Hi,

In oracle 8i I used to set the following parameters before opening my database in archive mode
log_archive_start =
log_archive_dest_1 =
log_archive_format =

Presently I created a database in oracle 9i and the init file that got created automatically, these parameters are missing there.

Then I tried to configure those thru SPFILE , but while trying the same I am getting the following error. How to resove this prob. I would like to set those parameters in my 9i database.

SQL> alter system set log_archive_start=TRUE
scope=BOTH;

alter system set log_archive_start=TRUE
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02095: specified initialization parameter cannot be modified

Regards
