Hi Tim,

I will go this way because there is an (maybe only for my) misteriose thing on that system: I found an ora81- And Ora81-Folder in the same Directory under Win2003. Is that possible? Maybe my database installation script took the first (empty) Ora81 directory an failed therefore?

The Oracle- and the Listener-Services are installed but NO db file is created in the db directory...

I installed Oracle many times but this never happened to me.

Maybe my fault is, I installed the Oracle software not by myself ...

Greetings from Christian
