We are running Oracle 8i on NT Server SP6 and one of our databases will not start this morning.
If you stop the services, the database services stops and restarts without an error, but the OracleStart<DBName> service reports an error: " Error 2186 The service is not responding to the control function." The service then shows up as started - but when users try and login to the database, it says the database was not found.
We have restarted the TNSListener service, the database and the OracleStart service numerous times - same error. We've restarted the server twice...same problem.
Event Viewer reports this error: "The Open Procedure for service "Oracle8" in DLL "oraperf.dll" failed. Performance data for this service will not be available. Status code returned is DWORD 0."
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
