Hi, I am trying to install Oracle BISE1 on a virtual machine having a Win Server 2003 (32 bit) OS. In the last step...I got stuck with the installation of Configuration Assistant and the error which I got was: Command = C:\oracle\bise1\db\install\bise1config.bat has failed Execution Error : BISE1 Configuration Assistant failed java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBE rror.java:189) at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBE rror.java:231) at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBE rror.java:345) at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection.<init>(Orac leConnection.java:428) at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.getConnectionInsta nce(OracleDriver.java:515) at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.connect(OracleDriv er.java:345) at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager .java:512) at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager .java:171) at oracle.as.config.bise1.util.DBUtils.getConnection(DBU tils.java:18) at oracle.as.config.bise1.action.UnlockAccounts.execute( UnlockAccounts.java:35) at oracle.as.config.bise1.BISE1ConfigAssistant.main(BISE 1ConfigAssistant.java:76) Then in one of the similar previous post I read that this problem could be solved by giving administrative privileges to the file "E:\oracle\bise1b\db\install\bise1config.bat" [Previous Post for the same problem - http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa? thread ID=955418&tstart=60 ] I did that and hit the retry button. But this time I am getting a different error as follows :The Oracle system identifier(SID) "bise1db" already exists. Specify another SID I guess this is my 4-5 attempt in the last one month. I have been unsuccessful in all my attempts so far. Kindly help at the earliest. Thanks.
