ORA-56865 Invalid IP in CELLINIT.ORA

ronald_2017Jul 15 2025

Hello All,

I'm encountering the ORA-56865 error on a Windows Server 2019 virtual machine running Oracle APEX. This is not an Exadata environment, and I’m a bit confused since this error seems related to Exadata configurations. What do you recommnend?

Oracle Database 19c Enterprise Edition Release 19.0.0.0.0 - Production 
Version 19.3.0.0.0 

Here's the error message:

Error in cellinit.ora. Error(37)=Config file errors: lrminit fail 
Unexpected error 56865 in job slave process 
<error barrier> at 0x000000868035DEA8 placed kkj.c@1175
