That would definitely be the next thing I would suggest. I have had to sometimes set the Remote Database option to Yes even when the database is installed locally.

I'm guessing it knows where the bin directory is anyway because it asks for: What is the ORACLE home directory? [/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.3/OracleAS_1] Here's what did work though. Since I could connect to the database remotely, I just ran it like it was remote and answered Y to the question: "Is the ORACLE database on a remote machine?" I haven't tested anything yet, but this way the install at least appeared to finish, created the tablespaces, etc. James _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
