Database Configuration Assistant

[CrystalVis]

I just installed a copy of Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 on Windows 2K Pro. However when it went through the Database configuration assistant, it gave me this error:

Database Configuration Assistant: Error
invalid entry size (expected 41951232 but got 419512230 bytes)

I finished the installation of everything else and tried to start the Database Configuration Assistant again, the status bar indicated 19% complete and it ended up giving me the same error. Does anyone experience this problem? Your help/suggestion is greatly appreciated.
TIA

You are trying to use some parameters with wrong values.

List all field values you entered step-by-step and maybe it is possible for us to help you. Regards

Looks like your software is corrupted. Try to install again with the original CD.

Thank you all for your response. I use Database Configuration Assistant to create a database, it doesn't require for me to enter any values. Although, you probably able to change the values of the parameters. I did not change anything. I accept all default values. I did not write a script to create a database. Any other ideas?

Thanks

Hi

It does not sound as a corrupt software installation, but I have no ideas - you do of cause have lots of free disk space?

It's a brand new machine. Pent IV, 512 RAM, 60gig hardrive. I can't imagine this is isn't enough to run Ora9i. I saw others posted at the Oracle sites with the same problem. But no one seems to have a solution.

Sorry, have you any solution of that problem ?
I have the same problem, but after reinstallation
(and first time it was OK).
Thanks before,

Thanks, but if somebody knows about MY problem,
please, tell me. I have not Petium IV. But I have
the same message : "Error invalid entry size
(expected 41951232 but got ....... bytes).
The first number is the same,
the second number is different.
