Most of the databases are running fine, but one insists on looking for the default file name, despite my having provided filename=<filename> parameter to orapwd. I can't find anything that is supposed to clue it in in this circumstance, and recreating the password file doesn't really so any good either. Every time I try to start the database using the pfile, it complains about wanting the orapwd file...
