Rivaldi Try to figure out what is different when cron starts the instance vs. your starting the instance. Some parameter is getting set or not getting set. For most Unix versions the "env" command dumps all environment variables. Do that for your interactive session and then add that to the script cron is executing and then manually execute the script.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- Sent: Friday, March 28, 2003 8:39 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi Listers, Oracle 8174, HP 11.00 I got the following error when starting up the database thru crontab job at 2 am in the morning. It happened after we shutdown the unix machine. Errors in file /u07/app/oracle/admin/sfmsprod/bdump/dbw0_1705_sfmsprod.trc: ORA-01157: cannot identify/lock data file 13 - see DBWR trace file ORA-01110: data file 13: '/u05/oradata/sfmsprod/fmidx_02.dbf' ORA-27086: skgfglk: unable to lock file - already in use HP-UX Error: 46: No locks available I increased the nflocks parameter from 200 to 1000 as Metablink said. But still got the error. Any idea why ? At 8 am when I get in the office, I startup the database manually and everything was OK. Thanks.
