database starting problem

[Ravi_8]

Hi all
We have DB2 7.1 and oracle 8.1.5 on HP 11.0
we had forgotten to shutdown the oracle while shutting the machine for DB2 maintenence. After booting, we trying to start oracle, it shoots the error like this:

$dbstart
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /database/ora815/base/product/8.1.5/bin/svrmgrl because of the following errors:
0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for svrmgrl because:
0509-136 Symbol pw_post (number 252) is not exported from dependent module /unix

0509-136 Symbol pw_wait (number 253) is not exported from
dependent module /unix.
0509-136 Symbol pw_config (number 254) is not exported from
dependent module /unix.
0509-136 Symbol aix_ora_pw_version3_required (number 255) is not exported from
dependent module /unix.
0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
'dump -Tv' command.


What could be the problem. I am not able to get into the database using svrmgrl.
does anybody knows the solution?

TIA

Hi,

Seems like your library links are messed up. Why don't you try to relink the oracle library and give it a try.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

This might occur, if you had not run the rootpre.sh after the installation process.

The solution is to Run (or re-run) rootpre.sh from distribution media:

1.Insert Oracle Server 8.1.6 CD into CD-ROM drive:

(If not mounted automatically , you can mount the cdrom,using the following commands

# mount -r -v cdrfs /dev/cd0 /cdrom)


2. cd /cdrom

3 ./rootpre.sh

This will install (or re-install) the AIO kernel extension (pw-syscall).


Hope this helps.

Hi, Alan

I am feeling like assigning 100 points, but max is the 10.

Thanx a lot 4 ur answer

Hi Ravi,

Glad your problem has been solved. The rootpre.sh or root.sh from the installation CD relinks the library on the oracle side.
