Oracle 8.1.7 tracefile: errno=13

Hi

I'm getting the following trace file on my 8.1.7 databases upon each startup:

Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.0.0 - 64bit Production
JServer Release 8.1.7.0.0 - 64bit Production
ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/product/8.1.7
System name: HP-UX
Node name: bico_utv
Release: B.11.00
Version: U
Machine: 9000/800
Instance name: TEST8i
Redo thread mounted by this instance: 0
Oracle process number: 0
8787

User does not have permission : errno=13

Anyone been there?

Andreas

Hi there.
Check the rights for your Oracle directories.
One of them ( tracefile directory ) may either not be owned by oracle or does not have the right mode or does not even exist.

Hi Andreas,

errno 13 is PERMISSION DENIED.
Have a look on /usr/conf/h/errno.h.

You may have problems due to :
1. Not having the right user name.
2. Not having the right group name.
3. Permission on directories and files.

Hello,
Make the user as a member of the dba group.
Retry the operation.

Thanks

Hi again!

My directories is owned by the oracle sw owner (login:oracle8i) and group oinstall.
All directories have 755 rights.
Tracefile directories seem OK too.

User oracle8i is member of dba group and has oinstall as primary group.

Re: Oracle 8.1.7 tracefile: errno=13

it is a question of authorization problems, how most have found. You must examine:
whether the Oracle-user that correct group is assigned.
whether the oper-roup is installed or defined.
whether the start pocedure are assigned to the correct user.
whether if S-bit is be set
whether other mistakes in the oracle-tracefile like ora-00942 are taken down.

Hi
Oracle Support is now looking into this, as I can't find anything wrong with permissions, ownership etc.

I'll let you know.

Hello,
Just try the permissions to the directories as
775.
have a go!
These permissions will also give full rights to the oracle group.

Re: Oracle 8.1.7 tracefile: errno=13

Hello,
Check the permissions of the archive log directories if your database is running in archivelog mode.
Also check the trace directory permissions.
Open your init.ora file and find the directory path you have mentioned there and respectively check the permissions for them.
Thanks
