SQL> CREATE SPFILE FROM PFILE;
what results from above?

>It would be helpful if you followed Posting Guidelines - http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/

are you logged onto OS as same OS user that owns the Oracle software?

Are both ORACLE_HOME & ORACLE_SID defined in registry?

open Command Window & do as below

dir f:\oracle\product\10.1.0\db_1\databse\

COPY command & results then PASTE all back here

Is "databse" above is error?

should it be "database"?

Is it ora-00109 or LRM-00109?

1078, 00000, "failure in processing system parameters"
// *Cause:  Failure during processing of INIT.ORA parameters during
//	    system startup.
// *Action:  Further diagnostic information should be in the error stack.
bcm@bcm-laptop:~$ oerr LRM 123
123, 0, "invalid character %u found in the input file"
// *Cause: A character that is invalid was found in the input file.
// *Action: Specify an input file that contains only valid characters.

the "oerr" utility exists for *NIX, but not for Windows

bcm@bcm-laptop:~$ oerr
Usage: oerr facility error

Facility is identified by the prefix string in the error message.
For example, if you get ORA-7300, "ora" is the facility and "7300"
is the error.  So you should type "oerr ora 7300".

If you get LCD-111, type "oerr lcd 111", and so on.

ORA are standard Oracle errors
I am not sure what/which facility throw LRM errors; but it appears to be rather low level.

Do NOT post the same question in different hijacked topics, now we have the same question from you and different answers in several topics and no one can profit of a wrap-up.
Please read OraFAQ Forum Guide.
