insallation problem

[omegamark]

I am trying to install 8.1.6 in my home computer.

I went for the typical option .

The database config assistant failed to create the custom database.This was the only error during the insatllation.

I uninstalled and installed 3 times then also the same problem.

Then i tried to create the database .The services are all registed by using oradim

when invoking svrmgrl it says end of communication

with error no ora-03113..

any ideas

What is the error you are encountering? Could you tell me that?

* Do you have enough memory - problems could happen beacuse of the lake of memery - if you are using NT increase swap file size.

* Do you have bad sectors on your hard drive - use scandisk to determine this

* Do you encounter this problems only with ORACLE , I mean does all other software works correctly.

Kindly give more information like :

- errors returned + its numbers
- Operating system type
- Machine configuration
- If NT , what service pack is installed

Run the command line...

Try typing:

set ORACLE_SID=YOURSIDNAME
set LOCAL=YOURTNSALIAS

You may only need the first one actually, I'd try that first, but I can't check at the moment.

Then try running svrmgrl again from the same command prompt window.

Terry i tried what you said then also i have the same problem.
The service is getting registered but when invoking the server manager i get end of communication error.

i have reduced the db_block_size,and all other parameters also.

i have 128mb ram still the issue has not been resolved...

do you have enough free disk space. I never used the create db within the installer so do not know where oracle wants to put the datafiles.

Can u just install oracle and then create a db with the db assistant (really easy) Like this u can choose file location etc...
