Symptoms

• Oracle Internet Directory (OID) Directory Integration Platform (DIP) had previously working odisrv Provisioning process, on instance=1 configset=0, suddenly failed to run.
  
  For OID version 10.1.4 or higher, running  oidctl connect=<SID> status  returns:
  
  
  Checking ODISRV instance 1 ...
  sgslupsCheckProcess: sigsend to pid <pid#> failed, os error = 3
  Process odisrv is not running
• oidmon keeps attempting to restart it, which fails with same above error logged in  $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/log/oidmon.log.
  
  OID version 10.1.4.2 or higher $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/log/odisrv01.log shows error:

• Double-checking the other odisrv process (sync on instance=2 configset=1), it is found to be running with no errors in its corresponding $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/log/odisrv02.log
• The following also do not help:
  
  • Stopping both odisrv processes with oidctl.
  • Stopping and restarting OID with 'opmnctl stopall' then 'opmnctl startall'.
  
  
  • Double-checking that no other DIP odisrv processes were running, with command:
    
    
    ps -ef | grep odisrv
  
  
  • Cleanly restarting the OID LDAP server only with opmnctl startproc ias-component=OID.
  
  
  • Starting only the odisrv for Prov as per <Document 462523.1> for OID version 10.1.4.2 and higher:
    
    
    oidctl connect=<SID> server=odisrv instance=1 configset=0 flags="host=<hostname> port=<non-ssl port> grpid=default debug=63" start
    
    Or as per <Document 262985.1> for OID version 10.1.4.0.1 and lower.
