Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: log in database problem
PMON (Process Monitor) is a mandatory process. Something has caused it to
hang up its boots. There should be a trace file, + comments in the alert
log to identify why this happened. If PMON or any of the mandatory
processes die, you need to restart the database (as you've done) to fix the
problem. Stopping / restarting the listener will have no effect. Find out
why PMON died from the trace file, and address that problem.
Hope this helps.
