    Thumbs up

    I shut my database down immediate
    I changed my database from Archive mode to noarchive mode by commenting
    these parameters:

    #log_archive_start = true
    #log_archive_dest = /11/oracle02/TESTDB/archive
    #log_archive_duplex_dest = /oracle_direct/TESTD/archive
    #log_archive_format = "arch%S.arc"

    After I start the database as sys.

    I later tried to connect using a username that has dba priveledges.
    For 30 minutes, I could not connect. But If I connect as sys, no problem.
    Has anyone ever experienced this problem? What's going on?

    did you switch your database to noarchivelog mode?

    Most likely, your logfiles need archiving.

    Hello,

    I think that you forgot to put the database in NOARCHIVE MODE using : alter database noarchivelog
    (!!! : the database must be mounted not opened).

    Hope this helps

    If you want to switch your database to archive mode , you can not just change your parameter file . (type archive log list , it will show you which mode your database is)

    Hello,

    I have forgotten to give you a way to see if the DB is in ARCHIVELOG or NOARVHIVELOG Mode. launch :

    select * from v$database;


    Hope this helps
