Hi,

I have installed oracle 7.x in Windows 98 machine. It has installed Sqlplus,sql net, schema manager ,enterprise manager and others.

How to start with the local database. While installation, it did not ask for database name/ service name.

How should I create a database initially? Is it necessary to make entry in TNS file?

Whenever I try to start any of the installed product , it asks for oracle service name with user name and password.

I would appreciate your help.

thanks,
Satheesh.
