Hi,

I am trying to create a testinstance on Win2000. Software is 8.1.7.0.0. When running oradim the service is created, but no controlfile is created, and thus the instance is not started. I am logged in as local administrator. I guess I am missing something simple, but I just cannot see what? Please if anyone can spot the error in the files given below!

RUN FROM COMMANDLINE:
oradim -new -sid HBMS -startmode a -pfile "D:\Eg\Database\inithbms_8i.ora"
