Oracle 10g Upgrade

Hi,

I have oracle database running on my machine(version 10.2.0.1). I have upgraded it into 10.2.0.3, using patchset downloaded. Before upgradation, I have stopped Oracle service(this was a requirement). After oracle patchset installed, I am not able to start my oracle service. Please assist me in this regard. I tried to restart my server machine, but no result. I am getting error as "the service did not respond to the start or conrol request in a timely fashion". Please assist me in this regard as my database is down now.

Thanks in advance

Did you go through all the steps of migration as indicated in Readme.

After version change, you have to do STARTUP MIGRATE to complete the migration.
