And the consequences of doing this would be....??

Why don't you try and help the guy actually resolve the issue (which is a global database name error) rather than come up with whizz-kid quick-fixes which cause untold problems later down the line??

To the original poster: look in the documentation, or on google archives, as to how you rename your global database name. You didn't specify one when you created the database, and Oracle has thoughtfully provided a default.
