thanks to all who are helping with this problem.
control file(s) are missing. since this is a new install it might
have been that the control files were never created.
the oracle docs (support) tell to use "CREATE CONTROLFILE"
statement to create control file(s). but i need to know the
complete procedure. would you know the complete statement and
procedure to generate control files. do we have to change the
db/sid name ?
