I see the error messages for one of our application services:

ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
No such file or directory

The database seems to be mounted correctly and the listener is running. I have followed the various advice on bouncing the database but nothing seems to help. Does anybody who may have experienced the same problem have any thoughts or suggestions?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
aditya

Yes many have experienced this.
Had you any error during startup?
Did you query v$database and v$instance to know in what state is your database/instance?
Did you search in alert.log to know if there is any error?

Regards
Michel

Hi
I faced the same problem in Oracle9i.

Try this...

Set the ORACLE_SID
startup the database using the spfile or pfile.
select name,open_mode from v$database;
