Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: ora 24314 service handle not initialized
Well that is one way of migrating a database that I had never considered :). If you have already created a 8.1.7 instance with empty datafiles etc I think the easiest way is to export the full database from 8.1.6 and import it into the 8.1.7 instance.
Otherwise start it up with Oracle_Home set to 8.1.7 and run the upgrade scripts. Check the documentation out but they will be something like U000816.sql etc. Really you need to follow the documentation and take 1 approach to upgrading rather than a mix & match approach

Subject: ora 24314 service handle not initialized
Hello all,
I was working with an 8.1.6 DB and I needed to migrate to 8.1.7. As I
was newbie (And i keep on being that) I copied all the files related
with the DB (control, dbf..). I created a new DB with the same name and
path as the 81.6 one and replaced its files with the one I saved
previously.
Maybe it´s a madness solution...
My problem now is that I get the 'ora 24314 service handle not
initialized' error. I have read something in metalink, note 122183.1,
just the point in which it sais 'If the ORACLE_HOME points to the 8.1.7
software yet the database
was created with 8.1.6 or 8.1.5, then this error can occur' is my
problem.
I don´t know how could I resolve it. Could somebody orient me? Or if you
think it´s impossible to recover, please, tell me?
A lot of thanks
