Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Service startup on Windows 2000 fails
Lisa,
I'd suggest checking the application log in Windows event viewer - usually contains something even if the on-screen response suggests no error returned. You should see things like
Audit trail: ACTION : 'SHUTDOWN' DATABASE USER: '/' PRIVILEGE : SYSDBA CLIENT USER: SYSTEM CLIENT TERMINAL: STUPIDMACHINE STATUS: 0 . and a bunch of PGA instantiation events for SMON, PMON, etc (e.g. Initializing PGA for process RECO in instance stupid1)
Given your services are failing, you should see a bunch of errors (whether they're useful is another story ...)
If that fails to shed any light, also try the listener log / alert log, and see if there are any tell tale errors there.
Ciao
Fuzzy

(and yes, my windoze box is called STUPIDMACHINE ... that way it knows when I'm talking to it :-) )

Good morning everyone,
Windows 2000 sp3, ver 8.1.7.2
I have NO IDEA what is going on here. I can't start any of the services
associated with Oracle, not with my logon, not with local admin, not with a
local account with appropriate permissions, nothing.
Here's what I've tried:
Followed note on metalink stating to add local security policies: Act as
part of operating system, increase quotas, log on as batch job, replace a
process level token, and rebooted.
All logons are part of the administrator and the ORA_DBA group.
I am able to log in as each of these local accounts, the accounts are not locked or messed up. I have double-checked the password in the properties tab.
Local system account also fails with same error.
Here's the error I receive when I try to manually start the listener
service:
"Could not start the OracleOraHome81TNSListener service on Local Computer.
The service did not return an error This could be an internal Windows error
or an internal service error. If the problem persists, contact your system
administrator."
I am clueless and so is the sysadmin. I am just thankful this is a test
system instead of production... I know next to nothing about windows.
Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks
