1/ Check alert.log file to know if there was any problem.
2/ Connect as sysdba and shut down and restart the database.

"alert.log" is in the directory pointed by "background_dump_dest" parameter.
If you don't know there use "find / -name 'alert*log' -ls".

If you are OS connected with an account that is in the dba group you don't need any password to connect as sysdba, just use "/ as sysdba"

Michel
