This may be related to a security patch released by Microsoft that is not installed on your system:

Note 1375494 - SAP system does not start after applying SAP kernel patch

Hi Gurus,

Sorry for late reply, was busy with some other work..

it has been solved by changing Orcle environment parameters and changing sapstartsrv file to point to right startup profile.

Hi Venkat,

Why did you executed step 4 ? There was no need of it. Probably this is the reason you are in problem.

Ok now try to confirm whether DB is up or not. I see you are not able to logon to SQL prompt. First did you try to start Oracle Services ? Please start them if not done yet. Then logon to SQL prompt at command prompt and start Oracle DB using sqlplus.

Please check R3trans -d command and r3trans.log file before doing above activity and re-check this one after DB starts.

Paste the logs if possible.

Then try to put up sap services and mmc ...

Thanks
