Cannot connect via sqlplus as sysdba

Hi,
I have Oracle 10g setup on Redhat Enterprise v4. I was able to do everything I needed until I rebooted. Now I can't connect using sqlplus. I get error ora-01031 when I type "connect system/*** AS SYSDBA" Anyone know what why this is happening?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Adam

According to me this should be dba, why its showing the group as oracle?I'm not sure why it's showing up as oracle. Do I need to change this? As far as I can tell, oracle is a group that no user is a member of.
Did you ever able make connection using / as sysdba?On this computer, I don't think I ever logged in as sysdba other than just as a system user.
What group did you specify while installing the software?groupadd oinstall
groupadd dba
groupadd oper
usermod -g oinstall -G dba oracle
Pretty much followed http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/OracleDB10gR2InstallationOnRedHatAS4.php and the oracle docs on installation.

  • Cannot connect via cable on Windows XP home SP2

    Good Afternoon,
    Maybe you can assist me here.
    I cannot connect via cable my N91 (4 gb hdd) to Windows XP Home SP2. I can however connect via cable to my work computer which has the OS Windows XP Pro sp2.
    In both cases both OS's are up to date, I have updated the phone OS to v2.10.013 RM-43. I am using the most up to date drivers that is available on nokia.com as well as the current ed of PC Suite (6.82.22.0)
    The following is the steps I followed in both cases starting with XP Pro
    1. Installed Drivers
    2. Installed PC Suite
    3. When prompted by PC Suite connected Phone via cable to Computer, further install steps were required. No reboot required. PC Suite then picked up phone
    XP Home
    Followed steps 1 + 2 in the same order
    3. Connected N91 to XP Home computer, after driver install activity rebooted computer as requested. Disconnected N91 On reboot to desktop, in PC Suite I clicked on Get connected. Select Cable connection when prompted attached cable to computer and then to phone, on the phone select PC Suite. .
    At this point I get the hour glass and nothing happens, Next is ghosted. It has been like this for 20 mins.
    I have uninstalled both the drivers and the software. For some reason the updater can connect to the phone.
    Can you advise on what I can do.

  • Hi my wife and I have an iphone 5 each yet we cannot connect via bluetooth any solutions please

    Hi All
    My wife and I cannot connect via bluetooth both phones just go in search mode but find nothing and both phones are now discoverable any help please thanks in advance

    You can do it via Wi-Fi through email. Or you can set up an iPhoto library with a shared PhotoStream in order to share photos.
    If you both sync your devices using iTunes to the same iTunes Library, then you can have a common library of data that each of you can sync to your devices. You can also share data through your iCloud storage account. You have 5 GBs for your Apple ID and can purchase more if needed.

  • WRT54GS cannot connect via wire...connects wirelessly

    I have a WRT54GS and cannot connect laptop via wire.
    I can connect wirelessly, but when I try hard wire no go.
    I have attempted to update the ethernet adapter it is up to date.
    I have rebooted
    I have put the mac address into my router. no go
    If I connect the wire from the laptop directly to the cable modem it works.

    Hooked it to another  cable right by the router WRT54GS and it connected, and it worked.
    Also If I bypass the router from the non working location it works.
    No error message there is however a little red X between the router and the www globe when I try and use the wizard.
    No access restriction...just tried it fwiw
    Have not tried upgrading

  • Only 'oracle' account can connect via sqlplus

    Currently, only the linux oracle account can connect to the
    server via sqlplus. A have put an exact copy of oracle's
    .profile script into other accounts home directories, and those
    accounts belong to the linux dba group. When another account
    starts sqlplus, they are prompted with login and password, and
    the the following error occurs:
    ORA-01034 ORACLE NOT AVAILABLE
    But if I login as 'oracle', i can connect no problem. I always
    start the server under the oracle account with the dbstart
    script.
    I am probably overlooking something stupid, any ideas?

    There is nothing to do with your .profile, default password, etc.
    After Oracle installation via the installer (orainst), have you
    run root.sh? Root.sh will set the setuid/setgid bit on for the
    file $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle. If it is not set, only the owner
    (i.e. oracle/dba) can connect.
    Fix the problem by rerun root.sh. If it doesn't help, simply run
    the commands:
    $ chown oracle:dba $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle
    $ chmod ug+s $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle

  • Time Capsule cannot connect via PPPoe when MacBook Pro can.

    I used to connect to the internet using my TC as a router, connecting via PPPoE using a DSL modem.
    While my ISP had a problem with their network, the TC stop connecting to the PPPoE host and the amber light kept blinking. Because this was taking too long, I decided to investigate this issue.
    I tried connecting my laptop directly to the modem, the restored my original configuration.
    My MacBook Pro connected via ethernet to the DSL modem, is able to connect to the internet using a PPPoE connection. When I try the same via the TC, it just doesn't connect!
    What should I do to troubleshoot this?
    Is it possible that it is related to my ISP? Even though the laptop manages to connect via PPPoE.
    Even the DSL modem when switched to router functionality is able to connect via PPPoE.
    Only the TC seems to fail. What could be the problem?
    (I have ruled out incorrect passwords and faulty wiring...)

    There is some extra info I need.
    What modem.. make and model..?? What kind of broadband?
    How is the Buffalo setup? Is it router or bridged and if router is it using pppoe?
    There is nothing wrong with keeping the buffalo .. it is a very reasonable router.. and just use the TC in bridge plugged into it..
    I have to confess I really dislike the airport utility v6 in Mountain Lion.. it is a kiddie toy version of the real v5 utility. Half your problems relate to the near to useless nature of the utility.
    Can you install 5.6 and then we can get somewhere.
    Here is howto..
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall 6.1 so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.

  • Time Capsule: Wired connection works but cannot connect via wifi to net

    Hi all,
    I've had a Time Capsule for a year or so. I've been having problems with connectivity over recent months and I'm not sure where the issue is.
    I have plugged in an ethernet cable joining my MBA to the TC, and another from the TC to the wall socket. I can access the internet without any problems.
    However, if I unplug the ethernet cable from my MBA (or indeed if I don't plug it in in the first place) then I cannot connect to the internet. I can still back up to Time Machine etc., but nothing can get 'through' the TC.
    Also, if I turn Mobile Data off for my iPhone, I cannot then access the internet via WiFi through the TC.
    Any ideas as to how to fix this? The TC is in bridging mode, which has worked fine before. All suggestions welcome!

    Ok.. let me try again..
    Going back to your first post.
    I have plugged in an ethernet cable joining my MBA to the TC, and another from the TC to the wall socket. I can access the internet without any problems.
    However, if I unplug the ethernet cable from my MBA (or indeed if I don't plug it in in the first place) then I cannot connect to the internet. I can still back up to Time Machine etc., but nothing can get 'through' the TC.
    When you plug in via ethernet the MBA works but not by wireless..
    Now add that to the new info.
    The campus network relies on each PC's individual MAC address and then assigns IP addresses as required;
    Is the MAC address actually registered?? Because the MAC address of the ethernet port of the MBA and the MAC address of the wireless are different.
    If the MAC addresses are not registered.. how does the Uni know the difference between a computer and a router??
    You are not allow to run a router that feeds DHCP into the uni system.. but they cannot know what you have behind the MAC address of the item plugged in. A computer or a router.
    So the TC has to be in bridging mode - which has worked perfectly well previously
    Try releasing the MAC address to the PORT.. because the uni might have decided they don't want hubs connected either.. therefore the address of whichever device that is plugged into the wall is registered at the switch and will not allow a change for a fix period.. that is one way to stop people changing stuff around.
    Try powering off the TC.. when you use another item.. or change from ethernet to wireless.. then power up the TC again and then power up the device .. eg the wireless on the laptop.. If it fails, it is not the TC that is causing it.. because in bridge the TC is completely dumb. It has no ability to control the MAC address being sent to the main router. None whatsoever.
    If your TC recently upgraded to 7.6.4 firmware.. though.. well it can do all kinds of nasties.. flash it back to 7.6.1 and factory reset it.. and hope it works as it did before.. if not the uni changed the system to prevent your TC acting even as a hub.

  • Cannot connect VIA Remote Desktop to Windows 8.1 on a virtual machine

    I have Windows 8.1 Enterprise running in a Hyper-V VM. For some reason I cannot connect to the VM using remote desktop. I am using a Microsoft account and  remote desktop is enabled and my account has access. I am able to see the VM under
    networks and access shared folders. The error I am getting is "Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer....".
    Any ideas?

    My account has access to RDP. The  firewall rule to allow RDP was missing the permission for public networks. After this change the RDP client can find the computer and I can get in. Yay!
    Thanks for the tip to check the firewall.

  • I coud not connect by sqlplus / as sysdba

    export ORACLE_SID=prod
    sqlplus / as sysdbait gives the following error:
    ora-01030:insufficient privilege
    how could i login by / as sysdba? do i need some setting?

    You should create a special group for 'dba'.
    Some installations also prefer you create an 'oinstall', but I prefer not to use it myself.
    Rather, I just use the 'dba' group.
    You should have an entry in your /etc/group file similar to:
    dba:!:201:oracle
    Then, in your password file, you should see the 'group' field (4th field) with the group ID that is in the /etc/group file.
    oracle:!:215:201::/home/oracle:/usr/bin/ksh
    Above, notice that the password entry notes the Oracle User ID (UID) is 215, and the Group ID (GID) is 201.
    This is just an example (of course), and yours will be different.
    As a recommendation, you might make a DBA group with ID 501 and then change the Oracle group ID to 501.
