Re: Startup of 8i instance on Red Hat Linux 6.1

Congratulations on your success!

However...
when i run svrmgrl:

SVRMGR> CONNECT INTERNAL
Connected
SVRMGR> STARTUP
ORA-01081: cannot start already-running ORACLE - shut it down first SVRMGR> so i'm thinking happy thoughts...then i goto sqlplus:

sqlplus system/manager
ERROR:
ORA-01033: ORACLE initialization or shutdown in progress Enter user-name: system
Enter password: manager
ERROR:
ORA-01033: ORACLE initialization or shutdown in progress

Any insight would be welcome!
