Starting OracleService SID does not open database (8.1.7)

Moved our 8.1.7 db from server A to server B yesterday. On server B, when the service OracleService<SID> starts, it does not open the database. When I connect through svrmgrl and startup with the same pfile the database opens. I have deleted the service and recreated it to no avail. The -pfile path is correct. The service runs as local system.
Any ideas on how to correct the issue?
btw - yes - I'm aware of the support status on 8.1.7 - and we are upgrading to 10g in ~6 months - but meanwhile I need this to work.......tia

Hi Ugonic
Moved our 8.1.7 db from server A to server B yesterday. On server B, when the >>service OracleService<SID> starts, it does not open the databaseI don't mean any disrespect but I always thought that ORADIM -a or AUTO is for "The Service Itself" whereas in this case COOKEJ is able to start the OracleServiceSID but unable to open the associated database.
Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.

  • Adobe Reader X process starts but application does not open

    I have Adobe Reader X installed on a Windows 7 64bit OS.  Most of the time (95%) when I try to open pdf files that I've saved locally or on the web the process (AcroRd32.exe) will start, but the application and the file do not actually open.
    Sometimes I can shutdown the computer and restart and I'm then able to open pdf files.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application, but the status does not change.  I still continue to have problems opening pdf files.
    I have searched, but cannot find this issue in the discussion board...most users get some type of error.  I checked the event logs on Windows and there are no errors.

    Hi Antonyd22,
    I've found the same issue using Acro Reader 9 on Windows XP.
    Sometimes, when I try to open some PDF documents which are locally saved on my computer, the process AcroRd32.exe (and AcroRd32Info.exe) starts immideately, but the window is not shown for a long time (more than some minutes); trying to start Adobe Acrobat Reader from start menu, the window is shown immideately but it becames "not responding".
    It seems that this behaviour is related to some recent file that it is not more accessible (perhaps because it was located on an unavailable network path).
    To solve this issue, try to reduce the number of recent files (Edit -> Preferences -> Document -> set "Document in recently used list" to 1) and to open a PDF file that it is available locally (in order to set the last used file); then close and restart Adobe Acrobat. 
    In my opionion it is a bug that it is still present with Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.4.7.

    Hi!
    It seems that something went wrong with your db (instance crash with database file corruption or corruption in the control file. If you just installed the database you could save yourself a lot of trouble by just running the dbca and create a new database.

  • Database does not open when starting NT service

    Database does not open automatically when starting NT service. It can be opened manually only, through the one of administrative utilities. Can this problem occur due to small SGA size? (in my case - 32 Mb)
    OS: Windows NT SP6
    Database: 8.1.6
    Ilya.

    sounds more like your permissions aren't set correctly on the services startup menu. you could also have a post-job to run after the server restarts - using oradim you can start the service and the db all at once.

  • Database does not open automatically

    I installed the Oracle 8i 8.1.6 on xp pro and created an repository, But when ever i start my system the database instace does started but database does not open,
    it says oracle not available and i have to open the database manually at sql prompt.
    How can i make the database to open automatically?
    Thanks in anticipation.

    Check your Services in Control Panel. Click on the "Logon" Tab for the Oracle Service and make sure that "This Account" is selected and not "Local Account". When you choose "This Account", you should type in the Administrator username/pwd. who can start the service.

  • I have a MacBook 10.5.8 with Boot Camp. I can only operate the Windows side. When I move into MacOS it does not open.

    I have a MacBook 10.5.8 with Boot Camp. I can only operate the Windows side. When I move into MacOS it does not open.

    Your phrasing is not clear. How do you reboot into Mac OS? /can you describe the process step by step?
    Usually, you should do like this:
    - while in win, restart
    - immediately after chime, press option or alt key
    - wait for 2-3 seconds, you should see the boot options
    - select Mac OS partition
    If you have performed all these steps, and, after choosing Mac OS partition, you cannot boot into Mac OS, then your system is corrupt and should be reinstalled.

  • Firefox does not open on-screen - looks like it scrolls off to the side.

    When I mouse over the Firefox icon, I can see that the window is open, but when I click on the icon, the window does not open onscreen and it fades in and out of the right side of my screen. Runninf Firefox 7.0.1, Windows 7 64-bit. Thanks

    After clicking on the Firefox icon on the system task bar so that Firefox is selected, you can use WinKey and the left or right cursor key ( "WinKey+right-arrow") to place the window on the right half of the screen, then adjust the boundaries in the normal manner. If you have multiple monitors repeat (3 positions per monitor) until Firefox is in your current window.
    On other Windows systems or if you have turn of one of the Windows 7 features, you can use "Alt+SpaceBar" to move/resize the window.
    Also see the following article, you may have an extension that is causing problems, so refer to the article for more information.

    I did not use my computer yesterday, and now all of a sudden, Firework does not open at all after clicking on its icon or starting as a program. I did not download any upgrades or anything else, and I have Norton 360 version 3. I can open Internet Explorer, but that's not my default browser, so I have no problem with the Internet connection.
    What could be the problem, how can I restore my browser without losing my bookmarks, settings, etc?

    If you close Firefox, then start Firefox in Safe Mode, does the problem still occur? For instructions on starting in Safe Mode, see [[Safe Mode]]. Extensions can sometimes be the cause of problems. If the problem does not occur in Safe Mode, then you can disable your extensions one-by-one until you find out which one is causing the problem.

  • ITunes 10.4.1 does not open (Win XP, 32 bit) crashes always when trying to start

    iTunes 10.4.1 does not open (Win XP, 32 bit) crashes always when trying to start Itunes.
    Tryed to repair, new installation, nothing worked.
    Can anybody help me, any idea?
    Thank you, mrlavazza

    Sorry for this late answer. I had not to time hanging around on the pc. Thank you for your help.
    I solved the problem, lucky!
    After deinstalling all Apple Software (except safari) I started the PC again and installed Itunes another time.
    It worked, so I am happy, still not knowing what was the problem.
    The best thing is, that my mediathek is still running (I hoped so, it was put on another harddrive.)
    Updates should not stress that way...
    Thanks again for supporting,

  • Boot camp does not open up on the windows side

    I installed first windows 8.1 preview then reintalled the full pro version, but when I click bootcamp.exe it does not open up. The program however is running in the background. Would I need to redo the entire bootcamp process? Cuz I really want to use my function keys and trackpad like my mac os.

    windows8.1 is not officially support at all in bootcamp
    you have to manually install the drivers you want and not rely on the exe file to do the work for you or use windows8 or wait for official 8.1 support
