Upgrade Error from Oracle 10.1 to 10.2

[Former Member]

Hi to all:

We have problem in the upgrade of RDBMS Oracle from the version 10.1 to 10.2. When the upgrade system finish without failures we can´t start the database. In the oratrace file we can see the following error:

tkcrrsarc: (WARN) Failed to find ARCH for message (message:0x1)

tkcrrpa: (WARN) Failed initial attempt to send ARCH message (message:0x1)

ORA-00704: bootstrap process failure

ORA-39700: database must be opened with UPGRADE option

Error 704 happened during db open, shutting down database

USER: terminating instance due to error 704

Instance terminated by USER, pid = 893170

ORA-1092 signalled during: ALTER DATABASE OPEN...

Can anybody help us????

Thanks in advance.

I'm surprised that you are using Oracle 10.1. I thought that SAP never supported that version...

[markus_doehr2]

It was supported as RampUp version (only)...

What did you do to do the upgrade? Just installing the software is not enough... Did you follow the upgrade guide at http://service.sap.com/instguides (did you run the pre-update scripts?)

Hi,

Probably you can try this

sqlplus '/as sysdba'

> startup upgrade

The database now opens successfully after which execute

>@catalog.sql and

>@cataproc.sql

> Shutdown

>startup

Let me know the result.

Juan,

I can't tell exactly what went wrong but reading the message, it sounds like the Upgrade hasn't finished properly.

Take a look at the following:

Note 316889.1 - Complete checklist for manual upgrades to 10gR2

Note:420146.1 - What is the Best Way to Upgrade to 10g?

thanks
