oracle.01081 cannot,Error --ORA-01081: cannot start already-running ORACLE - shut it down first

check any process running with name ora by typing

ps -ef | grep ora

kill -9 process_name

try to start again, if you still get any problem, may be to do with Semaphores

Follow the steps to remove semaphore

Removing a semaphore set for Oracle

root> ipcs -sb|grep oracle

s 67 0x00000000

ra-r--- oracle dba 400

s 223 0x00000000

ra-r--- oracle dba 400

s 334 0x00000000

ra-r--- oracle dba 300

Now, you can remove the semaphores from the list. In this example, we assume that set 223 is the one for the crippled database.

root> ipcrm -s 223

hope it helps.

BY the way what is the operating system
