I have installed Oracle 12c R2 on my local Windows 10 (64 Bit) machine. For the installation I choose only to install the software.
After the installation I have used the tool that comes with the installation to create databases. After the first database was created and started I was able to connect to it without any problems.
But after I created a second database and restarted the machine only the newly created database was started.
The first database is not started on boot and I cannot start it using sqlplus. I get the error
SQL> startup
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
LRM-00109: Parameterdatei 'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\12.2.0\DBHOME_1\DATABASE\INITDBNAME.ORA' konnte nicht ge┐ffnet werden
The said file does in fact not exist. But such a file does also not exist for the other database. The directory contains a SPFILE<DBNAME>.ORA
though for both databases. As far as I know oracle uses this pattern SPFILE<DBNAME>.ORA
when starting the database. If cant find said file it goes on to use INIT<DBNAME>.ORA
.
I have created a INITDBNAME.ORA file and added the content:
SPFILE = 'D:\SPFILEDBNAME.ORA'
and tryed to start the database using startup pfile = 'D:\INITDBNAME.ORA'
but the result was a
ORA-00205: Fehler beim Identifizieren der Kontrolldatei
error. Also confusing was that if the pfile was inside the Oracle Directory the command failed saying it cannot access the file.
EDIT
After I have deleted both instances, rebooted and created both instances again I can currently access them both.
When I try to login to the first instance I get the following error:
ERROR:
ORA-01116: Fehler beim Íffnen der Datenbankdatei 5
ORA-01110: Datendatei 5:
'D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\INSTANCE\DATAFILE\O1_MF_UNDOTBS1_DPKMRD6L_.DBF'
ORA-27041: Datei kann nicht ge÷ffnet werden
OSD-04002: Datei kann nicht ge÷ffnet werden
O/S-Error: (OS 5) Zugriff verweigert
EDIT
The Mirosoft Service Manager reports both inscantec as runngin.
Setting ORACLE_SID does not make any difference. After the installation of both instances I can connect via
sqlplus sys@instance1 as sysdba
or
sqlplus sys@instance2 as sysdba
But this goes well only for a short time. After couple of minutes it starts to throw ORA-01110 when I connect to the first instance.
The data files are not missing. They are in the location in which Oracle reports them missing.

I ran into the same problem. The database did not start with the service. First I checked the setting for the service using the Oracle Administration Assistant for Windows and configured the DB to start with the service start (by the way, I prefer the database to shut down immediately when the service is shut down).
But enabling the database to open at service start didn't solve the problem. Next I found that the folder
%ORACLE_HOME%\database
was read-only, and I did not succeed to clear this attribute using the properties dialog in the Windows Explorer. Theattrib
program showed no R flag, though...It was not possible to start up the database as SYSDBA from sqlplus either - I got the same LRM-00109 error. So I copied the
SPFILE
to anINIT<INSTANCE>.ora
file and edited it. Startup wasn't possible either, except when I usedI finally changed the service from running as a virtual account to running as Local System - that works...
The Oracle version I use is 12.2.0.1 - I guess there is some problem with it.
