Hi

I need to create one more database on same server. One database is already running on the system but that is our test server which we have to synchronize after every 15 days so we just remove all dbf files and place from production so we need to create another database on the same server which we will not touch at the time of synchronize.
Please tell me some steps how to create another database on a same system where one is already running.

I wouldn't know. But document I provided contains "steps" you are looking for.

Perhaps you should wait for DBA's opinion(s) (before taking any of those steps).

ok.
Will it not overwrite my previous data files as already exist on server?
And I am taking DBA's opinion with the help of this Smile

CREATE DATABASE statement caution:
Oracle

Caution:
This statement prepares a database for initial use and erases any data currently in the specified files. Use this statement only when you understand its ramifications.

Handle with care!

I just decide to use DBCA.
But when I create database it gives error
ORA-09925:unable to create audit trail file
ORA-01012:not logged on
ORA-01031:insufficient privileges

I checked this error and give proper privilege to admin using chmod 777 cmd.
But still problem exist what should I do?

You need to create dedicated areas for udump/adump etc in your ORACLE_BASE.
DBCA will do it for you, based on OFA along with your ORACLE_SID.
Provided you do have proper OS Privs (in dba group) it should be all fine.
DBCA or even create database statement will not override the files, unless you ask it Smile

.
Make sure you use another ORACLE_SID, another path (with OFA).

09925, 00000,  "Unable to create audit trail file"
// *Cause:  ORACLE was not able to create the file being used to hold
//          audit trail records.
// *Action: Check the UNIX error number for a possible operating system error.
//          If there is no error, contact ORACLE customer support.

But I tried database creation through DBCA on three server independently and I got the same errors on all of them.
Then I tried on my personal system on which windows7 installed
and it creates successfully.

Can you please give me some solution what should I do?

>Can you please give me some solution what should I do?
I suspect you have some sort of OS permission problem.

DBCA creates a log file which should contain clues as to why dbca fails.

When all else fails, Read The Fine Manual.
