Greetings,
Is it possible log_archive_start is set to true? I believe that will start the archiver process even if the database is in noarchivelog mode.

Subject: Archiver error without archive log mode
Dear list,
A question - maybe I am just silly, but I can't explain how that comes: One of my 10gR2 Databases is in NORACHIVELOG mode. (v$database log_mode is NOARCHIVELOG).
If I force a logswitch with "alter system switch logfile;" I'll get this alert log entry (without any ORA- error): Thread 1 cannot allocate new log, sequence <something>"
This alone would be quite "funny", but tonight there have been jobs refusing to start with "ORA-0257 archiver error. Connect internal only, until freed.”
Why is there an archiver process without archive log mode, and why is it blocking my transactions?
Something you should know: The ASM disk group used by the database is 95% full, but there have been no errors with extending tablespaces or something like that.
Any advice is greatly appreciated - thanks in advance! Martin Klier
