Hi,

I am trying to create a second database on my machine. Here are the steps

- created a new service named MSE
- logged in sqlplus with /as sysdba username/password
- made a pfile (p.ora) with only three parameter
db_name =mse
instance_name=mse
compatible = 10.2.0.1

- startup nomount pfile = d:\p.ora
- alter system set db_create_file_dest= 'd:\files\data'
- alter system set db_create_online_log_dest_1= 'd:\files\log'

then Create database mse;

this gives an error Ora-01092 Oracle instance terminated. Disconnection forced

Any idea why this happens?

Thanks for the reply

Where do I need to give the password? I am doing it manually so I was not asked for one. Let me know

you were right I had to specify the control_file, backgound_dump_ dest, user_dump_dest, undo_tablespace, undo_management clause..but I thought as I had specified OMF path Oracle will automatically put these in them.

I was able to successfully create the database

...Where do I need to give the password?...
YOu need to create password file through ORAPWD utility.
search on forms/google for more details about ORAPWD utility.

...I was able to successfully create the database...

The password file is required to allow you to start/stop/backup etc the database remotely, also if your going to use DBConsole your going to need a password file as well.

It lets you login "as sysdba" when your not on the database server.
