SQL> startup pfile=E:\oraXXX\init\initXXX.ora; LRM-00109: could not open parameter file 'E:oraXXXinitinitXXX.ora' ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters SQL> I have a slight suspicion that the "bash" thing is the problem. It doesn't recognize anything like "E:\"? Should I get rid of my OS and switch to the quasi-OS that does recognize it?
