Had the same problem on 10gR2. Downloaded owbcollect.sql from Oracle. Indicated that client needed utl_file_dir=* in init.ora file. Also indicated that OWBHOME was not identified in column SERVER_SIDE_HOME in table WB_RT_SERVICE_NODES. Once I added the utl_file_dir entry in the init.ora file and updated wb_rt_service_nodes with the correct owbhome, service_doctor ran successfully and the control center starts automatically. Need to be careful, even thought Oracle indicates setting utl_file_dir=*, this can be a security risk/hazard. Could potentially allow users to overwrite sys or datafiles.

It is awkward and should have been changed ages ago. But nothing new under the sun. Although Control Center was named run time service in 9.2.
