Starting the Oracle service manually

  1. Start the listener control utility.

    cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
    ./lsnrctl start
    
  2. Verify that the listener control utility is started.

    ./lsnrctl service
    
  3. Start the Oracle database.

    cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
    ./sqlplus sys/iMC123 as sysdba
    SQL>startup
    SQL>exit
    
  4. Start the pluggable database. This step is required if the Oracle database is a container database.

    cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
    ./sqlplus sys/iMC123@PDBORCL as sysdba
    SQL>startup
    SQL>exit
    

    In the commands, PDBORCL is the network service name of the pluggable database.
