data guard standby creation

677952Mar 5 2010 — edited Mar 11 2010
I am trying to create a data guard stand by database.
Have two machines oratest5 - primary and oratest7 - standby.
When I run a command:
startup nomount pfile='D:\oracle\initoratest7.ora';
getting an error.
SQL> startup nomount pfile='D:\oracle\initoratest7.ora';
LRM-00117: syntax error at ',' at the start of input
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters

If I save initoratest7.ora using a unicode encoding getting different error:

SQL> startup nomount pfile='D:\oracle\initoratest7.ora';
LRM-00123: invalid character 0 found in the input file
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters

Whats wrong with it ?


Release 11.1.0.6.0 on windows 2003 x64.
