oratab populated, but 11G database doesn't start
I've installed Oracle 11g on Redhat 5.
And created a database with dbca.
And set the oratab for it to start on boot.
But the database does not start on boot.
I noticed that there is more than one oratab file:
find / -type f -iname "oratab"
/etc/oratab
/oracle/oracle11/product/11.1.0/db_1/install/oratab
cat /etc/oratab
test:/oracle/oracle11/product/11.1.0/db_1:Y
The other file was empty:
ls -l /oracle/oracle11/product/11.1.0/db_1/install/oratab
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle11 dba 0 Jul 20 19:45 /oracle/oracle11/product/11.1.0/db_1/install/oratab
But I added the lines from the one file to the other.
And it still didn't come up when I rebooted.
Is 11G different from the previous versions?
What is the secret to getting the database to come up
automatically after rebooting the machine?
Thanks
