I am running ORADIM from Oracle 8.1.6
.
It is run as a part of an application install which calls:
ORADIM -NEW -SID-USRPWD -STARTMODE AUTO -PFILE
from within a DOS batch file. ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID and PATH are set appropriately. The command creates the sevice and starts the database, I can login to the database with anyther DOS screen but the command does not return.
When I try to shutdown the service it does not return and if I try to shutdown the service I get an error saying overlapping operations and a DIM-00018 message.
I can't delete the service but this just disables it until I shutdown again. The service continues to have a "starting" status in services.
