I have personal oracle installed on my home PC.

I was trying to shutdown my database using shutdown normal option but it gave me an error ORA-01093
ie ALTER DATABASE CLOSE only permitted with no sessions connected
SQL> shutdown normal
ORA-01093: ALTER DATABASE CLOSE only permitted with no sessions connected

i viewed the seesions from the v$session view and got the following output.
SQL> select sid,serial#,program,username from v$session;

SID SERIAL# PROGRAM
----- --------- -------------------------------------
1 1 ORACLE.EXE
2 1 ORACLE.EXE
3 1 ORACLE.EXE
4 1 ORACLE.EXE
5 1 ORACLE.EXE
6 1 ORACLE.EXE
7 141
8 141
11 9 SQLPLUSW.EXE

9 rows selected.

i can't kill the sessions because they are not user sessions.
Questions -
1) I have opened just an sqlplus session. What are these other sessions?
2) can i get rid of them or are they some system sessions?
3) how can i shutdown my database?

any help will be appreciated.

Hi

1
select type, sid, serial# from v$session

Will show if session is background or user session.

2
Just try (if background process then oracle will not allow to kill them)

3

use shutdown immediate
+ disconnects all sessions
+ rollsback outstanding transactions
+ requires no recovery

Good Luck

ORA-01093: ALTER DATABASE CLOSE only permitted with no sessions connected

sqlplus /nolog

SQL> connect sys as sysdba or connect / as sysdba
