Hello:

Yesterday I asked how to set up Oracle 8.1.7 on a Win2K machine so that the RDBMS automatically starts up.

I was told that by simpoly having the corresponding services set to "Automatic" that would suffice.

Well it turns out that, although the services are set to automatic, and after a reboot the services are labeled Started, the database is not mounted and opened: "Shared Memory Area Not Available".

I then go to the Instance Manager and start it up and everything then works fine.

Could it be that it is not using the correct init.ora file on start-up? If so, in which path does it look for the file for when it starts up the service? Can this be seen in the entry or anywhere else?

Thanks,
