Error starting OID 11g during configuration stage of OID installation on Windows Server “ProvisionException: Failed to start the component”

I discussed about OID 11g installation here, here and here . I also discussed OID start-up issues here, here and here(Post from Mahendra)
.

In today’s post I am going to cover another OID 11g installation issue on Windows during OID start-up phase with errors like

________
D:\Oracle\IDM\Oracle_IDM1  D:\Oracle\IDM\asinst_1  asinst_1
oracle.as.config.ProvisionException: Failed to start the component at
oracle.as.provisioning.fmwadmin.ASComponentProv.createComponent(ASComponent Prov.java:157)
_________

.
If you hit OID startup issue during installation on Windows then look for OID Logs under

%ORACLE_INTSANCE%\diagnostics\ logs\ OID\ oid1 \ *.log and %ORACLE_INTSANCE%\diagnostics\ logs\ OPMN\ opmn
.

In my case error in oidldapd01-0000.log was like
_______
[2011-05-12T22:14:40-07:00] [OID] [NOTIFICATION:16] [] [OIDLDAPD] [host: oidserver] [pid: 2148] [tid: 0] Main:: Exec of OIDLDAPD failed with error

[2011-05-12T22:14:40-07:00] [OID] [NOTIFICATION:16] [] [OIDLDAPD] [host: oidserver] [pid: 2148] [tid: 0] Main:: FATAL : DispatcherController : OS -1 : Error creating server pool

[2011-05-12T22:14:41-07:00] [OID] [NOTIFICATION:16] [] [OIDLDAPD] [host: oidserver] [pid: 2148] [tid: 0] Main:: WARNING : DispatcherController : OiD LDAP server exiting with status -1
_________
.
Checked and verified that hostname in hosts file was listed in format

[IP of server]  serverName.domainname  serverName
.
There was no other in OID or OPMN logs apart from log mentioned above. I then checked sqlnet.log under %ORACLE_HOME%\ network\ log and found following messages

________
Directory does not exist for read/write [D:\Oracle\IDM\Oracle_IDM1\log] [] Directory does not exist for read/write [D:\Oracle\IDM\Oracle_IDM1\log] [] Directory does not exist for read/write [D:\Oracle\IDM\Oracle_IDM1\log] [] Directory does not exist for read/write [D:\Oracle\IDM\Oracle_IDM1\log] [] ________

Fix: Create directory log\diag\clients  under %ORACLE_HOME% i.e. D:\Oracle\IDM\Oracle_IDM1 and start OID configuration again .
