Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

In trying to upgrade an 11.2.0.3 database to 11.2.0.4 using DBUA we get an error. The trace log shows the following:

[CompManager.startUpDBifDown:10197] Error in starting datbase with default init file

We have an spfile in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory that is owned by oracle. Any ideas on what to do to troubleshoot this?
