</H2>
<P>The files shipped by Oracle in the 7.2.x product are incorrect in assuming that you want to setup a parallel server configuration. The shipped <CODE>init.ora</CODE> file has the following line in it:

# define parallel server (multi-instance) parameters
ifile = ora_system:initps.ora

To fix the problem simply comment it out:
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
<HR>
<PRE>
# define parallel server (multi-instance) parameters
#ifile = ora_system:initps.ora

Hi Paul,
first of all thanks for your help,but none of the possible problems you are
thinking about were responsible for my problem.
The problem is the iBCS-emulator itself.
It seems that Oracle performs an sysconf-calls which isn't supported in the
current version of iBCS.
Look at the trace :
&lt;7>[22]615 sysconf(34)
&lt;7>iBCS2 unsupported sysconf call 34
&lt;7>[22]615 sysconf error return linux=-22 -> ibcs=22 &lt;Invalid argument>
&lt;7>[24]615 sysconf(34)
&lt;7>iBCS2 unsupported sysconf call 34
&lt;7>[24]615 sysconf error return linux=-22 -> ibcs=22 &lt;Invalid argument>
Solution: patching the iBCS-source.apply the following diff-pach :
