Can anyone confirm it?

Hi Chris!
The $OH and the $SID is correct. I can do a "/ as sysdba" without any problem.
I found the log at /cfgtoollogs. Except a "ORA-01034 error - Oracle not available" it does not give me any clues.
There is an issue with this install however: If i set the $OH without a trailing /, I get an error saying "Connected to an idle instance" when connecting "/ as sysdba". If I add the trailing / it works nicely. Could this be a part of the problem? From what I've seen earlier its the opposite that have been a problem.
Where does emca get the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID information? There are no changes in how emca responds whether I use a trailing / or not.
Any idea?
Thanks
