Hallo Tarry!

Are you sure that I am able to "startup force" the data base loged in as a normal user (DBA)?

I had to solve the problem yesterday, so I drove in a very hard line (I got a good backup <:
- shut down the service on system level
- changed the INTERNAL´s password by oradim
- restart the service on system level
- connected as INTERNAL - Jep, now it was possible! <:
- startup the database

Do not follow this procedure if you do not have to!
