ERROR at line 1: ORA-32017: failure in updating SPFILE ORA-16179: 

incremental changes to "log_archive_dest_1" not allowed with SPFILE

When i try to enable Archivelog mode in production server, i faced this ORA-16179. 

production server is version 10.1.0.2 and host is solaris sparc 64bit.

Cause:

Incremental changes to a log_archive_dest_n parameter cannot be made when using an SPFILE. 

Solution: 

Specify either LOCATION or SERVICE plus all other attributes to  be set in one ALTER SYSTEM/SESSION SET command.

Action :

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_1 = 'LOCATION=/db1/archive';

System altered.
