Hi,
I am getting this error, when i try logging into the database.
ORA-01033: ORACLE initialization or shutdown in progress.
I guess I tried shutting down the db, when there was a huge transaction pending. I am not concerned of teh transaction now, but need to get my database up and running asap.
My environment: Oracle 9i on Windows 2k Server.

Please help. Very, very Urgent.

start svrmgrl
connect internal
shutdown immediate ...
startup

If it fails ..or it's too long
start svrmgrl
connect internal
shutdown abort
startup

Will do automatic recover. Please use the last option if you can do anything else....

Hello,

There is no svrmgrl in 9i.

You have to connect sys to down the database.

Process:

At sql prompt

sql>connect sys/password@string as sysdba
sql>shutdown normal or abort

All the best.

Shutdown Normal will take a bit time.

All the best.

I gather you did a shutdown immediate?. When you do this you mush rollback all of your uncommited transactions. After running large uncommited jobs this can take hours. You can use a shutdown abort or startup force, though you do increase risk having some problems.
