I currently have an Oracle 8.1.5 database running on an NT Server. It's archive log files are stored on second server. The log_archive_dest parameter in init.ora is specified via drive mappings (M:\Oracle...). All is working successfully. The services are started under the System account on the NT Server. Unfortunately, the drive mapping only takes place after someone has logged in on the server. Thus, the services fail on startup. I attempted to use UNC naming conventions (\\ExShare\Oracle...) and changed the Oracle services to start using a Domain account that has rights to the share and admin rights on the local server.
If I attempt to start the service under the new user account using UNC mappings, I get an ORA-16032 "parameter log_archive_dest destination string cannot be translated." (I also get ORA-09291 and OSD-04018, but I'm certain they are caused by the first error) I also get an os(3) "system cannot find path specified."
Oddly enough, If I attempt to start the service under the new user account with the drive mapped, but not when logged into the server using the new user account, I get the same ORA-16302/ORA-09291/OSD- 04018, but I get an os(5) error "Access denied." When logged in using the oracle user account, I can access the share via Explorer. I even cut/pasted the share path directly from my init.ora file to make certain there wasn't a typo.
I'm certain I'm missing something very simple here. Any thoughts or pointers to other info appreciated.
