I installed it on my PC running under WinNT 4(PS 4). Everything went smoothly except that I could not creat a database at all. When I installed, my harddisk has a free space of 1.98Gb and the RAM of more than 110Mb free. After I installed the OraPE8i there is stll a 1.15Gb free space in my harddisk. When I create a database, it does displays the screen with the message "create database in progress". But it does not do anything and it does not create any database. Thinking that the computer may take a lot of time to create a database, I even let it run for more than 4 days non-stop. So far no luck. What could I have done wrong? Please help to solve this problem. The OraclePE8i installtion guide mentioned the I will need to install a Posix standard Unix shell package on NT. A Unix shell will be needed to bulkload ldif data into Oracle Internet directory. Possible packages to use are: Cygnus (open source): - http://www.cygnus.com/cygwin/ or MKS Toolkit (commercially available): - http://www.datafocus.com/ I visted the site - http://www.cygnus.com/cygwin/ , but I could not determine which file to download PLEASE HELP ME. Thank you. Greetings, Dev __________________________________________________ Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
