Make sure that ORACLE_SID = <new instance> before trying this. That should work for you my friend. I'm using anothers account as I'm a Consultant working for Oracle Corp. at a customer site and was browsing this news group and decided to answer. You may contact me at dabrown_at_us.oracle.com if this does not work and we can correspond about it.
