Starting over...
I've been trying to install v. 8.1.7 on slackware, but for various reasons need to start over. However, whenever I do anything requiring svrmgrl, such as run a script to create the first database I get the ORA-03113 error:
./sqlora8.sh
Oracle Server Manager Release 3.1.7.0.0 - Production
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
SVRMGR> SVRMGR> Password:

ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
SVRMGR> LCC-00161: Message 161 not found; product=SVRMGR; facility=MGR
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
SVRMGR> 2> 3> 4> 5> 6> 7> 8> 9> 10> CREATE DATABASE "ora8"
*
ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE
SVRMGR> ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
I thought I'd removed the old installation, but there still seems to be a few things hanging around that are causing problems.
So I guess my question is how to TOTALLY remove all traces of Oracle so I can start over with a clean install?
Thanks,
Michael
