Hi,
When i connect to sql*plus as sysdba for a particular database and try to do a shutdown immediate or startup, I get the following errors....

oracle@servername ~> sqlplus " / as sysdba"

SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on Sun Feb 5 12:45:36 2006

Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.

Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate
ORA-24324: service handle not initialized
ORA-24323: value not allowed
ORA-01089: immediate shutdown in progress - no operations are permitted
SQL> startup
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

This was working just fine just 2 days ago, and then all of a sudden i get these errors....What happened to cause them and how do I solve them? I saw the below explanation on internet, but they dont help me in understanding and solving the problems. Futhermore, why do i get an insufficient privileges error when i am connected as sysdba??

ORA-24323 value not allowed
Cause: A null or invalid value was passed in for a mandatory parameter.
Action: Verify that all mandatory parameters are properly initialized.

ORA-24324 service handle not initialized
Cause: An attempt was made to use an improper service context handle.
Action: Verify that the service context handle has all the parameters initialized prior to this call.

I hope someone can help me solve these problems. It is rather urgent.
Thanks a lot!
