Your database are in shutdowm progress. Stop them first, and start. If you in Oracle 8i, then connect by internal and execute shutdown abort. If you are in 9i and upper,
>sqlplus /nolog
SQL>connect as sysdba
.....
SQL>shutdown abort

No, it can be incorrect. Make the next from command line:
Z:\>set ORACLE_SID=MYDB
-- to verify that your SID is set correct
Z:\>echo %ORACLE_SID%
MYDB

Z:>sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect as sysdba
............
SQL> shutdown abort

If you also give the error, restart the instance service from Service Manager(As i understand, you have Win installed).

Paste here last !200 rows from init.ora . As I see, will be necessary to restart your host.

From you alert.log, I can see that when you stops your server, database are not shutting down. This is not good. Also You have problem with host mydb.hyd.customs.gov.pk - possible he doesn't response to your database calls. Because of this problem, ARCH process cannot stop corectly and database cannot stop. Under WinXP exist utility which are called some like Oracle NT Instance configuration. From this utility You can stop explicitly your database(you must to see at the end of alert.log ARC0: 'Archival stopped'). Aftre stopping, resolve problem with

ARC0: Error 12154 connecting to standby host 'mydb.hyd.customs.gov.pk'

or comment corresponding row in the alert.log.

Can you connect as a non-SYSDBA user without getting the error?

If so, you may want to recreate your password file with the ORAPWD utility.

1)for excluding appearence of error, resolve situation with conexion between your host and mydb.hyd.customs.gov.pk, or comment the row log_archive_dest_2="service=mydb.hyd.customs.gov.pk" from your init.ora.
2)Is necessary to restart your database. It is possible to try to connect to database as I already write(I think that you are already tried, but will be good to try yet once an to paste log of execution here), or to go to service manager, and stop service, that responds for work of your instance mydb(also possible to try to use Oracle NT Instance configuration).

P.S. stopping of host without shutdown of database are from 5 june.

Not really sure what that has to do with the price of rice. I was simply asking whether he could make a NON-SYSDBA connection. NO mention of startup or shutdown anywhere in my response !!

This is windoze after all. Have you tried rebooting your system? Prior to rebooting your system, modify the Windows database service to start manually. From the command prompt:

oradim -edit -sid mydb -startmode m

Once the system is rebooted, go to a command prompt and ensure the Oracle Home and Oracle SID are set correctly and start the Windows service associated with the database:

oradim -startup -sid mydb -starttype srvc

Then try to make a connection to the database.

sqlplus /nolog

SQL> conn / as sysdba

IF this works, you can try to start the database.

If you still can't connect after rebooting your system, you may want to try and delete the Oracle service (using ORADIM) associated with this database, reboot your system and recreate the Windows Oracle service with ORADIM.

If you still encounter the problem, since this is a test system, you may want to uninstall oracle and reinstall.

Hi,
I also had the same problem with my Windows 2000 server when installed Oracle 9i server.

During the o/s installation process, I mentioned the system as the 'domain' wrongly.
So, I encountered the problem.

I reinstalled the o/s and during the o/s installation, it asked whether the system is 'domain' or 'workgroup', I select 'workgroup' from the option.

Then, I went for Oracle installation, right frm the begining and it is fine now.

Try this,

all the best.

Are you logging into the box as a domain user or local user? Is the oracle process configured to run as a local user or domain user? Seems to be a cross between one of the above.

Hi,

Frm Control panel choose the system.
Ans look into it's properties.

In the 'Network identification' tab,

you'll have

full computer name : XXXXXX
Workgroup : Workgroup.

During the O/s installation, if you have selected it as DOMAIN
here you'll see as

workgroup : Domain

In this case, if it is domain, then you'll have the 'hostdef extension doesn't exist' problem.

Because, in your 'tnasnames.ora', you will have the server or hostname, same as the full computer name.

ie, the computer name "xxxxx" will be found in the tnsnames.ora file as hostname.

Now, if your computer was installed as workgroup, then it will recognise your system and it won't give any problem.

But, if it was installed as Domain, then you'll have the 'hostdef' problem.

So, if you can, install the o/s again and during the o/s installation choose 'workgroup' and please don't choose 'domain'.

When I encounterd the same problem 'hostdef extension dosen't exist' in my windows server, I reinstalled the o/s and Oracle as mentioned above and the Oracle db is fine now.

If possible, do resinstall the o/s and oracle.

all the best.

Raja

(ADDRESS

(PROTOCOL=tcp)
(HOST=zaheer.customs.gov.pk)
(PORT=<portnumber (1521 is a standard port used)>)

Hi,
As we discussed,
if your computer name and the hostname are same, then there won't be problem.

here your computer name is zaheer.
but in your tnsnames.ora, it is with the domain name(zaheer.customs.gov.pk).
so, changes are there for conflict and error msg will appear.

You have classic problem with firewall.

Note 208433.1 seems to indicate that Intel-Linux does not support OOB.

The "disable_oob" is set in the sqlnet.ora on the client. It does not need a database instance restart. The client specifies to the server when it connects whether it will be using "in-band" or "out-of-band".
