Hi,

Please help!

I tried to create a second database TESTDB beside the default ORCL on a WINS 2000 Server box. Thus, after shutting down the default db, I did the followings to create the Service and tried to start the instance but I got the error message (at the end of the following)
***************************************
C:>set oracle_sid = TESTDB

C:>oradim -new -sid TESTDB -intpwd admin -startmode auto -pfile C:OracleadminTESTDBpfileinitTESTDB.ora

I couldn't help but notice a spelling typo. Instead of ORA you have typed OA for the extention of your initiazation file.

Thanks for your help.

I did start the service before trying to starting up the instance, but still no luck!

Following the steps:

1. Using an old parameter file to create a new initTESTDB.ora. Be sure to edit the parameters properly.

2. Run command:
oradim -new -sid TESTDB -intpwd admin -startmode
auto -pfile C:OracleadminTESTDBpfileinitTESTDB.ora

3. set oracle_sid=testdb

4. SVRBGR> connect internal
password:

5: SVRMGR> startup nomount

(make sure the initTESTDB.ora exists.)
