Hi everybody

I successfully installed oracle 9i on an Win XP system. But when I tried to create a database using Database Configuration Assistant I suffered problems.

I tried to create a:

General Purpose, Typical Configuration DB

But when the Assistant comes to create and initialize the database the following error occurs:

CreateProcess: null -new -sid MTEST -startmode m error=2

Then it gives the ORA 12560 error.

When I check the services I can not find a service named OracleServiceMTEST. I think this is the reason for the ORA 12560 message but why can not I create a service process during the database creation and receive the error above.

Moreover,

when I type SQLPLUS "/ AS SYSDBA" in command prompt, it says "insufficient privilidges"

I think this has something to do with the user that I am logging into the system but when I check the user, I can see that my user is in the ORA_DBA group

Does anyone have any ideas about the problem?

Thanks in advance,

Kind regards

Should I create the process when I receive this message and then continue?

first check your settings in os. in windows this error has occurred before if the regional options are NOT SET TO United States.
if so, and if changing the regional settings is permissible please do it and give a try.
else
first create the service manually
start the service
and then start the installation.
