The correct syntax for create database is: create database "TEST"

    maxinstances 2
    maxlogfiles 5
    maxdatafiles 254
    character set "WE8DEC" -- notice the quotes.     datafile

        '/disk1/oradata/TEST/system1.dbf' size 40M     logfile

        '/disk2/oradata/TEST/redo1.log' size 1M,
        ....  ;
        

An example of this and rollback segs creation is on the site
