    Angry Starting up 9i Database on NT

    Hi, guys

    I have problem with starting up database on NT server (Windows 2000 Version 5.0 Service Pack 4, CPU type 586, Number of CPU 2).
    I am getting errors:

    SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production on Tue Oct 7 05:44:45 2003

    Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.

    Connected to an idle instance.

    SQL> startup;
    ORACLE instance started.

    Total System Global Area 135338868 bytes
    Fixed Size 453492 bytes
    Variable Size 109051904 bytes
    Database Buffers 25165824 bytes
    Redo Buffers 667648 bytes
    ORA-12709: error while loading create database character set

    SQL> alter database mount;
    alter database mount
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-12709: error while loading create database character set


    I checked metalink and found no solution for my problem.
    Environmet ORA_NLS33 is set to correct directory (ORA_NLS33=D:\Oracle\Ora92\ocommon\nls\ADMIN\DATA), NLS_LANG is set as well to NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P15

    Information I found in metalink :
    http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/...&p_id=160478.1
    http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/...T&p_id=21562.1

    Actually, Oracle on this machine does not seems to work at all, I have tried install 8.1.7 and I could not compile any trigger, I was getting error: "PLS-00553 character set name is not recognized"

    In both cases NLS_ORA33 and NLS_LANG were set.

    Please let me know, if you have some ideas about above.
    Best wishes!

    I have 3 ORACLE_HOME on this server. I set NLS_ORA33 in Windows env settings, if I changed it to to wrong path I get another error:

    SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production on Tue Oct 7 07:04:32 2003
    Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
    ERROR:
    ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter value specified
    Enter user-name:


    I think it prooves that NLS_ORA33 I set is correct.
    Best wishes!

    No, sorry, you mean Windows NT 4, I meant Windows NT 2000 (last available service pack is 4)
