If your oracle service pointing to another locatiion, Then kindly check the PFILE location is exist or not.

Hi,
We are having oracle 10g database on AIX platform.As of now,Our database is running on pfile and We wanted the database to run on spfile.I tried to create the spfile and It is throwing the below error.Could somebody help me out on this issue...

I read the following old thread in this discussion forum related to this error , but I could not find a solution in that thread.
error occured processing parameter

Hi Satish,
I'm not sure.I have taken up this project recently and seeing lot of issues with the databases,might be lack of proper administration.
For some other database also I'm getting the same error for the parameter 'job_queue_interval'
SQL> create spfile from pfile;
create spfile from pfile
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
ORA-32003: error occured processing parameter 'job_queue_interval'

If these are the parameters from oracle 8.1.7,can I comment these out.
or How can I resolve these issues related to the parameters.

Obsolete parameters in pfile

Hi,
We have Oracle 10.2.0.3 database on AIX platform.For long ,our database has been running on pfile.We wanted our database to run on spfile and in that process,when we tried to "create spfile from pfile " we are getting the following errors.
SQL> create spfile from pfile;
create spfile from pfile
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
ORA-32003: error occured processing parameter 'distributed_transactions'
LRM-00101: unknown parameter name 'distributed_transactions'
and similarly, for some other database,
SQL> create spfile from pfile;
create spfile from pfile
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
ORA-32003: error occured processing parameter 'job_queue_interval'
LRM-00101: unknown parameter name 'job_queue_interval'
As 'distributed_transactions' and 'job_queue_interval' are obsolete parameters ,can I remove these parameter settings from pfile and go ahead creating the spfile or will it have some impact??
Could you please help us in resolving this issue....

Starting database using PFILE

Hello, Gurus.
I am a newbie to Oracle. Need to modify the paramters for database, so the use of Pfile is required. But even the Pfile created by oracle is not working correctly.
Below shows the error messages:
SQL> create pfile='C:\responsefiles\oraclesetup\win\pfileoXXbg.ORA' from spfile;
File created.
Now when I am trying to use this file to start the instance, I am getting the error:
C:\Windows\system32>oradim -STARTUP -SID OXXBG -STARTTYPE inst -PFILE 'C:\responsefiles\oraclesetup\win\pfileoXXbg.ORA'
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
I have not modifed or put any comments in the above file, so could not understand the reason for error mesaages. I can start the instance without using PFILE option.
Any ideas are welcome.

i already installed sun studio 11 but i got have the same problem

Solaris 10 comes with ipfilter already installed. You probably don't want to monkey around with the version, just use the one thats there.
Unless the new version has some feature you really can't live without..

Spfile problem.....

hi all experts
topay. after installing oracle 9i database on my machine
i try to create spfile.
when i issue
SQL> CREATE SPFILE FROM PFILE;
CREATE SPFILE FROM PFILE
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-32002: cannot create SPFILE already being used by the instance
---ok i think it means oracle instance use this spfile
--no problem i try another way
SQL> CREATE SPFILE ='E:\NEWSP.ORA' FROM PFILE;
CREATE SPFILE ='E:\NEWSP.ORA' FROM PFILE
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
LRM-00109: could not open parameter file 'E:\ORACLE9IDB\DATABASE\INITORACLE9I.ORA'
when i open this dir there is no pfile
but pfile is actually reside on another
dir
E:\ORA\ADMIN\new8i\pfile\init.ora --new8i is database name
but actual it is a text file
but in 8i its a ora file now i have no idea on 9i
so what will i do to create spfile in newly install system
i think
first i create init.ora file from spfile(that is default )
after it i create spfile from this init.ora file
plz help to sole my problem
so give step by step solution to create spfile in new system
thanks
kuljeet pal singh

Hi,
The specific steps to create spfile are :
create spfile = <spfile_name>
from pfile = <pfile_name>
where spfile is the name of the file to be created
pfile is the name of the init.ora file to be used.
IT REQUIRES SYSDBA OR SYSOPER ROLE TO EXECUTE
You cannot recreate an spfile if the instance was started with the one you are trying to recreate . If so you will get the error which you are getting. You can delete the
spfile and recreate it from the pfile and next time
the instance is started it will read the init ora parameters from the current spfile.
hope this works.

Error when Starting from PFILE

Hi!
I am in the process of setting up a standby database. The primary is also in the same host as the Standby.
When I create a pfile from the spfile of the primary and try to start the Standby database from the pfile, after changing the appropriate parameters, I get this error
SQL> conn sys/oracle as sysdba;
Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> startup nomount pfile = 'C:\oracle9i\oradata\STBY\initstby2.ora'
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
But clearly I have connected as sys user... Please help me..
Thanks
Radhika

Radhika,
While creating the pfile for Standby d/b sis u issue the following command on the primary d/b :
- ALTER DATABASE CREATE STANDBY CONTROLFILE AS
'<path of the stdby control file>';
Can I also suggest you to refer to the Data Guard Concepts & Administration Guide. This guide gives a step by step procedure of what exactly a Data Guard configuration is all about and an example to set up a Data Guard Enviornment.
Also I belive since you are a SQL Server Administrator , its also import you go tthrough the Oracle 9i d/b Concepts guide. You do not want to be creating a MAA configuration directly without knowing Oracle internals.
If you have taken the time out to read both the Concepts Guide & the Data Guard guide & you are still facing problems get back on this thread.
Cheers...rCube

Pfile creation error

Hi,
Oracle version 10g r2, solaris 10
I tried to create pfile from spfile and got this error. I'm using the sysdba login.
This is the first time i faced this error....
SQL> create pfile='/reuters/home/oracle/pfileMCRMDEV4_19_06_08' from spfile;
create pfile='/reuters/home/oracle/pfileMCRMDEV4_19_06_08' from spfile
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
SVR4 Error: 2: No such file or directory
Additional information: 3

No value!!! Does it mean db has actually not started from spfile?
Yes. Paulo
Sorry to differ NO value means it is PFILEWhich means the database has not been started with spfile... Paolo is right.

Remote system Producing Errors "In sufficient Privileges" while running scr

Hi
I have Machine with Oracle 10g 64bit(software only) on windows 2003 server and that machine located at Remotely(UK)
In fact i d'not know who installed the Oracle on that machine,
To access that mechine they given user/password to me
Now I have to run a script from here(script will create INSTANCE,OFA,DATABASE,changing SYS SYSTEM password,and final it create USER for that DATABSE which is created by script)
here problem is script able to Create INSTANCE,OFA but it unable to create DATABASE in this part it is giving Error saying that
"In sufficient Privileges"
I tried with Command prompt like
setted Oracle_sid,Oracle_home
1.C:>sqlplus sys/change_on_install as sysdba
or
2.C:>sqlplus system/manager
3.SQL>startup nomount pfile='<pfilepath>"
In above 3 cases it is giving same error “ In sufficient Privileges"
1.What may be that reason it is producing errors

Try adding the windows user you're logging in with to the windows machine to the Administrators group. Also check the persmissions of the pfile and subdirectories.

Error while updating table in database.

Hi,
While updating a table I came across following error-
ORA-01552: cannot use system rollback segment for non-system tablespace 'USERS'
I have following undo parameters set in my parameter file-
undo_management=auto
undo_tablespace=UNDOTBS1
If I have seperate undo tablespace then why Oracle is trying to use System undo segments?
Thanks,

Let's assume your settings are correct. However the error means you don't have an UNDO tablespace available. It could be because your tablespace doesn't exist, or you think you have started up your instance with this initialization parameter file.
You should make sure you have your undo tablespace attached to your database, and you are using your correct initialization file.
Have you edited this parameter in your pfile? Or have you configured this parameter in you spfile?
Issue a query against v$rollname, you should see something simmilar to this:
SQL> SELECT * FROM V$ROLLNAME;
USN NAME
0 SYSTEM
1 _SYSSMU1$
2 _SYSSMU2$
3 _SYSSMU3$
4 _SYSSMU4$
5 _SYSSMU5$
6 _SYSSMU6$
7 _SYSSMU7$
8 _SYSSMU8$
9 _SYSSMU9$
10 _SYSSMU10$
If you can't then definitely you are not starting up your database with undo segments.
