How to start OEM in Linux?
Sikandar Hayat, September 24, 2003 - 11:54 am UTC
I am trying to connect to OMS (oracle 9.2) but getting the message "VTK-1000". I think I have to start the management server first and it was just starting a service in win but unable to find a way in Linux to start the OMS. In the services there is no Oracle services so how can I start OMS on RH9?
Thanks in advance for your co.
Done
Sikandar Hayat, September 24, 2003 - 12:06 pm UTC
The following worked,
$oemctl start oms
OMS not starting

Hi Tom,
i am trying to start OracleManagementServer from the command prompt
oemctl start oms
I am getting these errors in the file oms.nohup

So I checked the file omsconfig.properties for the database instance, username and password. The contents of the file are as follows:
#OMS Configuration Properties

oem.BootPort=7771
OEM.REPOSITORY.USER=OEMREP1_mc
OEM.REPOSITORY.DATABASE_ORIG=mc:1521:oemrep1
When I go into command prompt and give the following :

If I check in a trace file, I see the following:
ORA-01157: cannot identify/lock data file 11 - see DBWR trace file
ORA-01110: data file 11: 'C:\ORADATA\SID\PT\PT_1.DBF'

O/S-Error: (OS 5) Access is denied.
But why is it giving some error about the datafile in another SID rather than OEMREP1. Am I doing something wrong? I need your guidance.
Thanks.

the init file used to open that server is pointing to control files that say "open this file"
Do you have a dba around that can help you sort out why your init files are messed up or what the underlying cause here is?
this is nothing to do with the mgmt server at all -- everything to do with a scrambled set of parameter files (probably)
A reader, December 27, 2004 - 5:06 pm UTC
This is my first dba assignment. What do I have to check and do to sort all this out? Pls help.
Thanks.
December 27, 2004 - 5:30 pm UTC
your init files, who set this up in the first place? aren't they available to at least "talk to"
A reader, December 27, 2004 - 5:32 pm UTC
I set up the init.ora files.
Now after reading your response, I tried doing the foll:
set oracle_sid=oemrep1
sqlplus /nolog
connect sys/pw as sysdba;
startup pfile='c:\oracle\admin\oemrep1\pfile\init.ora';
This instance oemrep1 was created using emca. But still I am getting the same error. What do I do now?
December 27, 2004 - 6:31 pm UTC
do you know/understand what control files and such are? do you know where the pfile for this data or spfile is/should be?
is there a chance you messed up and added the same named file to two databases on the same machine.
I suggest you contact support and open a tar, they are better situated than I am to walk you thru all of this stuff ..
how about call support
Jim, December 27, 2004 - 6:19 pm UTC
If this is your first day on the job and you have never set up Oracle before I would call support and have them spend time with you trying to fix your problem.
Try this.

Re: set credentials in OMS on Oracle 9i ( In Reply To : set credentials in OMS on Oracle 9i ) Dec 29, 2004 8:50 AM
PROBLEM: CAN NOT GET PREFERRED CREDENTIALS TO SAVE IN ORACLE 9i on REDHAT 9
SOLUTION: USING ROOT, EDIT THE FILE /etc/sysconfig/i18n
CHANGE THE FOLLOWING TWO LINES;
1.) LANG="en_US.UTF-8" to LANG="en_US"
2.) SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en" to SUPPORTED="en_US:en"
3.) Completely drop your OEM repository
4.) Restart your system
5.) Restart Oracle 9i (if it hasn't already been started)
6.) Create a new OEM repository
7.) Start the Intelligent Agent(s) ($orahome/bin/agentctl start)
8.) Start the OMS Server ($orahome/bin/oemctl start oms)
9.) Bring up the console ($ora_home/bin/oemapp console &)
10.) Log in with oms superadmin (default: sysman/oem_temp)
11.) Preferences/Preferred Credentials
12.) Set the username/password for a service (such as your node or database)
13.) Click on a different service and you will see a green check or red x in the right column. (make sure it is green by entering the correct user/pwd)
14.) Ok...you're set.
I spent a lot of frustration over getting this to work and read a post where you can't get it to work on RH9 due to a newer java thread lib. This is not altogether correct, as long as you use the correct java internationalization tokens as listed above, it will work.
I hope this helps save others time. This is the ONLY way I could get this to work without having to install a new kernel or some sort of patch (which doesn't exist...?)
GOOD LUCK!!

OEM Problem on Solaris
David Prabhakar, July 27, 2005 - 3:01 am UTC
Hi Tom,
Greetings! I apologize if I am disturbing you in your busy schedule. I am stuck here and need your expertise once again.
I am running an Oracle 9iR2 on Solaris 9 Platform. I have custom installed the Database with OEM tool.
I would like to use the OEM to enforce certain maintenance work like setting securities..etc.
Now when i try to start the OEMCTL I get the following error.
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle dba 7846 May 3 14:36 oemctl
bash-2.05$ oemctl start oms
OEMCTL for Solaris: Version 9.2.0.1.0 Production

Starting the Oracle Management Server...
Could not connect to the OMS: possible error in the configuration file.
bash-2.05$
I really dont know what to edit in the configuration file of the OMS. Please help me in this issue.
Note: I was able to start the DBCA from solaris and configure new database. so, I guess no issues related to terminal settings like ( xhost + ).
Thanks for your valuable time and response.
regards,
David.

troubleshooting the connectivity issues
Srikanth, November 07, 2007 - 1:17 am UTC
Hi Tom,
Good Morning
i am new to Oracle Database,yesterday in an interview the interviewer asked me like this.....
i am having a database and there are total 500 users.one day i found out that only 400 users are able to connect to the database...so how you will troubleshoot this problem(note: remaining 100 users are valid users only..i.e they are having correct login ids, pwds and their validity period dint expired)
what are things i need to concentrate now...?
Thanks and Regards

first and only question should be:
so, what error or symptom are they experiencing.
Next question and or course of action depends on the answer to that.
