Hi all,
Our win2k oracle-db server bsod:ed last night, possibly due to the MS-patch
Tuesday.
At boot it stated the %systemroot%\system32\config\software hive was corrupt. I
managed to copy the software-file from %windir%\repair and it booted properly,
but the users can't connect to the db. As far as I can see in Process Explorer,
the db starts up properly. At least oracle.exe is started. I'm a db-noob and
our
db-admin is on paternity-leave...
I was thinking, does Win2k have some kind of system restore facility, because
rstrui.exe doesn't work...?
I *think* if I somehow could load up the old software-file in regedit, I could
copy back the hklm\software branch from the old software-hive to the new
software-file.
Or should I rather try to put back the old software-file and boot "last known
good..."-thing instead?
Any insights?
