I am having problem with starting up the oracle service. When I click on start oracle 9i database from the start->programs->oracle->database administration menu, I get a dialog box asking for the password. I have tried several passwords from internal,change_on_install, etc., but it doesn't seem to respond. Could anyone let me know what the default password is for starting the oracle 9i database. I greatly appreciate it.
My system is windows 98 second edition. The steps I already completed were
1. create the init<sid>.ora
2. start oradim -new -sid<sid> -intpwd<password>
3. set OS environment(oralce_sid,etc.,)
The fourth step is start sqlplus sys/change_on_install as sysdba. Here it displays the same dialog box that came when I started the oracle from start->programs->oracle->database administration. I don't know what the password is or the default is . Any help is greatly appreciated.
Please let me know.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I do not see a tnsnames.ora file created after installation of oracle 9i software alone. These are the steps I did.
1. Download oracle 9i from oracle website
2. Install only the oracle 9i software without creating a starter database so that I can create this manually.
3. From DOS c:> prompt, start oradim to create a new service. I gave the SID as orcl and password as orcl
4. In DOS c:> prompt, set any os variables explicitly like ORACLE_SID, etc.,
5. Then I type in SQLPLUS sys as sysdba
6. Enter Password was displayed. I entered orcl which I set in the step 3 when creating the service.
7. Then oracle service started and a GUI password screen was displayed. I entered orcl again but after three tries, I was disconnected and the error message, unable to connect to oracle after 3 tries comes.
Now I am not sure, if I am missing any steps like tnsnames.ora file creation, etc.,
I greatly appreciate if you have any suggestions.
Thanks
Deepak
