Disco Viewer/+/Admin/Desktop errors out with Invalid Username and Password

Hi All,
We have set up a demo environment at work to upgrade to R12 with Vision database. Discoverer Admin is patched to this level: 10.1.2.2 (Path#4960210) with EBS patch 5985072. The iAS on linux box which is running Discoverer server is patched with same 10.1.2.2 as well. So client and server are at the same level. I followed Note 373634.1 - Using Discoverer 10.1.2 with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 to integrate Discoverer 10.1.2 with E-Business Suite Release 12 and copied over vis.dbc file to the client (C:\oracle\BIToolHome_01\secure) and also copied the same file to $BI_ORACLE_HOME/discoverer/secure folders. So far so good. I can connect to disco plus/admin/desktop using sysadmin or any other users shipped out of box with R12 VIS instance. A default apps EUL_US exist with some business area and workbooks. I can run them without any issues.
My problem is any FND users that I create cannot login via Plus/desktop/admin. I get the error username/password is invalid. I can login with this newly created user to apps no problem. I can see this user in discoverer when logged in as SYSADMIN and I granted all the privileges(admin as well) necessary. Also, any user shipped in VIS instance if updated (password changed or responsibility added) stops working and throws the same error.
What could be going wrong ?
I did look at this thread and have done all that is suggested by Michael and Rod west.
Discoverer Plus Login Failed
Thanks
Bismi

Hi,
Check whether there are any signon system profile options set. For example, case sensitive passwords set in the system profiles can cause a problem because Discoverer does not support them.
Also try doing a connection trace on Discoverer Desktop to see how far the connection attempt progresses. Follow Metalink Note 329898.1 for instructions.

*$ sqlplus /nolog*
SQL Plus Release: 11.2.0.1...
SQL>conn sys/password@orcl as sysdba;
ERROR:
ORA-01017: Invalid username and password; logon denied
then i issued the below commands ans realised that DB is not started.
SQL> SELECT FROM DUAL*
SP2:0640 NOT CONNECTED.
SQL> Startup;
ORA-03135: Connection lost contact.
But I am able to login to DB as sys with out providing instance name(orcl in this case)
*$ sqlplus /nolog*
SQL Plus Release: 11.2.0.1...
SQL>conn sys/password as sysdba;
Can someone let me know how to set password for sys user for orcl instance.

try to connect as
$export ORACLE_SID=orcl
$sqlplus / as sysdba
Even then if you are not able to login.

Report erroring out with 'Invalid parameter requested' in Siebel.

Hello -
I have 9 parameters on a template, excluding the two delivered out-of-the-box by siebel to enter the Language and Locale. Recently, if i enter a language value of 'ESP' ( or any other language value), it errors out with 'Invalid parameters requested' error. On reviewing the OC4j log file, i noticed that the language parameter ('ESP') is actually being applied to another parameter in my template that accespts only 'Yes/No' boolean values. This occurs randomly, there is no particular pattern to this.

3. Make sure Date and Time is correctly set; Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
4. Make sure Push Notification is enabled

When I launch Firefox 4.0.1 I get an error message that says "We noticed your may have signed inor signed out in another window. Click Ok to reload your page." I have to sign in with my username and password. Richard

When I launch Firefox 4.0.1 I get an error message that says "We noticed your may have signed inor signed out in another window. Click Ok to reload your page." I deleted Firefox and reloaded it - did not solve the problem. This started occurring after I downloaded Windows Service Pack 2. I have Vista 7 OS. So every time I close and relaunch Firefox, I have to sign in with my username and password. Very very, annoying. If I can't get this corrected, I have to start using another Browser. Thanks for your help. Richard

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

Oracle Discoverer 4i - Invalid username and password

Hi,
I have 2 machines, both installed with Oracle Discoverer 4i with patches, 3201601, 2451630, 3622870.
When I run the Desktop Discoverer and attempt to log in, one machine prompts the error Invalid username and password while the other does not.
Can someone help me troubleshoot why this error occurs? It will be big help.
Thanks!

Are you trying to connect to the same database from both Discoverer machines ? Are the OS versions on those two machines identical ? Pl post the exact error code/message ?

Invalid Username and Password on 10.7 SMB shares

Getting "Invalid Username and Password" message when connecting to SMB shares hosted off a Mac OS 10.7 Lion machine from Snow Leopard or other OSes? Even though you know you are using the correct username and password? With the new SMB in OS X 10.7 Lion you now have to specify the name of the computer your connecting to IN the username field of the prompt or else it won't connect. Kind of like Windows. Took me a while to figure this out so I figured I'd post this here.
i.e.
instead of:
Use:

Thanks for all of your advices. I want to say:
1. I just created this new database yesterday and created SYS password during database creation from another clinet machine in my office. All connections are working. This is why I don't want to change the password at this moment. If I re-create password file, will this affect another client machine in office to connect to DB as sysdba?
2. From server, I can connect. I used the same sys/syspassword as sysdba. If the password is wrong, I would not be able to connect from server.
3. When I tried to connect from remote client machine, I do connect with string like: SQL:> conn sys/syspassword@mydb as sysdba. But it didn't work and return ORA-01017 error.
4. I have other 4 databases on different servers. I can connect from the same remote client machine through SQLPLUS and TOAD with sys as sysdba and system.
Please advise more. Thanks.

01017 invalid username and password in toad

Hi,
I am getting '01017-invalid username and password logon denied' error when connecting via toad. but with same userid and password, I am able to connect via sql plus. Pleaase let me know how to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Abirami

Hi again,
Did I understand correctly the following :
1) The database you are trying to access is in fact a clone of the production database and it is in the clone database that you get the error ?
Yes facing the error in clone database only.
2) When you said the user/password worked fine the previous day I assume you mean it worked fine on the source database , not on the clone database ?
It was the clone only (Not the production)
3) So, in fact you have never been able to access the clone database with this userid ?
The user id were able to login yesterday and not today(This the cloned one)
4) I also assume that the original user still works fine when accessing the source database ?
Yes
If I have understood correctly all these things then I think we need to understand the cloning process. How exactly do you clone the database ?
1. Taken the control file trace and shutdown the source db.
2. Copied the cold backup from target to source destination.
3. moved the controlfile to other location (in source).
4. started with
startup nomount (source)
i have run the script that was taken trace( I have done crosschecking of all datafiles with production for your information)
create controlfile set database <name> resetlogs noarchivelog
controlfile got created
alter database open resetlogs.
thats it.

Invalid username and password combination woes

Before I do what I think I am supposed to do... I wanted to run this by you guys first to make sure incase someone found a way. I wish i didn't have to do this but...
I have a Mac on our domain running 10.6.6. It had a seizure of some kind and i was forced to cold boot it. We got it back up and running and to the login screen, but when we tried logging in to it, the login in screen just shook. No matter what AD account i tried logging in with, SHAKE! SHAKE! SHAKE The next thing i decided to do was unbind and rebind the Mac thinking maybe it had something to do with that. NO GOOD. Not only did I get an error that the Mac could not unbind from our domain, but now, no matter what account i use to try and rebind the mac, I get the dreaded: invalid username and password combination error. WHEN I KNOW THAT'S NOT THE CASE!
Anyone know how to fix this OTHER THAN downgrading to a version of 10.6.x that CAN bind? If that's even a option???
Thanks!

Why is that always any Apple support person or Mac users answer? It's a Microsoft problem. How can it be, I have 20 macs connected to the same network. The mac having the problem has been successfully working for 3 months. It started shaking when the user came in and in the troubleshooting process we removed it and are trying to rejoin it backl on to a domain it has been working on for months and 19 other machines are still working on. How is this a microsoft problem? Please enlightne me? If it sounds like I am frustrated, I apologize, but I AM!

Check with your sysadmin. They may have setup a Server ID, which you will need to introduce to your database definition to complete the signon process.

For the 1st time I am trying to send an iphoto by e-mail but get the error message " combination of username and password not recognised by the server" I use Sky Mail ( yahoo mail) and input the same username and password that I access Sky Mail - have retried many times. Predictably the Sky help desk have no idea. Can anyone help please?

I regret that you're having trouble setting up your email, corbad! You're on the right track with your incoming email address. You might also try incoming.verizon.net or incoming.yahoo.verizon.net as possible alternatives, and 995 as the port number. Please let me know how that goes!

My firefox on my lap top (with windows 7) cannot open a website with a username and password, without first clearing the history ? my other computer has windows xp and it works fine.

My firefox on my lap top (with windows 7) cannot login to my e mail website with a username and password, without first clearing the history ? my other computer has windows xp and it works fine.

I simply reinstalled fire fox 3.6.19 and I can login no problem. Seems like it could be a compatability problem between 5.0 and windows 7. One other thing that happened often was lag while playing mmorpg games. Not sure if this fixed it or not, but I can update this thread when i find out.
Thank you to who ever provided the link to the older fire fox downloads page in another question thread.

Lately I have been getting a rectangular screen titled Login Setting, with my Username and Password and asking me to Login. This screen shows up on opening the computer and has never been seen before the last month or so.

Lately I have been getting a rectangular screen titled Login Setting, with my Username and Password and asking me to Login. This screen shows up on opening the computer and has never been seen before the last month or so. It has one box titled Login Credentials with a username and password field and a second box titled Login Status at the bottom where it says "Profile not found" in red. I've never seen this before and ignoring it does not effect any operations. Is this legitimate or some kind of identity fishing?

In order to avoid detection, the installer will first look for the presence of some antivirus tools and other utilities that might be present on a power user's system, which according to F-Secure include the following:

/Applications/VirusBarrier X6.app
/Applications/iAntiVirus/iAntiVirus.app
/Applications/avast!.app

If these tools are found, then the malware deletes itself in an attempt to prevent detection by those who have the means and capability to do so. Many malware programs use this behavior, as was seen in others such as the Tsunami malware bot.

Why can't I access my credit union account anymore on my laptop? I enter username and password and it says invalid username and password!

The trouble opening my credit union account just started yesterday and it was usable the day before. I enter my username and password and the next window tries to open my account but ends up on a page that reads invalid username and password! What has happened to my settings? Can anyone relate or help me?

My first approach would be to see if your credit union changed their web site. If nothing has changed on your computer then it must be at their end. If they say they have changed nothing then you can start looking at your computer settings.
One small worrying item. How did you come to try to log into them? Never use a link in an unsolicited e-mail telling you to log in. Those often go to bogus sites trying to steal your identity that are almost perfect imitations of the real site, and will, of course, not actually log you into the real site. I always check web addresses in my browser's status bar.
