Hi,

Last night our oracle server was improperly shutdown due to which now the Database instance is down as well as Agent connection to instance. This is why we are unable to connect to database 'orcl'. We tried using enterprise manager but it requires OS password and on providing it with OS passward it says Invalid user name and password. We have also tried using sqlplus 'STARTUP' (conn sys/pass @orcl as sysdba) using login 'sys' as sysdba but it says:

ERROR:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect
descriptor

Any resolution other than reinstallation of OS or Oracle?

Thanks.
Regards,
Waqas

Connect on the database server as a OS dba user, set ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID environment variable and execute SQL*Plus connecting as "/ as sysdba", then you will be able to execute STARTUP.

I tried that but when I tries to login as sysdba using
conn sys/password @orcl using sysdba
it states:
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error

( alert_[SID].log in the background dump directory )

Hi which directory is it. Can you be specific about the path of this dump dir where these alert logs are located.

Not really, since you have to specify it during the database creation, so there is no way anyone other than the person who installed the database really knows.

The directory itself is called "bdump" in maybe 80% of cases, and is either somewhere where the datafiles are or somewhere where the Oracle installation is.

Check you parameter value for background_dump_dest like below mentioned...And read Oracle Documents For the concepts.

I.E

SQL> sho parameter background_dump_dest

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
background_dump_dest                 string      C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ADMIN
                                                 \SATYA\BDUMP

rwaqas,

My post is a reply for you to find the alert log location...And as you found it and posted some content of the file ..
And it is showing some ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [4194], [6], [11], [], [], [], [], []

Which is an internal error for which you need to contact your Oracle support.

Sriram
