Niall,
Make sure someone didn't try starting another instance.
It's all case sensitive.
Not sure why you require a trailing slash in your system. I don't have
trailing slash and all works fine.
What linux version?
I'm onRed Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4)

I'm betraying my ignorance here so be gentle. We configured an oracle
account with an ORACLE_HOME environment variable ( in .bash_profile) of
/path/to/oracle/home
and also set the PATH as $ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH $ORACLE_SID was also set
correctly.
connecting to the running database gave 'initialisation or shutdown in
progress'. If however we ran oraenv we were able to connect. On comparison
we discovered that if we set ORACLE_HOME as
/path/to/oracle/home/ (trailing /)
then we could connect just fine. My question is why is the trailing slash
apparently necessary?
