Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> ORA-12203 after Blue Screen of Death
I am running Personal Oracle8 with Designer/2000 on Windows NT
Workstation 4.0 (dual-boot with Win 95), and yesterday in the middle of
building an ERD, I got a Windows NT Blue Screen of Death, something to
the effect of "Beginning dump of physical memory." Needless to say, I
was very disappointed. I shut the machine off and rebooted NT, but when
I attempted to choose Start Database from the Personal Oracle8 Program
menu, I got an error that the database could not be opened, and then I
got ORA-12203 referring to TNSnames. The TNS assistant got the same
result, as did trying svrmgr30.exe.
Is my database destroyed, or is there a way to recover it? Is there anything else I can provide to shed light on the problem?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
