I created a new database using dbca and I am trying to log in to the database. However when I enter connect /as sysdba
it reads that I am connect to an idle instance. When I type startup I get the following errors:
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
LRM-00109: could not open parameter '/u01/oracle/product/app/9.2.0.1/dbs/initgabriele.ora
I checked the directory that it is searching for the initsid.ora file in and it does not exist. There is a spfileGabriele.ora file. I don't understand why the initgabriele.ora was not created when I used dbca. How do I fix this? Please help?

oracle by default creates spfile,and it should use spfile while starting the database. however you can create pfile from spfile using the command create pfile from spfile; provided that you have correct env variable for ORACLE_SID
Thanks

You really should not be putting sid and server info on the internet, just my opinion.
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/oracle/product/app/9.2.0.1
Should be
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/app/9.2.0.1
export ORACLE_HOME
Also,
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/etc:/usr/etc:/usr/local/X11/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/local/etc:/usr/sbin:/usr/ local/bin/perl:plbin140.sol2:/opt/Acrobat4/bin:$ORACLE_HOME:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export PATH
PWD=/export/home/oracle - I would just take this out.
