Deprecated parameters are usually listed in the doc (see Appendix A of the 
upgrade doc:

http://st-doc.us.oracle.com/10/101/server.101/b10763/changes.htm#I638061)

Alternatively, IIRC, you actually get warned about deprecated parameters if you 
use DBUA instead of doing it manually.  :)

Michael,

It should be in the alert log.  That's where I found my errors.  Check your
init.ora BDUMP parameter to make sure you are looking in the correct place.


You can always start commenting out various init.ora params to find the
offending one.

Getting an ORA-32004 starting up an Oracle9i (9.2.0.4) database.

Standard documentation says more info on this message, including the
cause, is available in the alert log, but alas, nothing there.  Several
threads with this same issue on metalink are left dangling.  Has anyone
encountered the secret place where oracle might be hiding the info about
the deprecated parameter?

Pete,

I should have stated the OS version.
That box is w2k Adv svr sp4.
I can start and stop the service just fine from the
gui.

I would still contend that someone outside of
marketing needs to be consulted in choosing syntax.
This is simply a nuisuance, not a real bug.

thanks for testing - what OS version did you test
against?

Paul


C:\WINNT\system32>net helpmsg 2185

The service name is invalid.


EXPLANATION

You tried to start a service that is not configured on
this system.

ACTION

Check the spelling of the service name or check the configuration
information for the service using the Services option from Server
Manager.
