I'm trying to create my first database in Oracle 21c. I want to do it manually
the first time. I'm following the steps I've used in the past when creating an
Oracle 19c container database, but I'm having a strange issue that I've never
run into before.
When I try to create the database, it says it can't find the init.ora file.
The file is in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs (/oracle/app/product/21.0.0.0/dbs)
directory, as it always has been, but it is looking for it in the
$ORACLE_BASE/dbs (/oracle/app/dbs) directory instead. Is this a change with
21c? The environment is configured the same as in the past. How do I fix it?
