CREATE DATABASE error on oracle-express

456214Dec 22 2005 — edited Dec 22 2005
Hi,

I use SQLPLUS to try to "CREATE DATABASE" with the commands below. Any
idea about the error?

SQL> CONNECT / AS sysdba
Connected.
SQL> shutdown
ORA-01507: database not mounted

ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> STARTUP NOMOUNT
ORACLE instance started.

Variable Size 62916960 bytes
Database Buffers 79691776 bytes
Redo Buffers 2973696 bytes
SQL> CREATE DATABASE test;
CREATE DATABASE test
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01501: CREATE DATABASE failed
ORA-01504: database name 'TEST' does not match parameter db_name 'XE'


TIA
