Re: can't create database [INFO]

2003-03-24 Thread Schwerdtfeger,
Just a note for everyone.
Installing the glibc 2.3.2 helped running Oracle, but the OUI
won't run anymore because of problems with the JRE 1.3.1
(Missing link in jre/lib/libjava.so).

I tried replacing the 1.3.1 JRE with the one of JDK 1.3.1, but the
OUI won't start.
Not giving any message, just didn't start.

But the database works, so I guess I won't need the installer again
for a while ;)

Ok, I just deinstalled Oracle 9i and installed 8.1.7 which ran - after
applying the patch - without any problems ... dunno why.
Maybe I should try to apply the 8.1.7-glibc patch to the 9i?
  
   
   Try Oracle 9.2.0.  I have installed it on many linux platforms
   without any tricks.  I think you said you were using 9.0.x.  
   I never had any desire to go there, so I don't know what 
   may be at issue.
   
  
  I AM using Oracle 9.2.0 - or trying to use it.
  As I wrote, Oracle 8i (8.1.7) worked without any problems, but 9i
  (9.2.0.1.0 - EE) is a pain in the a$$.
  
  I do it the same way as with the 8.1.7.
  I don't have any problems during the installation (ok, a problem with
  the ins_ctx.mk, but this is fixed by adding $(LDLIBFLAG)dl).
  I use the dbca to create a script for the database and login via
  sqlplus /nolog

Hi,

This site has a good description of how to use the ipcs and ipcrm commands to
clean up these left-over memory segments following the shutdown. I've found
that using the technique shown on this site minimizes the need to reboot when
this problem occurs.

Hope this helps,

   Hi there.
   
   I have a similiar problem with Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 
  under Linux (Debian,
   Woody, Kernel 2.4.20-686-smp).
   The installation worked fine - at least no error 
  message was shown,
   but when I start the dbca to create a database, I 
  get an ORA-03113.
   I've searched over the internet (newsgroups and 
  webpages), but I
   didn't
   find a solution for my problem.
   I searched for the libc-patch, but I think it's 
  deprecated for
   Oracle
   9i.
   Many ppl said, like you, I just should generate the 
  scripts with the
   
   wizard and create the database manually, so I did - 
  or at least I
   tried.
   
   So, I just wanted to test, if the login works, but 
  it didn't.
   Is startet sqlplus /nolog and tried connect 
  SYS/change_on_install
   as
   SYSDBA (conn / as SYSDBA has the same effect, 
  ORACLE_SID set as
   said
   in the script) and I get:
   
 Connected to an idle instance.
   
   Ok, I think this is just normal and I tried to 
  start the database
   using
   startup nomount pfile=Correct path to init.ora;
   
   And then, all I get is an ORA-03113: end-of-file on 
  communication
   channel
   
   If I try to do a conn / afterwards, I get
 ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
 ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
 Linux Error: 2: No such file or directory
   
   Any suggestions, what could be wrong? I installed 
  the Enterprise
   Version, so it can't be an Enterprise setting ... 
  it has to be a
   problem
   in the init.ora, right?
   
   System specs if required:
   Pentium II, 800 (2x - multi processor)
   1024MB RAM
   4GB Swap
   19GB diskspace free
   Debian Linux (woody)
   Kernel 2.4.20-686-smp
   
   Any help would be appreciated.

AW: can't create database

2003-03-12 Thread Kulev, Milen
Title: RE: LMT monitoring



Hi Milen,
1) Have you relinked the executables during installation phase(applying 
stubs patch supplied by Oracle) ? 
2) Create DB creating scripts with dbassist. Then perform each step 
written in *.SQL  *.sh files
separately, while watching ALERT.LOG. This approach can help you localize 
at which step the problem appears.

Best wishes
Milen Kulev

 The first problem was that the init_sid.ora file was created a directory different

 one of the init parameters was for Enterprise Edition and I was installing Standard

 Both problems resulted in the message of 'not connected to oracle'.

 If yes, then it sounds like you need to install the glibc stubs patch.
 If no, then I don't know what the problem might be.

Try Oracle 9.2.0.  I have installed it on many linux platforms
without any tricks.  I think you said you were using 9.0.x.  
I never had any desire to go there, so I don't know what 
may be at issue.

I AM using Oracle 9.2.0 - or trying to use it.
As I wrote, Oracle 8i (8.1.7) worked without any problems, but 9i
(9.2.0.1.0 - EE) is a pain in the a$$.

I do it the same way as with the 8.1.7.
I don't have any problems during the installation (ok, a problem with
the ins_ctx.mk, but this is fixed by adding $(LDLIBFLAG)dl).
I use the dbca to create a script for the database and login via
sqlplus /nolog and do a conn / as sysdba and I get a
Connected to an idle instance

But, if I try to startup nomount pfile=...;, I get an ORA-03113.

I have applied the 8.1.7-glibc patch at the 9.2.0 version of Oracle,
just for testing, but it didn't change anything.
I've also done a relink /all ... didn't help.

This is my init.ora:

db_block_size=8192
db_cache_size=25165824
db_file_multiblock_read_count=16

open_cursors=300

control_files=(/home/oracle/oradata/sc/control01.ctl,

Re: can't create database

2003-03-12 Thread Boyle Candi
I've had this problem on linux.  Best and fastest solution:  reboot the
server.  There is a memory issue preventing you from starting oracle.  I
just had it happen about 2 minutes ago on an upgrade to 9i.  Reboot, and
now I can start the db.

but when I start the dbca to create a database, I get an ORA-03113.
I've searched over the internet (newsgroups and webpages), but I didn't
find a solution for my problem.
I searched for the libc-patch, but I think it's deprecated for Oracle
9i.
Many ppl said, like you, I just should generate the scripts with the 
wizard and create the database manually, so I did - or at least I tried.

So, I just wanted to test, if the login works, but it didn't.
Is startet sqlplus /nolog and tried connect SYS/change_on_install as
SYSDBA (conn / as SYSDBA has the same effect, ORACLE_SID set as said
in the script) and I get:

Connected to an idle instance.

Ok, I think this is just normal and I tried to start the database using
startup nomount pfile=Correct path to init.ora;

And then, all I get is an ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication
channel

If I try to do a conn / afterwards, I get
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
Linux Error: 2: No such file or directory

Any suggestions, what could be wrong? I installed the Enterprise
Version, so it can't be an Enterprise setting ... it has to be a problem
in the init.ora, right?

System specs if required:
Pentium II, 800 (2x - multi processor)
1024MB RAM
4GB Swap
19GB diskspace free
Debian Linux (woody)
Kernel 2.4.20-686-smp

Any help would be appreciated.

 I do it the same way as with the 8.1.7.

I've had this problem on linux.  Best and fastest solution:  reboot the

I run into this every time I stop 9.2 on Linux.

No need to reboot.  Just use ipcrm to remove the
offending SHM segments.

If you don't know which ones, use ORADEBUG to
find the segments you shouldn't remove from other
running databases.

Or just shutdown all instances and remove any
SHM owned by Oracle.

Probably a bug, but I haven't checked into it yet.

Re: can't create database

Ray,

ipcs *will* tell you the ID's of all Oracle SHM segments.

What it won't tell you is which ones *not* to delete.

You need oradebug for that.

 No need to reboot.  Just use ipcrm to remove the

 If you don't know which ones, use ORADEBUG to

Re: can't create database

2003-03-11 Thread Alan Davey
I had the same error message on NT with Oracle 9.2 recently.

The first problem was that the init_sid.ora file was created a directory different 
from where the db create scripts were looking for it.  The second problem was that one 
of the init parameters was for Enterprise Edition and I was installing Standard 
Edition.

Both problems resulted in the message of 'not connected to oracle'.

Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever had a version of the DB Creation wizard 
work without getting some error.
