Account unlock needed

I've just installed 10.2.0.1.0 on my home computer, just to learn oracle. Upon using the SQL*Plus logon window, I mistakenly forgot to use my password from install, & I tried others, so now the account for username SYSTEM is locked. Yes, I now know it locks after 10 attempts. I'm not in a production environment. Essentially, I can't get to the sql> screen to unlock the account using
ALTER user SYSTEM account UNLOCK.
What can I do to unlock the SYSTEM user? Thanks for your help!
Not sure what forum to put this in.

It actually belongs in 'Database - General', but that's OK ... at least you got the right category.
I assume you are using Windows ...
<rant>
... since you don't provide the operating system - I have noticed that windows users don't seem to realize there are others (or even other versions) and assume that there is no difference ... a bit like saying 'I need repairs for my Ford' without specifying whether it's a truck or car, never mind getting into model
</rant>
So ... open a command box and type in
sqlplus / as sysdbaand when it's logged in, enter
alter user system identified by new_password account unlock;
exitand then try
sqlplus system/new_password

    If you've tried to buy something and your've been charged for it (and it's not a temporary store holding charge) but haven't received it then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

  • How do i get my account unlocked and get new security questions

    how do i get my account unlocked and get new security questions?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • AD account unlock

    Hi,
    We want to provide AD account unlock as self service to user.
    User shall unlock AD account after providing answers to secret questions. (just same as forget password)
    Please let me know if anyone have achieved this earlier.
    Thanks

    If you do decide to develop a custom UI to handle this, ensure that you check the user account has not been administratively disabled before allowing an unlock and a password reset. You should check the bits of the userAccountControl to ensure that the account is only locked.
    The custom UI piece is relatively easy to develop. The best way is as follows:
    1. Create a custom adapter and process task which checks the account to ensure it is only locked. This task should also generate a one time random password, and flag the account to force password change at next login (I will explain why later)
    2. Create the custom UI jsp pages to prompt for userid, then validate challenge questions. Upon successful validation, your page should invoke the api to insert your custom task in the process, and return the one time password back to the page
    The reason why you need to generate a temporary password is because you still need to enforce password history. Because you have no visibility to the last X passwords, you will need to generate one. This will prevent users from using this mechanism to reset the password to a previously used one.
    Or alternatively you could use the eSSO PR module. But that is an additional license cost.

    I'd love to make sure your account is taken care of! While our 4G devices are unlocked for global use already, we do need to take care of a few things to suspend your account for military deployment. Can you please reply to the Direct Message I sent you?

  • I have two iPhones on my apple account and need to remove one how do I do this? Thanks

    I have two iPhones on my apple account and need to remove one how do I do this? Thanks

    If you are using two iPhones on the same Apple Account by using the same Apple ID you can remove one by following the following:
    Choose Settings > Store and tap Sign out
    The apps and such should remain. If you want to clear all of that you can do the following:
    The Erase all Content and Settings feature under Settings/General/Reset will remove your content and settings.

    The seller needs to follow this procedure:

    If she refuses, then as Tim suggested the iPhone is probably stolen. You'll need to contact your local police department and ask how to proceed.

  • How can I change my iCloud email account? My apple ID was correctly changed but my @me account and @icloud account addresses need updated to reflect my married name.

    My apple ID was correctly changed but my @me account and @icloud account addresses need updated to reflect my married name.

    I tried that without any luck. I was hoping I could get Apple to reset it for me or delete the account so I could recreate it or at least tell me what is listed as my birth date, the security question answer.

  • HT3702 I am unable to add my bank/card details in my apple account, every time i am getting a message that it has been declined. kindly help me in authorise my bank card in my apple account i need to purchase few apps, pls help me

    Hi,
    I am unable to add my bank/card details in my apple account, every time i am getting a message that it has been declined. kindly help me in authorise my bank card in my apple account i need to purchase few apps, pls help me

    What sort of card are you trying to use ? If it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined
    If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

  • FM account assignments need to be assigned for each grantee year

    Hi experts!!
    I have a problem when i execute GM_REVAL (Revaluation of Currency for Grants Management). System gets an errror: FM account assignments need to be assigned for each grantee year (Message no. GRANTMGMT363).
    I've customized FMDERIVE in order to derive Fund center, commitment item, grant and fund. And GMDERIVE to derive Sponsor Program and Sponsor class. In a FI postings (FB01 or FBCJ), these derivations works ok.
    Anyone knows how can i solve this error?
    Thank you.

    Hello Dolors,
    for the revaluation you need to maintain default FM settings in the
    customizing. See IMG - GM - master data - revaluation. Note that these
    FM master data objects must be valid throughout the budget validity
    period.
    I hope this helps..
    Best regards,

  • 10g Database SYSTEM user account unlock

    I wish to permanently unlock my SYSTEM user account. I have tried:
    alter user SYSTEM identified by xxx account unlock;
    After running the command I can logon successfully one time to the SYSTEM account then it is automatically locked again. The next time I try to logon I have to unlock the account again.
    How can I make the unlock permanent?

    1. Modify the password used by oraperf.dll
    The 10g Windows documentation informs customers to run a tool called operfcfg to change the password.
    To set the system password, enter the following: operfcfg.exe -U SYSTEM -P password -D TNS_ALIAS_FOR_DDATATBASE
    See Oracle Database Installation for Windows 10g guide, section 4: Configuring Oracle Components; Configuring Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor
    or
    2. Disable oraperf.dll
    NOTE: This step should only be performed by knowledgable Windows System Administrator's:
    To disable the oraperf.dll, modify the following key in the registry. HKeyLocalMachine\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Oracle10\Performance. Change the value for Library to "notthere_oraperf.dll" from "oraperf.dll".
