    Hi all. I tried to create a database using the scripts generated by dbassist. When I run the create script, I got ORA-03113:end-of-file on communication channel. I checked the listener file, all the setting is correct. I then manually run create database command on svrmgrl, got the same message. anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks.

    no lk<SID> file

    Hi,

    I found out there is no lk file under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs. Is it the reason cause the ora-03113 error? Does it mean I need to re-install the software. BTW, it's a solaris box and the oracle version is 8.1.7.

    Thanks.

    Some recommednation:

    1. Check to see if you have privilege to write in the directory where you want to create your datafiles.

    2. If 1 is OK, I would like to suggest re-install Oracle and use dbassist to create a database. See if that helps!

    it is highly possible that this comes from kernel parameters not being weel adjusted. try these values :

    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=200
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=50
    set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100
    set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=700
    set semsys:seminfo_semmns=1200
    set semsys:seminfo_semopm=100
    set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767

    Check on Metalink for this issue.
    1. there are known reasons for this error.
    2. this error crops up during db creation in 8.1.6 (that I know of), dunno if this was fixed.

    ora-03113

    Thanks for your reply.

    I checked everything you mentioned, still get the error. Do you think I shoud reboot the server? There is another weird thing, when I shutdown the database abort and
    svrmgr> connect internal
    svrmgr>connected
    Since the database is not started, it should show 'connect to idle database' instead of 'connect'. Anyone have ideas?

    Thanks

    Unhappy

    I am also getting this same error ( Ora-03113) but I am using Winnt Workstation 4.0 with SP6a. I only run Oracle on this workstation for stand-alone testing..

    I am installing Oracle 8.1.6. and have installed 3 times with the same error. The error happens DURING install.

    I can tnsping the database...but when I try to access via SQL*NET it fails.
    I have tried to recreate the tnsnames.ora file (several times) using Net8 with no luck.
    changed my ip from DHCP to static


    any suggestions

    Thanks in advance
