Hi,
I am trying to create a database manually. My requirement is to use the already existing controlfiles. So here i go showing the steps which i took.
1. I shutdown the database
2. I connect to sqlplus with sqlplus/nolog
3. Connect as sysdba with the command: sys/password as sysdba.
I get connected to an idle instance.
4. I start the instance with my pfile as:
startup nomount pfile='<My Location of pfile>'
The instance gets started. I am showing the pfile contents:

db_block_size=4096
db_cache_size=33554432

open_cursors=300

background_dump_dest=D:\oracle\admin\myDB\bdump
core_dump_dest=D:\oracle\admin\myDB\cdump
timed_statistics=TRUE
user_dump_dest=D:\oracle\admin\myDB\udump

db_domain=""
remote_login_passwordfile=EXCLUSIVE

control_files=("D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\CONTROL01.CTL", "D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\CONTROL02.CTL", "D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\CONTROL03.CTL")

dispatchers="(PROTOCOL=TCP)(SER=MODOSE)", "(PROTOCOL=TCP)(PRE=oracle.aurora.server.GiopServer)", "(PROTOCOL=TCP)(PRE=oracle.aurora.server.SGiopServer)"

compatible=9.0.0
db_name=myDB

instance_name=myDB

java_pool_size=33554432
large_pool_size=1048576
shared_pool_size=33554432

processes=150

fast_start_mttr_target=300

sort_area_size=524288

undo_management=AUTO
undo_tablespace=UNDOTBS

I accordingly create the directories beforehand as i have mentioned in the parameters(control_files,background_dump_dest etc)

The instance gets started.

5. Then i issue the CREATE DATABASE command as follows:

CREATE DATABASE myDB controlfile reuse
logfile
GROUP 1 ('D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\log_01_myDB.rdo') SIZE 15M,
GROUP 2 ('D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\log_02_myDB.rdo') SIZE 15M,
GROUP 3 ('D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\log_03_myDB.rdo') SIZE 15M
datafile 'D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\system_01_myDB.dbf' SIZE 100M
undo tablespace UNDO
datafile 'D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\undo_01_myDB.dbf' SIZE 40M
default temporary tablespace TEMP
tempfile 'D:\oracle\oradata\myDB\temp_01_myDB.dbf' SIZE 20M
extent management local uniform size 128k
character set AL32UTF8
national character set AL16UTF16
set time_zone = 'America/New_York';

The command runs for sometime and then throws the following error:

create database myDB controlfile reuse
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced

I noticed that all the controlfiles, logfiles and datafiles are created in the location, i specified.

I tried to google for the error above and found that its a generic error which can occur for a lot number of reasons. How do i understand for which reason i am getting the error. Any help will be appreciated.

Correct your undo_tablespace parameter.
In your create statement undo tablespace name is "UNDO" and in your parameter file it is "UNDOTBS".

Thanks for pointing out the error. I have corrected the same but i am still getting the same error. , i.e
create database myDB controlfile reuse
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced

What can be the error? Am i missing something out here?
(I still notice that all the controlfiles, logfiles and datafiles are created in the location, i specified.)

Use REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE=NONE during database creation then create a password file.

Thank you to all of you. I finally got my database created as i can see a final output of 'Database Created'. Smile
After this i exited from sqlplus. Now i try to connect to my newly created database (myDB) as system/manager@myDB. But i get the following error:
ERROR:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
I could understand that the tnsnames.ora file does not contains the entry for my new instance. So, i added an entry for the same as:

MYDB =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = india)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = myDB)
)
)

I did this as looking into the entry for my already working instance 'test'.
I try to connect again, but am getting the same error. Any suggestions/comments would be appreciated.

Give us what you did so your database created successfully just want your feedback.

I was making two mistakes which was pointed out in the forum. I rectified them and was successfull in creating the database.
The mistakes were:
1. The names for the UNDO tablespace were different in my parameter file (initmyDB.ora) and in the CREATE DATABASE statement.
2. The parameter REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE was set to EXCLUSIVE in the parameter file. I was adviced to change it to NONE during database creation.
Rectifying these mistakes worked for me.

Now, i tried to do a tnsping to MYDB, i.e tnsping MYDB and i get the following output:
