Timezone issue and Oracle Enterprise Manager

This timezone issue can kill plenty of your time until if you are not resolved. I had this problem when I was running oem. I was having following error.


oracle@psycho$ ./emctl start dbconsole
Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control Release 10.1.0.4
Copyright (c) 1996, 2004 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.

Starting Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control ............................................................................................. failed.


There are several issues can raise this error. Since my case it was timezone issue, I'll request you to check whether your computer timezone is matching with your oem timezone or not.

This link http://how-to.wikia.com/wiki/Oracle_HOWTO:_change_Enterprise_Manager_Console_Timezone will tell you how to reset the timezone.

After resetting the timezone, you can start your oem easily.

This solution will work for both oracle 10g and 11g.
