Sqlplus crashes after shutdown immediate

3194571Aug 22 2016 — edited Aug 23 2016

Hi all,

I'd like to configure database for extended data types. I need to run following commands to do this:

sqlplus sys/password@orcl as sysdba

SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;

STARTUP UPGRADE;

ALTER SYSTEM SET max_string_size=extended;

@?/rdbms/admin/utl32k.sql

SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;

STARTUP;

After running "SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE", I can't connect to the oracle instance anymore.

When I run "STARTUP UPGRADE" I get a segmentation fault error (I guess it happens because sqlplus can't connect to oracle instance).

I use sqlplus from oracle database installation (database and sqlplus run on the same machine).

Do I need to change configuration to run "STARTUP UPGRADE"?

Is there any other way to run oracle in upgrade mode without using sqlplus?

I found that the crash happens submitting any sql command if you shutdown database before that.
