Where is DBCA Log Location

DBCA Log Location

Two locations that you can see the trace log of Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA).

  1. DBCA log location
  2. The file path and name format of DBCA log would be:

    $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/dbca/<DB_NAME>/trace.log-YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MI-SSAM

    For example, /u01/app/oracle/cfgtoollogs/dbca/ORCL/trace.log_2019-07-14_10-56-26PM.

    Or simply a trace.log without timestamp.

    $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/dbca/<DB_NAME>/trace.log
  3. Alert log location
  4. It's the same as the alert location of this instance.

    $ORACLE_BASE/diag/rdbms/<db_name>/$ORACLE_SID/trace/alert_$ORACLE_SID.log

For example, /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/orcl/ORCL1/trace/alert_ORCL1.log.
