Re: All OracleServiceSIDs not starting

connect via server manager line mode (svrmgrl) as internal and attempt to startup the instance manually.

C:\> net start
(check to see that the service is started)

set the environment variable %ORACLE_SID%

C:\> set ORACLE_SID=<yoursid>

If you have multiple oracle homes, set your working directory to the correct one.
Otherwise, the first oracle_home in your path that has the svrmgrl.exe will be used.

C:\> svrmgrl

SQL> connect internal

it should read something like

"connected to an idle instance."

SQL> startup

and see what happens.

post copied text of logs.
How long has it been since the server was last restarted (i.e. when SP4 was applied)?
Why is this still on 8.1.6 - perhaps the binaries just got too old and died?
That release was obsolete like 5 years ago.
