Hi All

We have a fairly new Oracle Financials 11i installation running on a
two-tier Windows platform.
One server is running the database and the concurrent manager and the
other server runs the forms server and Apache.

I am having huge problems trying to automate the shutdown (and
subsequent cold backup) or the database: The Concurrent Manager Service
will not stop! - so then the database will not stop.

I have tried the Oracle supplied scripts and have tried the 'NET STOP
<Service Name>' : Both result in the error "Could not stop the
OracleConcMgr<SID> service on local Computer. Error 1053 The service did
not respond to the request in a timely fashion"

The only way I can achieve this is by killing all the FNDLIBR.exe
processes left after the Attempt to stop the service fails.
Agreed....... A terrible way to do things.

Has anyone successfully managed to get scripts (ON WINDOWS 2000) to
gracefully shut the database and all other Oracle services down??

I end up having to do this manually from home late at night.

Many thanks
