If you close all the gui applications, is there a jre or jrew process still running? You might try killing those completely (that may cause your oracle management server to abort and it will have to be restarted manually) and then restarting DBCA. I don't know about DBCA, but I've seen similar problems with the other Oracle GUIs and the java runtime environment.

The hourglass comes up and then just disappears. It has worked in the past. It throws no error messages, no trace files, writes nothing to the alert log. I have 2 instances on this NT4.0 box and everything appears to be just fine with them and the users. I am running 8i 8.1.6.0.0. Does anybody have any idea why it would not start?
