Hi Everyone,
I am running oracle on aix 4.3.3. I just completed an upgrade from 8.0.6 to 8.1.7 on a production database. I am a little confused, I keep getting the following message everytime I bounce the database. Does anyone know, will I always get this message? Is this ok or is this a problem?

Updating 8.1.7.0.0 NLS parameters in sys.props$
-- adding 8.1.7.0.0 NLS parameters.
Completed: alter database open
Thanks,
Kathy

Be thankful its not a critical ora error. On the face of it, it seems harmless, but I am not an experienced DBA.

The issue is a missing row in sys.props$ for NLS_DUAL_CURRENCY. If the database can be opened READ/WRITE, there is a workaround. It involves inserting the row into sys.props$ as follows:
1) Open the database for read/write
2) set transaction use rollback segment system;
3) insert into sys.props$ values ('NLS_DUAL_CURRENCY', '$',
'Dual currency symbol');
4) commit;
5) shutdown and restart the database in read only mode.
You should ensure you have a complete backup before performing this operation.
Good luck,
Sam
Thanx
