I think the logic is wrong. You could build the fact table first and then add lookup tables and the constraints. You have to know your data and order it by hand. Yechiel Adar Mehish - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December

It is true that you need to check your kernel parameters before installing and creating databases. Read the readme's and install docs completely first. Also as you have done search metalink for installation on HUPX 64 bit. Once the parameters are set, installation and db creation goes along quit
