Oracle passwd

[Mariel Gonzales Faylona]

When I finished my BCV, I tried to start my database. But when i tried using the db by svrmgrl and by using connect internal it prompted a password. I usually don't see the message below when I use connect internal.

ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file
HP-UX Error: 2: No such file or directory
Additional information: 9925

What can I do to startup my database.
My database version is oracle 7.3.4.
and My OS version HP-UX 10.20.

hi maye

Ensure the Oracle audit directory has read and write permissions for the oracle user.

Check:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms
ls -ald audit

Permissions should be 775. (rwxrwxr-x)
Owner: oracle user

I have already did that thing and still ends up with the same error. What could be the possible solution for this?

ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file
Cause: ORACLE was not able to create the file being used to hold audit trail records.
Action: Check the UNIX error number for a possible operating system error. If there is no error, contact ORACLE customer support.

Check for the value of AUDIT_FILE_DEST and the directory mentioned in the parameter exists.

hi,

the audit directory should be in the oracle_home directory!

cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit

you can verify this by querying it using svrmgrl:

SVRMGR> connect internal
Connected.
SVRMGR> show parameter audit
NAME TYPE VALUE
----------------------------------- ------- --------------
audit_file_dest string ?/rdbms/audit
audit_trail string NONE
transaction_auditing boolean TRUE
SVRMGR>

Hi Maye,

What value do you have for audit parameters (select name, value
from v$parameter
where name like '%audit%';)?

Is the unix user that is attempting to start the database the same as the Oracle software owner?

Check the ownership and permissions on
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit
also ensure there is available free space in that directory.

Hi Maye,

ORA-09925: HP-UX Error: 2: No such file or directory Additional information: 9925.

The OS error indicates that either the directory is full or does not exists. So the file could not be created.


ORA-09925: Unable to create audit trail file
HP-UX Error: 2: No such file or directory
Additional information: 9925

This problem occurs when:
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit directory is full or directory doesn't exist

This error happens only on Unix systems. Oracle tries to create an audit file even if auditing is not enabled. By default this information is written to $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit or to the directory specified by init.ora parameter audit_file_dest.

To fix this:

1. Ensure the directory $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit or the directory specified by the init.ora parameter AUDIT_FILE_DEST exists, is writable by the oracle software owner and that the disk is not full. Make space available in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit or AUDIT_FILE_DEST by removing files that are not needed.

2. Check $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle has permission of 6755. If not, then correct the permissions by executing this from the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory:
chmod 6755 oracle
