Re: oracle startup problem - please help

Hi

I found the following off of Metalink regarding your problem:

"

The ORA-27146 means that the system is running out of semaphores.  You can either decrease the "processes" parameter in the init.ora file, or increase the kernel setting in
 /etc/system file. The semamphore parameter is called "semmns".
"

Hope this information helps!

Regards
Natasha
