Hello,

I have a problem with an Oracle application. Since i demoted domain controller on a server (Windows Server 2003), the application doesn't start. The error message appears : ORA-12505 tns listener does not currently know of sid given in connect descriptor.

I don't know Oracle but i searched without finding any solutions.

On the client computer, i found a tnsnames.ora file :

# C:\ORAWIN95\NET80\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA Configuration File:C:\orawin95\net80\admin\tnsnames.ora

(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL))
)


On the server computer i found a tnsnames.ora file too :

# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: D:\oracle\HomeVega10G\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

GIMA =
(DESCRIPTION =

)

(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = GIMA)
)
)

I found a listener.ora file on the server :

# listener.ora Network Configuration File
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(ORACLE_HOME = d:\oracle\HomeVega10g)
(SID_NAME = VEGA)
)
)


LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(HOST = 192.168.10.5)
(PORT = 1521)
)
)


The services on the server :

OracleJobSchedulerGIMA (started) Automatic
OracleJobSchedulerVEGA (started) Automatic

OracleOracleHomeVega10gTNSListenerGIMA (not started) Manual : i cannot start this service (it starts and stop immediately).
OracleServiceGIMA (started) Automatic


For information :

Application name : GIMA
Server ip address : 192.168.10.5
Ping server since client computer : OK (ip address and name).
No firewall on the client computer and server.
No antivirus.
Telnet 1521 on the server OK.
There is another application named VEGA on the server and there is no problem with this application.

Can you help me please ?

Somebody is trying to connect to SID=gima, but the listener knows nothing about the GIMA database as shown by lsnrctl service output.

post tail end of alert_GIMA.log file.
Is the GIMA database up & online now?

you need to be logged onto the OS as the same OS user who owns the Oracle software installation files; usually "oracle".

As this is Windows, you have to st put your OS account in the ORA_DBA OS group (on the database server).

I tried to be logged with domain administrator > no results.
With local administrator > no results.
With a user who is already logged on this server > no results.

There is no oracle user.

The server is already in ORA_DBA group (active directory local domain security group).

I think your problem is here,
Quote:
i demoted domain controller on a server

What account is the OracleServiceGIMA service running under? What groups is your Windows account a member of? I don't know what "demoted" means (I'm not very good with Winows) but I would guess that you need to re-create the service to run under a local system account.

It means that i uninstalled the domain controller role on the server.

The OracleServiceGIMA is running under Local system user.

What does this mean?
I meant the account you are connected with on the Windows database server must be in the local Windows group ORA_DBA.

In addition, the %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\sqlnet.ora file must contain the line:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)

I have a group named ORA_DBA in Active Directory. In this group, i have the domain administrator user and the Oracle server object.

I also tried to create a local group with the name ORA_DBA on the Oracle Server. In this group, i put the domain administrator account, the local administrator account, the local system account. But the sqlplus as sysdba connexion still failed.

I don't find any sqlnet.ora files in d:\oracle\homevega10g\network\admin folder.

Done.

I could execute the command line sqlplus / as sysdba.
I then executed the command line STARTUP.

The application start now.

I will ask the user to try if all is good in the application tomorrow.

But it seems to be good Smile Smile Smile .

Thank you very very very much Smile !

If you want the database starts with the server execute the command:
Code: [Select all] [Show/ hide]
%ORACLE_HOME%\BIN\ORADIM -EDIT -SID %ORACLE_SID% -startmode auto -srvcstart system

Several things very strange about this, starting with the fact that you seem to have two alert logs for the same database, in different directories, and overlapping times. And within the first, we see further strangeness:

Looks like a shutdown was issued on Feb 18 at 12:00:39. The line just before would have shown if it were 'norma', 'immediate' or 'abort'. In any event, we don't see any actual shutdown progress messages until 17:34, and those get interrupted with another 'shutdown immediate'

What was the actual name of this file? And exactly what directory is it in? It should be 'd:\oracle\homevega10g\rdbms\%ORACLE_SID%\%ORACLE_SID%\trace\alert%ORACLE_SID%.log'. There is nothing in the content you present that identifies what database it is from, and without the full path/file name of the alert, we can't trust it.
