What Do Riverboats Look Like

from when the button 'Finish' the Oracle Database Configuration Asistant (dbca) in 11g does not work


a couple of days ago I was asked to change a database that was mounted on a lap Windows XP and Server 11g on Solaris 10 and the same motor (11g), work for no more than half a day, "I said. Well, I stopped doing export in the lap and began to transfer the installation and patches to the server. I configured the Solaris environment, picked up the X environment on my machine with Cygwin and ran the graphical installation (dbca), I took my time to configure everything required and after I got to the last screen and press the 'Finish' I realize that does not appear nothing, wondering if I had done something missing -which is not possible but can not move, I naively went back to check every screen and everything was in order (as expected).






I closed the installer and re-launched with the hope that this time if it worked but it was not. I threw it a third time but this time I paid attention to every detail, track or error message, with the following first observed
$ dbca
Warning: Can not convert string "-monotype-arial-regular-r-normal - *- 140 *- -*-*- p-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct

A notice no error message itself could be the casusante of such behavior? See log file says
[ORACLE_BASE] / cfgtoollogs / dbca / \u0026lt;dbname> / trace.log

which basically tells you that the problem is with your X client (Cygwin in my case) and I suggest you try with another client X or VNC.

X Will changing environment on your machine just because a small button does not continue with the creation of the base? Not justified, I believe, and the VNC option because it is not because I am not who runs the server.
Option 2, create the database with dbca

using the "silent" mode. Before using the option 2 is necessary to create a template -Not having to specify variable variable in the command line, with the same

dbca. Run the wizard configures everything at the last screen and select "Save as a Database Template" press the button 'Finish' and ready.

From command line run $ dbca-silent-createDatabase-TemplateName
testdb.dbc
-gdbName testdb testdb-sid-sysPassword syspass-systemPassword systempass-LOCAL-dbsnmpPassword emConfiguration dbsnmppass-sysmanPassword sysmanpass

Ready, set base and ready to launch the import-night-morning on the server with the dmp file generated in the lap. Of course it was no longer at noon as planned, but experience counts for future occasions. The Metalink note I put up, mentioned that this behavior may also occur in versions 10g 10.2.0.4 and 10.2.0.1 to any platform.
