Oracle Database Discussions

Hi,

I have oracle 10.2.0.1 installed on a Solaris 10 SPARC box, and am trying to create a database. When I installed Oracle, I originally opted to create a new database, but when it got to the DBCA section, the installer seems to pause with the results stating it's "in progress...". I stopped the installer, and cancelled the install. On checking the logs, there were no errors, it just seems to stop (even if I leave it for 14+ hours) with the last lines of the log being:

INFO: Configuration assistant "Oracle Net Configuration Assistant" succeeded
INFO: Command = /export/home/oracle/product/10.2.0/Db_3/bin/dbca -progress_only

Then I installed Oracle without creating a db thinking I could create a database alone with DBCA. The installer completed successfully, but dbca isn't completing at all. It launches fine, I can progress through all the steps/panes no problems. When I get to the last pane to select db creation options, I have "Create Database" and "Generate Database Creation Scripts" checked, then I click Finish. A window opens with a summary, I click OK and that window closes. Then nothing happens. Nothing at all. No errors in the terminals, and I'm looking at the last pane of the DBCA as if it didn't do anything at all. I can uncheck the creation options and click Finish again, but I get no notification windows, and the app just seems to be open, but not doing anything. I can "Cancel" out of it though. No scripts directory is added either.

Any suggestions on how I can create a db??

Thanks!
