CAUSE:

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/oidldapd file have the wrong permissions:

SOLUTION:

Follow below action plan:

 cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
chown oracle:oinstall oidldapd
chmod 0710 oidldapd

Note:
In my case OID services are configured with oracle user and oinstall

Now, OID services should come up.

Thank you for referring my blog, please post your comments for any queries/suggestions..Have a nice time :)
