Re: dbstart - does not work

Take a look in Metalink, there's a log for that, and a fixe too. And that's the fixe as it looks

Edit the script and change the 'awk' lines

      from:
        VERSION=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/svrmgrl command=exit | awk '
          /PL\/SQL (Release|Version)/ {substr($3,1,3) ;
          print substr($3,1,3)}'`
      to:
        VERSION=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/svrmgrl command=exit | awk '
          /PL\/SQL (Release|Version)/ { print substr($3,1,3); exit }
          /Oracle7 Server (Release|Version)/ { print substr($4,1,3); exit }
          /Oracle8i Enterprise Edition (Release|Version)/ { print
substr($5,1,3); exit }
          /Oracle8i (Release|Version)/ { print substr($3,1,3); exit }'`

      Additionally for platforms which set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the dbstart
      script you should change the following:
      From:
            LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${ORACLE_HOME}/lib ;
            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
      To:
            LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${ORACLE_HOME}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} ;
            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

I did that, and it's working perf.
