Re: NT Database Instance Recreation

Thanks for the advice. I did this, but recv an ORA-1034 upon attempting connection. The control panel services shows the service to exist and be running, I believe I specified the correct pfile etc. I have used the Net8 Assistant to define the database alias. The computer has been restarted.

What should I try next?
