Hi

Yes, that's part of the problem/original bug where oradim could not recreate the service after deleting it. You need to reboot. Here is the bug 1266248

"
Problem is with the call that is made to ORADIM.EXE by the service when the registry entry ora_sid_autostart=true. Oradim hangs, the service is shown to be in status 'starting' and the service oracleservicesid cannot be stopped.

ORACLE.EXE must be killed from Task Manager, and ORADIM.EXE cannot be killed. Setting reg entry ora_sid_autostart=false, and rebooting, resolves the issue, leaving us, of course, without an aotostart option.

 It is worth noting that dispite the status of the service, the database can be started and stopped manually from Server Manager. The error is only on the service attempting to autostart the database. We removed and rebuilt oracleservicesid using Oradim, and this fixed the problem temporarily.

We were able to use the service to start/stop, until a reboot, after which the same problem occurs.

I was just off the phone with Oracle, and was advised to start another tar...

Thanks
