Unable to access Oracle DB after hostname change

gamatoJul 30 2016 — edited Aug 2 2016

Hi Guys,

I really need some serious advice here. Allow me brief you on what happened.

All this time my Oracle server was running fine, until one day someone changed the hostname of the Oracle server without any clue of consequence of doing so.
Then I restarted the server few days ago and found out that I could not access Oracle DB and the listener could not be started.

I edited the hostname on listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files and the listener could start successfully.
However, I could not connect to Oracle database unless I logged in using sysdba account.


I removed previous DBConsole Repository and replaced CONTROL02.CTL file in order to match CONTROL01.CTL file in D:\app\Administrator\oradata\PIRDB folder
But this is as far as I can get. Below are some command results which might help troubleshooting. Any advice will be much appreciated.
