Re: NT: Got ora-1031 when creating database

Well, on the other hand, I'm bloody new to Oracle. But I can suspect that you're not in the administrator group. Perhaps, you might click on Start/Programs/Administrative Tools/User Manager for Domain (if Workstation, it would be User Manager only) and double click on Administrator from the group section (and verify that you're a member of that group;otherwise, just add).
Note: Remember, Windows NT Administrator isn't the same guy as root under UNIX (although everyone claim it to be:-)). There's such thing that administrator can't do either. And no matter who you are, you'll get that kind of error.
