was something in the OS patch that killed it, but that's all I did to fix it.
    So for now, I'm not touching it...

  • Agent service won't start on Windows server

    Having bounced the Windows 2003 server (64 bit) the instance and listener started up automatically as set in the "services" but the Agent (which WAS running fine)would not start automatically so I tried to manuall start it in the services...a pop up message states it could not start service and to look in event log for details...

    Any ideas? Is there something simple to do or should I try re-install the agent?

    Man, I just love to ask questions then answer them myself:-)
    The reason for all this was the recent change to daylight savings time here!
    The agent (10.2.0.2) will keep running just fine until the server is bounced then it won't start until you apply patch (5884103)...thanks Mike at Metalink!

  • 11.1.1.5 Presentation Server won't start automatically

    Hi, gurus. Interesting problem with 11.1.1.5. 4 of 5 OBIEE services start automatically. Presentation Server doesn't. An excerpt from sawlog0.log is shown below. What's odd is that even though it fails when starting automatically, we can go into Fusion Middleware and start it manually - no problems there. So it can start, and from that point everything works great, it just won't start along with all of the other services.
    Any ideas?

    Alas, although out-of-sync GUIDs fit all of the clues, that wasn't the answer.
    The problem still exists. Here's the relevant portion of the opmn.log file.
    These first five sections represent an attempted start of all services in Fusion Middleware by clicking Start All
    Request 1fa starts the BI Server successfully.
    Request 1fb starts the BI Scheduler successfully.
    Request 1fc attempts to start the Presentation Server but fails.
    Request 1fd starts the Java Host successfully.
    Request 1fe starts the Cluster Controller successfully.
    So the Presentation Server will not start automatically as a part of Start All.
    However, manually clicking 'Start Selected' for the Presentation Server (request 236 below) starts the service. So the short version is that we can start it manually, but not as a part of Start All.

  • Jdeveloper 10.1.2.1 debugger won't start  **** URGENT ****

    I posted this in an older thread at the end:
    Re: jdev 10 (9.0.5.2) debugger won't start
    I can't run the debugger using the runner: jvm option of ojvm, hotspot, or client, and can't debug a simple standalone java class w/o an error window within the same project:
    When I try to debug a standalone class (HelloWorld.java)
    Status line showed connection problem.
    got errors:
    (can't gab the command line since JDEveloper is locked up - I have an hourglass and the only thing I can do is minimize, maximize, or close it)
    c:\jdev10121\jdk\bin\]javaw.exe -ojvm -XXdebug,quiet,port2651 -classpath C:\Projects\jdev10121\MSI\MSI\
    Debugger connected to local process.
    Debugger connection to debugee process has been lost.
    Debugger disconnected from local process.
    Process exited.
    Debugger unable to connect to local processIf I try to debug using client or hotspot, the application will start, but it does not recognize any of the breakpoints at all, so the debugger never kicks in. It does on a windows xp workstation running the same version of jdeveloper. Also, I can't recompile classes and replace on the fly.
    I am able to run the web application regular (w/o debug) using ojvm.
    My J2EE settings are 1.4.2_06. This is what resides in c:\jdev10121\jdk\bin. That same path is in my system path. The java_home env var is set to: c:\jdev10121\jdk.
    I run the JDEV.exe rather than JDEVw.exe and nothing appears in the console window.
    I can't recall anything about the machine that caused this to stop working as it was working less than 1 week ago. The machine is a Windows 2000 Dell workstation. I thought the problem might be caused by adding the Oracle XML Parser to the project, but I removed that library and commented out the code.
    The only way the debugger works is to do REMOTE DEBUGGING (I'm connecting to my embedded oc4j via localhost though):
    1. Start the application using hotspot in debug mode. Note the port that is sent to oc4j.
    2. Create another project for remote debugging, and set the tools->project properties->remote debugging on for that project. right click and select remote debug, and type in the port from the other window. Once connected, I can set breakpoints and examine code, etc.
    This is really troubling as putting system.debug messages for debugging is like going back to the early days of cobol on the vax for me -- no wait, the debugger under motif in 1994 worked... well, maybe before cobol then....
    Anyway, please let me know if there's a solution to this.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Debugger unable to connect to local process
    I tried reinstalling JDeveloper but the debug function still does not work.
    I just found this to be funny:
    No search results for "debugger AND ojvm AND "won't start"". You should try a
    less restrictive search.
    Did you mean: debugger AND ovum AND "won't start"  Again, thanks for reading this? (Am I talking to myself?)

  • Intelligent agent won't start

    We renamed the windows 2000 host on which Oracle lives and now the intelligent agent won't start. I cleared snmp_rw etc and rebooted but still no go any ideas?
    thx in advance.

    Thx Pete but the emca will effect the OEM repository I am looking for reconfig of the intelligent agent to reflect the new hostname.
    Daryl thx for the reminder. My DB is 9.2.0.1 on XP but the same rules apply as Unix. It turns out I missed deletion of one of the .q files which was enough to block auto-create on atleast one .q file and leave me hanging.
    These are the steps I took to fixit:
    1) shutdown the agent
    2) shutdown the listener
    3) delete snmp* files under network/admin
    4) delete .q files and services.ora under network/agent
    5) restart listener
    6) restart agent
    7) re-acquire DB through OEM discovery (success)
    Obviously the change of hostname has to be picked up by the IA's files. If the files do not exist at IA startup the IA creates them using current information from the host.
    thx to all.
