ORA-32004: obsolete and/or deprecated parameter(s) specified
Cause: 	One or more obsolete and/or deprecated parameters were 
        specified in the SPFILE or the PFILE on the server side.

Action: See alert log for a list of parameters that are obsolete
        or deprecated. Remove them from the SPFILE or the server 
        side PFILE.


Has anybody changed any database parameters since the last DB restart? Did you while troubleshooting?

Check the alert<SID>.log (in the Background Dump Destination directory), to find out which ones they are.

PS:

Here is the FAQ about pfiles/spfiles.

The quickest solution might be to restore the pfile or spfile (depending on which you use) from a known good backup.

Firstly, you should confirm whether you actually have a problem: does that ORA-32004 prevent the database from opening?
Secondly, you should remove deprecated parameters - if you query v$parameter like this,
SELECT name FROM v$parameter
WHERE isdeprecated = 'TRUE';
you will see all the deprecated parameters, so remove them from your initialization file.
Cheers, John.
