Re: "create database" problem on linux 7.2

I think I couldn't make it clear. I'm *NOT INSTALLING* anything here.. i'm just creating a database AFTER INSTALLATION

First, I successfully installed the 9i using 'oracle' user.

Then I created different user, assigned it to all groups i created during installation and tried to create different database from scratch.

Now are you telling me only installation user can create a database ??

Here is passage from from 9i Unix Installation Guide Pg: 47-48 ...
Scenario for Creating an ORAINVENTORY Group The following is a typical business scenario for which a separate ORAINVENTORY
group is needed:

• You have an operating system user named oracle1 with an OSDBA group of dba1.
• The oracle1 user works with a database named db11.
• You have another operating system user named oracle2 with an OSDBA group of dba2.
• The oracle2 user works with a database named db22.
• The db11 and db22 databases are installed in different ORACLE_HOME directories.
• The oracle1 user should have SYSDBA privileges in the db11 database, but should not have SYSDBA privileges in the db22 database.
• The oracle2 user should have SYSDBA privileges in the db22 database, but should not have SYSDBA privileges in the db11 database.

seems to me it's possible, it's not ?
