SID already exists. Specify another SID.

Hello,
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:
The Oracle system identifier(SID) "bise1db" already exists.
Specify another SID
Please help me resolve this error.
Thanks.

Hi,

New FaceTime account won't allow old email to be added "already exists on another account"

Since I was having difficulty getting Facetime to work, I set up a whole new Apple ID account. I used a gmail address, because the system kept telling me my regular email was already connected to a different account (which the "fill in the blank" Apple search could not seem to locate). Any idea how I can get my regular email removed from the old account so I can use it again?
I'm not sure if this problem is really clear, so I'll try to explain it another way. A friend has me set up to connect via Facetime using my present email which is through cableone. However, evidently when I set up my original Apple ID, I used an email that no longer exists. So I tried to locate all that account information, and when I was unsuccessful, I went ahead and created a whole new Apple ID. I had to use my gmail account address because my cableone address is somehow connected to the older Apple ID. I'm wondering if there is a way to "disconnect" my cableone address from the older ID so I can use it again.

Same thing here. I am getting the authorization message with iPad, 2 iPods and 3 iPhones. I'm furious about this. I reviewed my itunes account info and everything looks accurate. I downloaded a movie this morning and I can't sync it to iPad. Let's see what explanation is offered.

Can't sync Movie Rental to Iphone already exists on another device?

I have rented two movies and have not touched them. I tried moving one over today to syn with my iphone so we could watch and I received the followin "Rentals in your itunes library could not be transferred to the iphone "_____'s phone" because it has already been trasnferred to another computer or device" I have not connected to any other computer or device so I am a little confused any suggestions would be helpful.

sorry, but has anyone any thoughts on this?

Create table with name already existed

FCPX Missing Event "Event Name Already Exists"

I imported some footage into FCPX in a new event. When I went back into Final Cut, the event was missing. I've searched through as much of my computer as possible (from typing in the event name and file numbers in Finder to digging through folders) and it is NOWHERE. The footage only exists on my computer so I'm in a bit of a bind. Last night I finally accepted that it was gone, so I tried to upload the footage that I do still have. When I typed in the new event name, a box popped up that said ""Blabla" already exists" Choose another name"..... So the event does exist somewhere on my computer I just have absolutely no idea where it has gone or where to find it. It's not in any of the Final Cut Backups that I have.

I'm trying really hard to not freak out right now, but I literally just lost 4 hours of work on an edit and I can't find it.
First of all, I started a project and worked for 4 hours straight, from start to finish. I went to export the project XML and it froze. I waited like 3 minutes and then had to force quit. I opened it like 4 more times and had to keep force quitting bcuz it wasn't responding. I restarted my mac and when I opened FPCX it didn't freeze but my work was gone. But not all of it. Literally the first two clips of the edit and thats it. I checked the backups and it didn't seem to make them. I went to restart the edit, and when I went to create a new event (with the same name as before), it said it existed.
I'm hoping you could tell me if there is any way I can get my project back. Where might these "created events" be if they aren't showing up in FPCX. I search bared my finder and they don't show up?

Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID

Hi,
I had Oracle 9idatabase installed on my system.I had to reinstall the Windows 2000 operating system on my computer. I used the Oracle 9i cd to deinstall evrything ,but when i try reinstalling it, i specify 'Oracle 9i' as SID and i get the message 'Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID'.
What do i do? Can anyone guide me?
Thanks in advance

1/ Could you tell me more about Windows 2000 OS was installed clearly or repaired? If the Windows 2000 OS was repaired, then I think that, you should reinstall only Oracle Database (by Database Configure Assitant or Oracle Universal Installer) but not completely install full of Oracle Server.
2/ I guessed your DB was Development Database, not Production Database. So, when you reinstall your Database, you might save it as template (structure). Good luck!

Installatiion error message :Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID

Hi all,
I had Oracle 9idatabase installed on my system.I had to reinstall the Windows 2000 operating system on my computer. I used the Oracle 9i cd to deinstall evrything ,but when i try reinstalling it, i specify 'Oracle 9i' as SID and i get the message 'Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID'.
What do i do? Can anyone guide me?
Thanks in advance,

Yes, probably You're trying to reinstall the same database / sample database.
This should be the message that You receive when Oradim utility try to create a NEW sid as a service.
To remove the old one, look at the services list. You should find a service called OracleService<NAME>. The <NAME> part of the service is Your SID.
Then, from command prompt, positioned in $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory, if not in the path, issue the follwing command:
oradim - DELETE -SID <NAME>
This should remove the service. If I'm right, in some versions of W2K server, I've found that it was impossible to recreate the SID with the same name without a reboot of the server.
May be this is Your problem
Hope this helps

DBCA Error: specify another sid

I deleted a database on my system manually (without dbca). Now i want to create a new database with the same SID, but dbca always give me an error, that the specified SID is already existing. I deleted all datafiles and the whole filestructure. I think I have to manually remove an entry from any file which is checked by dbca. But where can I find this file?
Choose another SID for the new db is not possible.
OS is SLES10
I hope someone can help me.

since you deleted it by hand, the oratab file wasn't updated. the SID for the DB must still be there. you'll probably have to edit it / remove the entry
I think it's at /etc/oratab

Install Error: SID already exists

Hello,
I uninstalled 9i whose SID is, say, BLNG. Now I am installing 10gR2 and I'd like to use the same SID name. But install says:
The SID you have specified already exists on this machine. Please specify a different SID.
I need to use the same SID. How do I get install to accept a previously used SID? Which files / registry entries do I need to change or delete.
Thanks,

It is much safer/better to drop a database before you uninstall Oracle software.
Now that you have uninstalled without dropping you need to clean every single trace manually since the uninstall was not legal or complete.
Before following these steps backup your PC and registry
1- start your PC in safe mode, delete the parent Oracle folder from your drive.
2- Restart in Normal mode.
3- Open the registry using regedit.exe from start/run/
4- delete from the registry the following entries/keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM
Controlset001/services/%oracle_services%
Controlset002/services/%oracle_services%
Now you need clean the legacy entries from your registry.
If your OS is not Win XP you need to use regedt32.exe. If Win XP then use the regedit.exe.
To remove the legacy entries you have to be the Administrator and change the security on the legacy keys so you can delete it.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/SYSTEM/Controlset001/ENUM/Root/Legacy%Oracle_services%
and the same for Controllset002.
I suggest youd be VERY CAREFUL with the registry, one single mistake and bye-bye Windows.
and also drop the database with dbca before you uninstall the software, and use oradim to remove the services.
Hope this helps
Tony Garabedian
If you have other Oracle products installed on you machine, make sure you delete only the uninstalled database entries/keys from the registry.

SID Already Exists

I was installing oracle 10G on Windows XP SP2 machine and the machine hanged during installation. After that i unstalled all the oracle products from OUI and deleted all the registry entries which i could. After doing all the above steps now when i again tries to install oracle, it shows an error "The SID already exists" i.e. for orcl.
So, how can i re-install (not fully prior install) oracle 10G.
Thanks

If the SID already exists it's because deleting from the registry was not successful. You could delete an instance registration directly from the registry, however a better and safer approach would be by means of the oradim command.
There is no need to fully install your software, as this is an specific database instance issue. II suggest you to perform a software only install. Next delete, if you find an instance, using oradim. Next command the database creation using dbca.

SID Already Exist During Creating Database

Hi,
I've just installed oracle software on AIX 5.3
- I've installed the software only.
- Then, I tried to create database, but I've got an error message that "SID is already exist". Its the first oracle SID I create but I've got this error message, but maybe the error message due to failed installation of oracle for couple of times or I did "export ORACLE_SID=..." before creating database.
I want to create database with the same SID... Whatch should I do...
Regards,
Ala'

Regards,
Ala'You can't create two databases with the same SID in one host
If you don't need the first database, you can drop it
If you don't have the database (you dropped it or etc.) but Oracle still claims that you have, then clear the line from /etc/oratab file which indicates information about that database

There is definitely more amusing endeavours in this world, than trying to understand why an SQL Server install failed. The log files are verbose - but somehow the real information about what went wrong seems to be hiding. Never have proverb about not being
able to see the forest for all the trees felt more appropriate.
Nevertheless, this is where things go sour:

What account? I supposed you have already asked yourself that and just shaken your head.
But there is another error code 2203, NET HELPMSG 2203 says "The password parameter is invalid." And I note that the source is apparently on a share.
So where is my guess: the MSI installer - which runs as a service, somehow does not have permissions to read the installation from the share. Or is trying to log on to the share with your username/password? No, I don't know, I am just speculating widely.
But my advice would be to copy the installation directory from the share to a local disk.
Maybe that CryptAcquireContext is significant as well - I don't know.
Oh, wait, here is something just before the section above in the log:
MSI (s) (F4:EC) [09:04:15:729]: Note: 1: 2205 2: 3: Environment
MSI (s) (F4:EC) [09:04:15:729]: Note: 1: 2228 2: 3: Environment 4: SELECT `Name`,`Value` FROM `Environment`,`Component` WHERE `Component_`=`Component` AND (`Component`.`Action` = 1 OR `Component`.`Action` = 2)
Action start 9:04:15: WriteEnvironmentStrings.
2205 is "The logon processor did not add the message alias." I see that in a successful log that I have, so that is probably benign. But 2228 seems to be
"There are too many names in the user accounts database."
Exactly what that means, I have no clue, but it could be a Windows problem.

I get an error message when trying to sign into the support community with another Apple id. On the pick a username screen I get "an account utilizing this address already exists...." despite trying a few usernames. Anyone know how I can resolve this?

I get an error message when trying to sign into the support community with another Apple id. On the <pick a username> screen I get "an account utilizing this address already exists.Only one account per email address is allowed on the Apple Support Communities" despite trying a few usernames. Anyone know how I can resolve this?

This problem has been driving me demented. The instructions that Ivan gives have partially worked for me. By following his link
"How to find out if you have multiple Apple IDs" I was able to identify that yes I did have two apple accounts using the same e mail address. One was very old that I used to use for the forum boards and one is my much more recent ID that I use for everything these days. So I changed the e mail address for the old account which is associated with these discussion boards and that's the account that I am now posting this from. However even though the two accounts now have different e mail addresses when I try to log onto the boards with my more recent main apple ID I still get all the same errors as described at the start of this thread by rodgers_j. And of course that's the one I want to use so that I only have one itunes account for everything.
So if anyone has any more hints I'd be very grateful.

SID already exists. Specify another SID.
