All scheduled jobs started suddenly to fail with ORA-01031: insufficient pr

I have a setup of gridcontrol 11g on windows 2008. I've been running successful for weeks until the other day when all my scheduled jobs started to fail with
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges (rman jobs)
ERROR: Invalid username and/or password (sql scripts).
I verified for the accounts being locked, pw correct, expired / grace period, etc.
all good when I try from the command line. running an rman backup from the command line works great, but the same one through the job scheduler fails with ORA-01031.
I've dropped the jobs completely, recreated them again. same thing.
I'm using preferred credentials and dropped and recreated them. same thing.
I don't know where else to look. Only grid control scheduled jobs fail, but all of them do.
I'm using SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) in my sql.ne (always have).
we use a windows domain server / domain authentication for logging into boxes. I haven't changed any of my passwords.
I am probably looking in the wrong places. Anybody able to help?

Hi,
ERROR: Invalid username and/or password (sql scripts).This error message clearly tells that password is incorrect and "insufficient privileges" shows that perhaps you are using SYS user for running the jobs and password for user SYS is incorrect.
If you are specifying passwords in your scripts, i don't think you need to set preferred credentials.
Try following
1) Remove preferred credentials
2) Don't check password of user sys by locally logging in (because if Os authentication is on, even wrong password will allow you loging into the database and you will think that password is correct). Try connecting database using SYS user from a remote machine and check whether it accepts your password and make sure you have same password for your jobs and in sql scripts
3) If still problem, just for test, remove SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) and try

Resolving problem with ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

hello i just to write a few word about my installation of oracle database 9i
My installation is on a Red Hat AS3
I have a problem with the error :ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
The one who read this know what about i tell.
The authorization is only for the user which Group is DBA as you can read everywhere.
but me when i tried groupadd dba => it tells group already exist.
but i can't find the group dba in the file /etc/group.
So i tried to make my user 'oracle' works with the 'already group exist' dba .
useradd -g dba oracle
but when i tried to start the database i create i have the message. : ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
i tried to add manualy the group dba to /etc/group (as i can read in websites)
and add a user manualy (/etc/passwd).
But does works.
I try all i can during 1 days long.
I was really upset because nothing that i read work.
finaly I go to the RedHat Menu (things i don't really do normaly on LINUX) and go to 'SYSTEM SETTINGS' and choose 'User and Group'
Here i can see my user 'Oracle' I get the property of the user .
there is a tab group ( 'select the group that the user will be member of:')
None of them where name DBA so i decidied to select all of them and tried.
MAGIC!!! then it works!!!
ps: after when i see the list of the group I saw that one of them is named 'SYS' . I really think that it is the one group i had to select. but don't know.
Now It is working for me so... And good luck for you. bye.

Errors
ORA-01031 "insufficient privileges"
Symptoms
During database upgrade phase using DBUA , it fails with error
ORA-1031 Insufficient privileges
Connection from sqlplus also fails with same error
$ sqlplus /nolog
SQLPLUS "conn / as sysdba"
ORA-1031 Insufficient privileges
Changing the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to SHARED / NONE does not make differen
Cause
ORACLE_HOME owner oramigts is part of OS group "dba" ,but config.s shows group "g680"
The 'OSDBA' and 'OSOPER' groups are chosen at installation time and usually both default to the group 'dba'.
These groups are compiled into the 'oracle' executable and so are the same for all databases running from a given ORACLE_HOME directory.
The actual groups being used for OSDBA and OSOPER can be checked thus:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
cat config.[cs]
Solution
To implement the solution, please execute the following steps:
1. Checked the ORACLE_HOME owner.
echo $ORACLE_HOME
/h02/app/oracle/product/9.2.0_64
cd / h02/app/oracle/product/
ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 58 oramigts dba 1024 Jan 2 2004 9.2.0_64
2.ORACLE_HOME software owner "oramigts" is part of group "dba"
3.Checked file $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib/config.s
[If your platform has config.c:
Due to the way different compilers under different architectures generate
assembler code, it's not possible to give a universal rule.]
It shows dba group as "g680" where software owner is part of "dba" group
You can more find detail on config.s / config.c in the following doc.
Note 50507.1 SYSDBA and SYSOPER Privileges in Oracle
4. Modified the config.s for correct group.
.ascii "g680\0"
to
.ascii "dba\0"
7. mv config.o config.o.bak
8. make -f ins_rdbms.mk config.o ioracle
9. Checked the file config.o is created at $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
10. Connected / as sysdba thru Sqlplus from 9.2 Home, which connected sucessfully.

No problem at all, you can do the same by getting the output from env and unset the variables that are defined there manually. Start with
unset PATH
unset ORACLE_HOME
unset LD_LIBRATY_PATH
ad start your script again from this environment. The scheduler launches the jobs in an environment where hardly any variable is defined.

Hi all,
i am new with DBMS_SCHEDULER and my need is to create a job, without program and schedule, that i can call in an Apex app.
This job run a window *.bat* file via cmd.exe
I test the .bat with doubleclick and it work.
I test window run with the string c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe/c C:/mycompletepath/myfilename.bat > nul and it work.

Hi Ronald,
I need the external Job in the 10.2.0.4-Environment because of the Online-Upgrade of a 10.2.0.4-Database to 11.2.0.2 with STREAMS. I want to start the old export from a PL/SQL-Procedure.
Now returning to my problem:
First: Change the run user to oracle:oinstall $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora
# This configuration file is used by dbms_scheduler when executing external
# (operating system) jobs. It contains the user and group to run external
# jobs as. It must only be writable by the owner and must be owned by root.
# If extjob is not setuid then the only allowable run_user
# is the user Oracle runs as and the only allowable run_group is the group
# Oracle runs as.
#run_user = nobody
#run_group = nobody
run_user = oracle
run_group = oinstallsecond:
/EXPORT>cat scott_cmd
#!/bin/sh
ORACLE_SID=STB;export ORACLE_SID
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/OraHome_1;export ORACLE_HOME
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin:$PATH; export PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib;export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

                            job_action      => '/EXPORT/scott_cmd',
                            enabled         => TRUE,
                            auto_drop       => FALSE);
END;
/The manual execution of export as user oracle/oinstall was unproblematic, But I still got the error when running the following procedure :

TIA,

Hi,
If rdbms/admin/externaljob.ora exists (in 10.2.0.3 and up) then external jobs run as the user and group specified in this file which should be nobody by default.
If it does not exist (in releases prior to 10.2.0.3) then external jobs run as the owner of bin/extjob which should be nobody by default.
Because external jobs run as a lowly privileged user (nobody) by default, you need to make sure that this user can execute your script. Things to check for include
1) Use full paths to all binaries or scripts in job_action or program_action as well as calls inside the script.
2) Make sure all scripts start with #!/bin/sh or another command interpreter
3) Make sure all scripts have the executable bit set and are executable by the user that external jobs run as
4) Make sure that all required environment variables are set. External jobs by default do not have any environment variables set. For example, for an oracle import or export or sqlloader script you may need to set oracle_home, oracle_sid, ld_library_path and path environment variables in your script or source the required Oracle environment script.
Hope this helps,
Ravi.

ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: Incorrect function

Hello,
I am calling a windows bat file using dbms_scheduler and getting the following error. I have searched the forum and the internet and tried different switches and options. None of them solved my problem.
Oracle Version: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
OracleJobScheduler is running as a service
Error starting at line 1 in command:
execute GET_RESULTS();
Error report:

27369. 00000 - "job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: %s"
*Cause:    A problem was encountered while running a job of type EXECUTABLE.
The cause of the actual problem is identified by the exit code.
*Action:   Correct the cause of the exit code and reschedule the job.
Here is the code for scheduler
      dbms_output.put_line(os_commandline || utlPath || fileSeparator || 'get.bat >nul')
      dbms_scheduler.create_job
      (   job_name          =>'PS_GET_RESULTS'
            , job_action        => os_commandline || utlPath || fileSeparator || 'get.bat >nul'
            , job_type          =>'executable'
            , enabled           =>false
            , auto_drop         =>false
            , start_date        =>systimestamp
      dbms_scheduler.run_job(job_name =>'PS_GET_RESULTS');The dbs_output prints a line which shows that the parameters os_commandline, utlPath and fileSeparator are set correctly.
     C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /q /c E:\UTLDir\get.bat >nulThe windows file (get.bat) is:
     "C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\Winscp.exe" /script=e:\utldir\get_resultsThis batch file passes a script file to the executable winscp.exe to get files from another server.
The script file (get_results) is:
     option batch abort
     option confirm off
     open sftp://username:password@ipnumber:port -hostkey="ssh-rsa 1024 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
     cd /usr/dropbox/
     option transfer binary
     get *.results E:\UTLDir\Results\
     close
     exitI tested the batch file directly and works fine and "gets" the files from the server. But, invoking from Oracle dbms_scheduler fails with ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: Incorrect function.
Appreciate your help and time in suggesting additional guidelines or pointers.
Thanks,
Rose

Here is an update, if somebody else is having a similar problem.
The ftp command "cd" to change the directories should be an absolute path. I was given a path "/usr/dropbox/", but on the server it actually corresponds to "/usr/local/apps/dropbox/". After updating the directory path, the scheduler worked fine in invoking the batch file for transferring the files.
Thanks,
Rose

ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: No such file or directory

Hi,
I am using the scheduler to take backup of the dev database and it was working fine. Then I added notification to the scripts and then the scheduler started failing with the following code .
BEGIN dbms_scheduler.run_job('BACKUP_DEV'); END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: No such file or
directory
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_ISCHED", line 150
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SCHEDULER", line 441
ORA-06512: at line 1
Here' the original which has no issues
#!/bin/bash -x
echo $@
if [ -z "$ORACLE_HOME" ]; then
source /path/oracle/.bash_profile
fi
RMAN="${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/rman";
${RMAN} $@
exit $?
And here's the one which gives me the errors. Also if I run this script from command line it works perfectly fine
#!/bin/bash -x
echo $@
if [ -z "$ORACLE_HOME" ]; then
source /path/oracle/.bash_profile
fi
RMAN="${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/rman";
exec >> temp_log
${RMAN} $@
/usr/bin/mailx -s "Backup status of $ORACLE_SID " [email protected] < temp_log
/usr/bin/rm temp_log
exit $?
Pls let me know what could be the reason that the script fails with the scheduler.

Hi,
The user oracle who owns the scheduler already has permissions for the mailx and the same script is able to send notifications when run manully. Do I need to set additional permissions for scheduler ?
Also the db version is 10.2.0.5.
Thanks

ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: Not owner

Hi
I created a backup RAC database job using DBMS_SCHEDULER under RMANTEST schema (a DBA account) and I got the error as subject.
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job(
job_name => 'scheduler_backup',
job_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
number_of_arguments => 2,
job_action => '/opt/oracle/admin/bin/rman_fullbackup_RAC_TEST_test.sh',
comments => 'backup via scheduler'
dbms_scheduler.SET_JOB_ARGUMENT_VALUE('scheduler_backup', 1, 'TEST');
dbms_scheduler.SET_JOB_ARGUMENT_VALUE('scheduler_backup', 2, 'TEST2');
dbms_scheduler.enable('scheduler_backup');
end;
Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Ravi
Thanks for your input.
"ORA-27369: job of type EXECUTABLE failed with exit code: Not owner" is what I copied from ADDITIONAL_INFO of USER_SCHEDULER_JOB_RUB_DETAILS.
One thing I don't understand of your words is that
"On 10gR1 and 10gR2 you can redirect the stdout/stderr within your script and take a look at those log files."
In my script, I have log files but I cannot see it. I guess the job fails directly without hitting the redirection line in the script. Do you mean I shall write something like this
dbms_scheduler.create_job (
job_action => '/opt/oracle/admin/bin/backup.sh > backup.log'
Another one is
"make sure that the user that external jobs run as must be able to run your script"
But OS user and database user are two different accounts at different level.
I am using 10.2.0.2 RAC. The Unix script runs successfully every night. I just want to take advantage of DBMS_SCHEDULER to avoid host dependency.
Thanks,
Kevin

You need to set ORACLE_HOME inside backupset_full script and possibly change rman to $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman
#!usr/bin/bash
export ORACLE_HOME=<your_oracle_home _directory>

if v_tts_name is not null then
v_job_name := 'run_tts_'||v_tts_name;
v_source := '/-ssid/'||v_source;
