I'm getting the infamous ora 12154 - TNS could not resolve connect
identifier error.
My computer is running windows 2000 pro in standalone mode (not connected to
a network).
I used the oracle 10g install program to install the software without the
database
and everything went fine.
I then used the assistants to set the parameters for the listener etc.
Next I attempted to install a database (using the database configuration
assistant) called test using the default values.
during the copying database phase I got the following error messages:

ora 12154 - TNS could not resolve connect identifier.
ora 01031 - insufficient privileges

Thanks in advance for any assistance in resolving this.

My configuration files are listed below:

hosts file:
127.0.0.1 localhost
10.10.10.10 mycomputer.com # loopBack for oracle

Installed a Microsoft loopback adaptor with a network address of 10.10.10.10
submask: 255.255.255.0

The loopback is configured with tcip, and set as the first connection in the
list of connections.
