The reason I am not using the tool is because it also gives me a end-of-file error and I wasnt able to figure out where this is happenning.

Actually its is happenning when I am trying to connect to the database using server manager. Below are the first 3 steps of database creation and it gives ne an error when trying to open server manager and trying to connect as internal.

Please suggest.

C:\>set ORACLE_SID=JSH1

C:\>C:\oracle\ora81\bin\oradim -new -sid JSH1 -startmode manual -pfile "C:\oracl
e\admin\JSH1\pfile\initJSH1.ora"

C:\>C:\oracle\ora81\bin\svrmgrl @C:\oracle\ora81\assistants\dbca\JSH1run.sql
