Have you tried to start up using the pfile option?

SQL>startup pfile=PATH/init.ora

Are there any errors in the alert log, or any errors accompanying this error? There should be more information in the error stack..

Hi,

I created a database using DB CreateAssistant. Then I went to the pfile where the init.ora is placed. I renamed the filename and after sometime renamed it back to original. But it seems like it is not taking/reading that file.

I get ORA-01078 failure in processing system parameters

Kindly help.

Sanjay
