    Error of ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file

    Hi,

    I was unable to startup my database. The following error message was shown instead:

    SQL> startup
    ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file
    SVR4 Error: 2: No such file or directory
    Additional information: 9925


    I've checked my audit_file_dest parameter and have made sure that it is pointing to a valid directory: /opt/app/admin/HYDB/adump.

    I've also ensure that my $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle has authorization of this directory by setting it to 6755.

    When i enter the command 'ls -l $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle', I got this
    -rwsr-sr-x 1 oracle oinstall 118441880 Jul 19 16:24 /opt/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/bin/oracle

    I've also checked that i have the permission to write to the directory by running 'ls -al /opt/app/admin/HYDB/adump'. It gives the following results:

    total 40
    drwxr-x--- 2 oracle oinstall 17920 Aug 10 17:30 .
    drwxr-x--- 8 oracle oinstall 512 Aug 10 17:29 ..
    -rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 589 Aug 10 17:30 ora_4970.aud

    My listener was also started up successfully as shown below:

    Connecting to (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=)(PORT=1521))
    STATUS of the LISTENER

    (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=blade)(PORT=1521)))
    The listener supports no services
    The command completed successfully

    However, i am still unable to start up my database with the same error message coming up. Can someone please advice?

    Thanks in advance!!!
