Changing Oracle Passwords through HTML DB anonymous blocks

I am attempting to use DAD as my authentication method. The site will only be accessible through an SSL connection, so I'm not too worried about security. Plus it is a small target audience. I don't want to mess with LDAP because of the unnecessary complexity of adding it just for a single application. One of the requirements is changing passwords through the application. I always get an ORA-01935 (missing user or role name). Any ideas?

Just a note, I get this from an after submit process that executes the following pl/sql anonymous block:
begin
execute immediate 'alter user :P9_USERNAME identified by :P9_PASSWORD1';
exception
when others then
raise_application_error(-20911, 'Could not change password for user: ' || :P9_USERNAME || ' ' || SQLERRM);
end;

My computer continually asks me to enter my password for Keychain access. This problem is continuos and I am having trouble with eliminating it.
I have changed my password through Security and my Accounts numerous times to no avail.
Is there anything I can do other than Resetting the entire computer and re installing all of the software, apps, etc.etc.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.

Using alter user to change oracle password for logged in web user on XE

Hi All
I'm building an app using the pl/sql web toolkit on XE (installed on Win XP Pro SP2). (I'm not using the APEX front-end).
I'm using basic authentication and oracle database user accounts, and when a user registers for the first time I create them an oracle user account with dynamic sql, followed by some initial setup stuff, and they then log in with it.
All fine so far.
However I want to allow the user to change their oracle password as part of maintaining their user details. I've done this in the past using the web toolkit and Oracle 9i and it has worked fine using dynamic sql.
Unfortunately I can't get the same thing to work in XE.
For example, if I create the following procedure in the schema aligned to the DAD which holds my application and then run it from a browser (IE or Firefox) then the
Browser and the db just hangs - not even an error message:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ut
AS
v_stmt varchar2(300);
BEGIN
HTP.htmlOpen;
HTP.headOpen;
HTP.title ('User Test');
HTP.headClose;
HTP.bodyOpen;
v_stmt := 'alter user "'||user||'" identified by "BERT"';
htp.print(v_stmt);
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_stmt;
htp.print('Done');
HTP.bodyClose;
HTP.htmlClose;
END;
If I run the same statement in SQL*plus it's fine, and if I run the same proc for a different user then it's fine too.
I'm sure it's something to do with trying to change the credentials of the currently logged in user, but I would at least have expected an error message.
I'd be grateful for any ideas.
Thanks
Steve

Hi g.myers
Thanks for your response.
Sorry, yes, bad turn of phrase there. It's not the entire db that hangs. The web browser (either IE or FF) hangs, and if I look at v$session at this point, I can see that the user STATUS=ACTIVE and the STATE=WAITING.
I should also point out that I am using standard Oracle users as users of the application, (e.g. create a new user account called TESTER1). These users are then granted the appropriate privileges on the owning schema in order to run the app, access the tables etc.
Therefore it is the user account (e.g. TESTER1) that is running the password change procedure that is owned by the SYS schema. (However again, this is the exact code and method that I've used in the past and it has worked fine).
If I leave the browser hanging long enough, it will eventually return with the following error:
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request POST /h/hopapp.pwdmaint_do.
Reason: Error reading from remote server

Procedure/package to change user password through plsql gateway

I'm not sure is this the right place to ask, but I don't know anywhere better.
I'm using Oracle 817 with the apache that bundled. I use the plsql gateway (mod_plsql). I want to create a page for user to change their password, however, I don't know how to verify the existing password of the user before changing to a new password. Also, how can I change the password, is there a standard procedure to do that?
One more question, when I key in the following:
http://myhost/pls/my_dad/my_schema.my_procedure
the web server return a page with lots of cgi environment (assuming the my_procedure doesn't exist), how can I customise this page?
thx.

To ensure security of the Oracle database system and prevent unauthorized access to the Oracle database, it’s important for Oracle users to not only using strong and long Oracle passwords to avoid brute force or dictionary attacks, but also to change the Oracle user password regularly. Oracle users also have to change the password when the password has or going to expire, if database system administrator implements and enforces strict password control with PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME option for user profiles which limits the number of days the password can be used for authentication to login to the system.
To change the Oracle password, users can use SQL*Plus or Oracle SQL and PL/SQL language interface administration tool such as Toad for Oracle. No matter what SQL apps you use, the commands and SQL query languages used to change the password are similar.
There are two SQL command syntaxes that can be used to change Oracle database user password:
ALTER USER user_name IDENTIFIED BY new_password;or (from Oracle8 and above):
PASSWORD
For above SQL query, if you need to change another user’s password, use the following command:
PASSWORD user_name
For PASSWORD command, after you press Enter, you will be prompted to input the old password and new password interactively. For example:
SQL> password
Changing password for DAVID
Old password:
New password:
Retype new password: Note: You need to have enough privileges to change other Oracle user’s password.
As the variable in italic implied by name, user_name is the user whose password wishes to be changed, and new_password is the new password to assign.
As ALTER USER SQL syntax will send the new password to the Oracle database server unencrypted if use without Advanced Security Option, and thus expose to security risk, Oracle users should always use the PASSWORD command to change the Oracle user password.

Automatically change the password and block user

Hi experts,
I have a strange problem, I have start the part java, but, when takes some time, AUTOMATICALLY change the password J2EE_ADMIN and SAPJSF and block the user SAPJSF, so, it doesn´t work the portal and i have to change the password and unlock the SAPJSF, why?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,

Hi Victor,
you may create another communication user as a copy of SAPJSF but having a different name. Use only the newly created user and block SAPJSF. The application that changes his password will lock an exception somewhere - either on ABAP side or on J2EE side.
Cheers,
Anja

Autonomous Transactions usage in PL/SQL anonymous block coding

Hi,
I am trying to incorporate Autonomous Transaction for our work. I am using the tables provided below,
CREATE TABLE T1
F1 INTEGER,
F2 INTEGER
CREATE TABLE T2
F1 INTEGER,
F2 INTEGER
insert into t1(f1, f2)
values(20, 0)
insert into t2(f1, f2)
values(10, 0)
Now, when I use the code snippet given below, it is working as expected.
create or replace procedure p1 as
PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION;
begin
     update t2
     set f2 = 25
     where f1 = 10;
     commit;
end;
declare
PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION;
a integer;
begin
     update t1
     set f2 = 15
     where f1 = 20;
     p1();
     rollback;
end;
Here, updation in t2 table is commited and t1 is rolled back, it is working as
expected. I would like to achieve the same functionality through PL/SQL
anonymous block coding, to do this, I use the following code snippet,
declare
PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION;
a integer;
begin
     update t1
     set f2 = 15
     where f1 = 20;
     begin
          update t2
          set f2 = 35
          where f1 = 10;
          commit;
     end;
     rollback;
end;
Here, data in both the tables are commited, how do I change it to work as I
mentioned above like committing t2 alone, please help, thank you.
Regards,
Deva

Can you explain what you're trying to accomplish from a business perspective? This doesn't look like a particularly appropriate way to use autonomous transactions, so you may be causing yourself problems down the line.
That said, padders's solution does appear to work for me

Securing oracle Passwords using OIM

Hello,
First , i would like to say that i have no experience at all with OIM .
I have tens of oracle production instances.
Each instance has its own unique SYS/SYSTEM/Other users passwords.
I would like to create a repository and save there all those hundreds of passwords - encrypted.
I will also need to have an access to this repository and allow to decrypt password using a secure shell script.
I would like to know if this can be done using OIM.
Thanks

This tool uses a simple file to stores the passwords encrypted. Well, I urge you to secure this file to make it non-accessible for others.

Change the SYS & SYSTEM Oracle passwords with BRTOOLS, any concerns ?

Hello, I would like to change both the SYS and SYSTEM Oracle passwords with BRTOOLS :
(1) Can I use BRTOOLS to change them, or, I have to change them through SQLPlus ?
(2) Any concerns, will this password change affect my SAP normal operations ?
(3) Do I need to re-start the whole SAP UNIX system when I complete the password changing ?
(4) Or changing these 2 passwords is totally an Oracle RDBMS issue, it will not have any effect on SAP ?

But I failed. I was going to change the password of SYSTEM, but why SAP asked me to enter the password of SAPDEV ?
Why ? OK, then I entered the SAPDEV password (it is the same as SYSTEM's old password).
Then, I called SQLPlus and entered login name : SYSTEM, but why its correct password was still the old one, the new one failed. Why ?
I just wanted to change the password of SYSTEM, why it was related to SAPDEV ?

I changed SYS password and only a few people can login through it

A few weeks ago i decided to change the default password of SYS from the webbased OEM of Oracle 10g. Me and my collegues connected successfully using this new password (from different computers). However today i discovered that two developers which also use the SYS account, cannot access the database using SYS with this new password (nor the old one). The error message they are getting is Invalid username/password... (no they didn't forget the capslock on!)
The strange things are that:
1) They can connect through other usernames but not through SYS
2) the database is on the 192.168.4.x network, me and my collegues are on the 192.168.2.x network and the two developers and their team-mates are on the 192.168.14.x network.
Could this be a network related problem? I don't know ... When it was the default change_on_install password, everyone used to connect normally. I changed the password again, to a simple one to make really sure they are not typing it wrong, and yet, they got the same Invalid username/password error..
I have exhausted all my ideas. what am i missing? thanks...

In your case , I am almost sure that they pointing to another database. Check its network files in the Oracle Home.
From what tool thwy are try to log in ?
Why developers need the sys account?

You cannot "ssh passwd username" remotely, for one thing. Remember, the passwd command is going to ask for input from the terminal.
Also, look into the pfexec man page because you might need to change roles in order to change the password on the remote system.
