    Hi ,

    I'm trying to create a 9i database. I've created the instance using the oradim utility.

    then I connect to sql using sqlplus /nolog

    when I try to do connect / as sysdba or
    connect sys/passwd@dbname as sysdba, it gives me an error either saying service handle not initialised or invalid username/password.

    Can you please let me know where I'm going wrong.
    This is oracle9.0.1.3 on win2000.

    thanks a lot

    I've already started the service in control panel. But when I try to do conn / as sysdba, it stops the started service.

    thanks a lot
