Firstly I have query for the process by the following query.
1 select sid, spid as thread, osuser, s.program
2 from sys.v_$process p, sys.v_$session s
3* where p.addr = s.paddr
SQL>/
1 193 SYSTEM ORACLE.EXE
2 263 SYSTEM ORACLE.EXE
3 267 SYSTEM ORACLE.EXE
4 216 SYSTEM ORACLE.EXE
5 254 SYSTEM ORACLE.EXE
6 259 SYSTEM ORACLE.EXE
7 233
8 250
9 257
10 290
13 113 DOMAIN\Administrator SQLPLUSW.EXE

Then I have tried to kill the process 13 and thread 113 by the following commands -

Microsoft(R) Windows NT(TM)
(C) Copyright 1985-1996 Microsoft Corp.

C:\>orakill 13 113

Could not attach to Oracle instance 13: err = 2

C:\>

and got the above error "Could not attach to Oracle instance 13: err = 2 "

Please advise.

Thanks & Regards
