We had this Oracle 8.0.5 database, running under Windows 2000 Server,
whcih collapsed due to a system failure. Since the last backup was
rather old I had to copy all working database files (SYSEIK.ORA,
USEREIK.ORA, TEMPEIK.ORA, RBSEIK.ORA, LOG1EIK.ORA, LOG2EIK.ORA,
CTL1EIK.ORA, CTL2EIK.ORA with SID = EIK) from the direvtory
ORACLE_HOME\rdbms80. Which of the above files contains the actual
data. Is it possible to recover the database only using the files
above? I tried setting up a new Oracle installation. The services
oracleserviceEIK & oraclestartEIK have started witthout problem, but
when I use the servicemanager to startup the database I get the error
TNS:could not resolve service name. Since this is rather urgent any
help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
George
