Hi all,

I have oracle9i_1 installed on a solaris8 sparc machine but i'm having problems creating a db with dbca.
The scripts are generated without a problem but each time when I select &quot;finish&quot; it pops up a message saying that / (root) doesn't have enough free space, but i specified the file location to be in the /data/oracle/<sid> path.
In the script I have specified all the paths using the absolute paths instead of the variables (ora_home,...)
The file location variables box shows the correct locations for each setting, but to no avail, it insists in installing the db in the root folder no matter what I try.
Any help is greatly appriciated and most certainly welcome :)
Obviously it *must* be an environment setting, but which one causes it to behave like this ?

Thanks
 
instead of &quot;create database now&quot; option during the dbassist process,

take the &quot;save information to shell script&quot; option

then check the scripts.

Hi,

Did that but it all pointed to the /data/oracle location.
Took all env settings from another machine and placed them in .profile.
Works ok now :)
