I was trying to put my database in archivelog mode. I shut down and now cant do startup mount command:


SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount
ORA-24324: service handle not initialized
ORA-01041: internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist

what do I do next?

Thank you for responding, but can you please provide specifics? I am not a dba and very new to this. We have no dba at all here, and need to create backups. So I was just trying to put this data base in archivelog mode to begin working with the back ups. ANY detailed step by step info is appreciated.

Exactly how did you do that? What commands did you issue? What version of the database are you using?

Thank you for the response. I will try addint the alter system log_archive_format . . . . statement you specified to my process. At this point my database is down and I can't bring it back up, short of shutting down the server. I did the shutdown immediate statment yesterday and the startup mount statement didn't work. So I can't get back onto the datebase to issue any statements at this point. DO I NEED to shutdown the server? I have other databases on it that I would like not to affect if possible.

Hello wbez,

Complementing DreamzZ suggestion and considering:
wbez wrote

When you run:
env |grep ORACLE_SID
Do you see the database sid that you want to startup?

If no... issue the following commands: (are you on the server or remote?)
ORACLE_SID=<your database sid>
export ORACLE_SID
sqlplus /nolog
conn sys as sysdba


Then post your status after this suggestion above.
Regards,


mson77

Your OS and oracle version (4 decimals).
Above I consider that your platform is linux/unix (non-windows).

Hello wbez,
I think your services not listening to TNS Listener. Check the status of the listener.
C:\> LSNRCTL STATUS
View the Instance ready UNKNOWN or BLOCKED.
If it is blocked then restart your service in the services window.
and check the status of the listener.
and try to start the instance again.
thats my opinion.
Try it...

Naveen
