As SYSDBA from VB 6.0

Hi.
How can I connect me as sysdba since Visual Basic, my ConnectionString is:
ConnectionString = "Data Source=" & ServiceOraDb & ";User ID=" & pUser & ";Password=" & pass & ";"
The result is:
Error #-2147467259: PRAYS-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied Status.
Thanks.
Eyes
PD:
Public Oracon As New ADODB.Connection
Oracon.Provider = "OraOLEDB.Oracle"
Oracon.ConnectionString = "Data Source=" & ServiceOraDb & ";User ID=" & pUser & ";Password=" & pass & ";"
Oracon.Errors.Refresh
Oracon.Open
...

The following works:
Dim cnX As ADODB.Connection
Set cnX = New ADODB.Connection
cnX.ConnectionString = "Provider=MSDASQL.1;Persist Security Info=False; " & _
"Extended Properties=""DSN=yourDSN;UID=sys;PWD=yoursyspwd as SYSDBA;DBQ=yourSID;"""
cnX.Open
Also, see note 276719.1 on Metalink.

Login as SYSDBA from forms 6i

Hi,
I am using oracle 10g r2 and forms 6i(patch 25). When i tried to logon as SYS as SYSDBA from form, the following error raised "Insufficient previlege". the OS user is in oradba group and i tried creating password file, but still the problem persists. Is there any solution to solve this issue.
Muruganandhan

I seem to remember that maybe you need to create an oradba entry of some kind in your local windows registry under your appropriate oracle home key.
Sorry, can't quite bring more than that to mind right now.

Connecting as SYSDBA from Remote Machine

Hello,
I've installed Oracle8.6.1 on Linux6.2,& i've installed DBA studio on one my windows'NT machine.
When i want to connect as SYSDBA from DBA Studio & Username/Password as system/manager it says --
ORA-01031 Insufficient Privileges
but i'can connect as SYSOPER & Normal.
Do anyone know how to solve this problem???
null

1. use orapwd command-line utility to create a new password file.
2. set remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive in initxxx.ora file.
3. restart instance.
4. use sql*plus or svrmgrl to grant sysdba right to the schemas you want to be able to logon with sysdba rights.

Connect to SYSDBA from inside SQLplus? Default password?

Ok, I could call SQLplus with the SYSDBA user as
sqlplus / as sysdba
but assume I am in a SQLplus session as SYSTEM user and I just want to quick switch to SYSDBA
through a "conn" command and execute some instructions?
How can I do this? How is the default password of SYSDBA (and SYSOPER) ?
the following does not work:
SQL>conn SYSDBA/sysdba
How else can I connect?

PeterPeter,
Well first of all, there is no user called SYSDBA, Its a role not a user. Here is the link which tells what this role contains and another SysOPER also,
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/dba.htm#sthref137
Now the comamnd that you have given, connect sysdba/sysdba, is wrong fron start to finish as there is no user like this. One may think that the option to quickly switch can be setting the current schema to sys but that also doesn't work for SYS user,

Cant conect "sys as sysdba" from remote

Hi all ,
A strange thing happening with me ..
my database is on ip(prod1) and client is ip(Host)
When I make connecttion from prod1 as follows :
sqlplus sys@prod1 as sysdba
connected ...
Its giving me sys connection .
But from IP (remote HOst client )
when i fire
sqlplus sys@prod1 as sysdba
LOGON denied ...
But from IP(remote Host client )when i firng
sqlplus scott/tiger@prod1
connected ....
1.i m typing crrect password
2. my remote_login_passwordfile = EXCLUSIVE

1. Are you connecting to the right database ?
On you remote client:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/tnsping prod1 and make sure that it'is resolving to the right service.
2. Try to connect via EZCONNECT (NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH should contain ezconnect value):
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus sys@hostname:port/service as sysdba
On your server
3. Check your $TNS_ADMIN/sqlnet.ora Make sure there is no such a line as
tcp.validnode_checking = yes
If so, make sure that your remote client is a part of tcp.invited_nodes

thanks

Did you ever get this to work? I'm having the same problem. If I remote to the server and log on directly as sys, I can do fine. If I try from my PC, I get the insuff priv error. I can connect to other databases fine from my PC, but not this particular one.
thanks,

ODBC login as sysdba

What is the syntax? From a client desktop I can login to SQL Plus and Enterprise Manager 10g, but not via ODBC (Test Connection) using the same login.
SQL PLUS:
Start/Programs/Oracle - OraDb10g_home3/Application Development/SQL Plus
presents a login box. I enter info as follows, and login is successful
User Name: sys
Password: <mysyspwd>
Host String: ORCL AS SYSDBA
web site to Enterprise Manager also presents a login box
User Name: sys
Password: <mysyspwd>
Connect As <I select SYSDBA from the dropdown list.>
but, ODBC, System DSN tab, Add
Data Source Name: <whatever>
TNS Service Name: ORCL -- or ORCL AS SYSDBA
User ID: sys
Click Test Connection
Password: <mysyspwd>
When the TNS Service name is filled in with only the TNSname,
I get ORA-28009 connection to sys should be as sysdba or sysoper
When the TNS Service name is filled in with TNSname AS SYSDBA,
the error is ORA-12154 TNS:couldnot resolve the connect identifier specified.
When TNS Service name is ORCL and User Id is SYS AS SYSDBA,
the error is ORA-01017:invalid username/password;login denied
The dirver is Oracle in OraDB10g_home3 (10.01.00.02 SQORA32.DLL 2/10/2004)
And I can login via ODBC using
TNS Service Name: ORCL
User ID: scott
Click Test Connection button
Password: tiger
I get Connection successful
Thank you, Nancy

1 Both are dangerous, but using ODBC you can store the password of the account in the registry or odbc.ini. ODBC connections are usually being distributed to the end-users who don't have the faintest idea what they are doing. However, if they do know how to write a passthrough query, they can do anything.
2 Your database is open to everyone. You are exposing sensitive data. It is in hand of people who might know some SQL. Who might write incorrect queries. Who might doing things which can not be traced, as everything was executed by SYS.
The issue is most developers of commercial software vendors and major consultancies do not care about security at all. I was often instructed to grant the DBA role to the application owner, because otherwise 'the application doesn't work'. There are far more incompetent developers out there than you and I can imagine.
Connecting to the database as SYS, indicates a lack of concern for security, and being too lazy to find out what privileges are really required.
I'm not aware of any reason why the use of SYS should be allowed in any client tool other than sqlplus or maybe sqldeveloper.

i think you are fully getting ,what's my problem...I think you mean that I am not :)
conn xyzklaspdsba/dakdoa as sysdba xyzklaspdsba would be a database user
Anyway if you scroll through the document, it states that the only requirement using operating system authentication to connect is;
CONNECT / AS SYSDBA or AS SYSOPER
From remote database connection
CONNECT /@net_service_name AS SYSDBA or AS SYSOPER
Simply said it does not consider the database username or password as O/S user belongs to OSDBA or OSOPER groups.
Hope it is clear.

Importing data from a data-backup file

Hi,
my application runs external process that imports (should import) data from a backup file created using the exp command. Export file is created by gDBUser from global database (GDB) and should be imported by lDBUser to local database (LDB).
process1.StartInfo.FileName = "imp.exe";
process1.StartInfo.Arguments = String.Format(" userid=\\\"{0}/{1}@{2} as SYSDBA\\\" fromuser={3} touser={4} tables=({5})", dbUserName, dbUserPass, serviceName, fromDBUser, toDBUser, tableNames);
process1.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
process1.Start();
Everything works fine as long as the user running my application is member of the DBA system (Windows) group. Unfortunately, in most cases the user does not belong to that group and import fails with the following error message:
IMP-00058: ORACLE error 1031 encountered
ORA-01031: insufficient privilegesUsername:
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
Users should not be members of the DBA group in order not to be able to modify the data otherways then by using the app. They don't even know the dbUserName nor dbUserPass.
Is there a way to be able to perform such import without running it as member of DBA group?
I'll appreciate your help.
Best regards
Rob

Hi Mark,
No, it isn't necessary to connect as sysdba.
In the meantime I found the solution.
My dbUser had no CREATE TABLE privilege. As soon as I granted it and removed "AS SYSDBA" from the userid parameter everything started to work fine.
Thanks

Database Login - Can not login as sysdba

I have a userid for a database on a separate server. I can login as sysdba on the server with the database and from the OEM server. I can not login as sysdba from OEM. Is there a change that needs to be made to the password file or does there need to be password file on the OEM repository server?

What do you mean with OEM server here? Centralized gridcontrol server? That's a different concept, you connect to a specific administration user (often SYSMAN), 'sysdba' is not applicable here. Otherwise a server, which hosts a standalone DBConsole is not different from any other database server.

Unable to connect 11g database as a sysdba using toad 10

Please i need an urgent help.
First i will let you know about my environment.
OS : HP-UX 11.3
Database : 11g R1
Toad : 10.6
I have set the password file with more than 1 entries for sysdba. The below message will shows the entries of user entry in password file.
SQL> select username,sysdba from v$pwfile_users;
USERNAME SYSDB
SYS TRUE
TPAUSER TRUE
When i try to connect to the database 11g using the user as sysdba i am getting error ora- 01031 : Insufficient privileges.
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance

/ as sysdba means, omit username and passowrd and use OS authentication. For OS authentication to work, the account must be a member of the OSDBA group, which is DBA on a Unix server, or ORA_DBA under Windows. Remote SQL*Net logins cannot use OS authentication, but can use the password file.
The password stored in your password file may not be the same used for the Oracle Admin account. Please see the following link how to setup the password file:
