    Oracle 'SYSTEM01.DBF' error

    Hi,

    I'm facing some problems with oracle 9i on my test machine. It seems the database has badly crashed. While using 'startup mount;' command I was receiving some error for REDO03.LOG file, which I solved somehow by using 'alter database rename file 'old path' to 'new path';' command.

    On using 'alter database open resetlogs;' command, I receive error message as below:

    SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
    alter database open resetlogs
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01194: file 1 needs more recovery to be consistent
    ORA-01110: data file 1: 'C:\ORACLE\ECC\SYSTEM01.DBF'

    Please advice how to resolve this error. Secondly, please post your replies with commands as I'm not too used to Oracle.

    why did you do the alter database rename

    if you dont have the log you will need to do a recovery

    Cool Recover...

    Maybe this will work:
    Code:
    ALTER DATABASE RECOVER DATAFILE '{the file you renamed}';
    If not, you may need to do recovery as davey23uk posted.

    I actually renamed that file back to original one.... Do you think I still need to use this recovery command?

    Even after this change I receive the same error message:

    SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
    alter database open resetlogs
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01113: file 1 needs media recovery
    ORA-01110: data file 1: 'C:\ORACLE\ECC\SYSTEM01.DBF'

    what do you mean renamed the file back to the original one

    what exactly did you do and why

    if you overwrote the online log - you are screwed

    why did you do the rename - for what purpose?

    why did it have the wrong name
