Symptoms

The DBCA is used to generate the scripts for database creation.

After the summary screen when the <finish>  button is used,  the pop-up screen with the progress bar is not shown.

Only two files files are created :
<instance_name>.com
<instance_name>.sql

These files are incomplete.

The <instance_name>.sql has as content:
---
set verify off
PROMPT specify a password for sys as parameter 1;
DEFINE sysPassword = &1
PROMPT specify a password for system as parameter 2;
DEFINE systemPassword = &2
---

A DBCA debug trace (after setting logical DBCA_DEBUG) ends with:

.../...

[TaskScheduler timer] [12:51:12:134] [Host.setUpForOperation:-1] setUpForOperation: Mode = 2
