Hi

Check to see weather you have a control file allready existing by that name whichever you have specified for your parameter controlfiles in your initialisation file.If it exist give a different path to those file or use reuse option if you want to overwrite those control files in ur create database command.

I think there is a control file by name control01.ctl allready over there.

No it's not , I'm sure. What else can cause the grief ?

I thought all the functionality of svrmgr has come to SQLPLUS in Oracle 8i. Why create database from svrmgr?
This does'nt answer your query though.
Can you delete the MAXLOGHISTORY option and retry?

Hi

first thing you should check is the permissions to the directory/file
also were any user trace files generated?

hope this helps
