OSD-04001: invalid logical block size (OS 2800189884)

ZulqarnainApr 25 2007 — edited Apr 26 2007
My Windows 2003 crashed which was running Oracle XE.

I installed Oracle XE on Windows XP on another machine.

I coped my D:\oracle\XE10g\oradata folder of Win2003 to the same location in WinXP machine.

When I start the database in WinXP using SQLPLUS i get the following message

SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.
