Connect to sqlplus not validating username/password

Hello,
I have a sql script that I'm executing on the sqlplus command line after issuing a <b>sqlplus /nolog</b> command.
I'm passing in the username and password, as follows, to connect:<br><br><b>
connect &DBAUSERNAME1/&DBAPASS1 as sysdba;
<br><br></b>
But I do not understand why, if I enter an invalid username or password, it connects me anyways? Why is it not validating the username/password combination I supply?
Thank you,
Laura

Because of your "as sysdba" option. You're connected
like SYS.
SQL> conn sys/oracle@ora102 as sysdba
Connected.
sys@ORA102> conn sys/hello@ora102 as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
Warning: You are no longer connected to ORACLE.
sys@ORA102>Because you connect locally and os authentification (i.e. your are in the trusted os group) is used. In this case password will not be verified.
Best regards

  • Unable to connect to the MKS: Login (username / password) incorrect

    Hello everyone, my first post.
    Several months I've been trying to solve a problem with VMWare Server Remote Console 2.0
    When I try to open the remote console of any machine I have I get the following error:
    Unable to connect to the MKS: Login (username / password) incorrect
    Not to do and not understand why. If anyone can help I would appreciate that.
    Thank you all.

    There's a quick fix here.
    Just a guess, but I think it has something to do with computers not being on a domain.  I'm logged into my local Windows 7 system using the same username/password as my domain user, and I connect to network resources using that.  To spite the fact that my computer is not on the doman, I can see in the VMWare status window that it's using DOMAIN\user instead of just the user to start the VM.  Perhaps when the VMWare services auto-start the domain hasn't been authenticated to yet, hence the account is not valid.
    Original text from that site:
    Today I stumbled upon an issue in VMWare Server 2.0 problem today on a client’s server. I could log into the web administration console of VMWare Server, and I could manage the VMs from there without a problem.
    The issue came when I tried to open the console window on one of the VMs from within the VMWare admin console. The Console window opened, but after a few moments I saw: “Unable to connect to the MKS: Login (username/password) incorrect”
    I tried creating a desktop shortcut for the VM (from the VM’s summary pane), but still ran into the same problem.
    Shortly after unsuccessfully googling the error, I discovered the solution myself. I simply restarted the following Services:
    – VMWare Authorization Service
    – VMWare Server Web Access
    (In the process it restarts another one or two services, but does not interrupt any active VMs).
    After the service restart, the VM console windows opened without any problems.

  • TS1398 After updating to ios 6 my iphone 4 would no longer connect to my home wifi. At work we have a free wifi connection that does not require a password. However my wifi at home is password protected. I have the right password. It works on my ipod touc

    After updating my iphone 4 with the ios 6 update. My iphone would no longer connect to my home wifi that is password protected. I know that I have the right password entered in. At work we have a free wifi connection that does not require a password and I can connect no problem to it. My ipod touch has no problem connecting to my home wifi. It is a 3rd gen ipod and does not have the ios 6 update on it. Please help!

    I'm having the same issues. Started when I upgraded iphone 4S and ipad1 to 5.1.1. Wife's iphone 4g on 4.4.2 has been ok. I've forgot the network on both devices and restored the iphone, none of which changed the issue. I've upgraded to ios 6 on the iphone 4s, problem still persists.
         One thing that will help for a time: go to your router and change the wireless control channel. When I first did this I got full connectivity for about 48 hours... and now the problem is back. I'm now changing the wireless control channel every 12 hours, which is a pain but at least keeps me connected. I've tried a few other solutions that are out there and that has been the best one so far.
         to do this on a motorola router: type 192.168.0.1 in your address bar.
    username: admin and password:motorola if you have not changed the factory defaults.
    Click on the word "wireless" and look for the "control channel" field. This may be set to auto or to 1, try changing it to 6 or 11 (preferred) or any other channel.
    The control channel can cause static in the wireless system IF there are several networks nearby that are on the default setup.
    There is a fair bit of buzz about this issue out there, some other things I've seen:
    This is a hardware issue. Go to the store and have your wifi antenna checked, some users reporting that they get free replacement devices.
    Check against other wifi networks that require a password (this is next for me). Logon to those networks and surf until your wifi stops. If your wifi connects to the internet but stops responding, then this is a software (or hardware) issue and apple needs to step up. Some are claiming this to be the case.
    IF you connect and stay connected/on the internet on another password protected wifi, then the issue is with your router. this is where things get cute.
    Comcast may tell you to update your firmware. Motorola may tell you that your cable provider is the only one who can push through firmware updates. Comcast may tell you that you are not in an area that is being updated. It's unclear if they say that to all customers, or just those who have purchased cable modems and aren't renting them from comcast.
    Good luck, more to come if I figure out anything else, and please post any solutions you may find.

  • Destroying connection that is not valid, due to the following exception [com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Connection reset]

    Hi everyone, 
    I'm facing the following problem in a Server runing Linux with JBoss AS 4.2.2, JRE 1.6, and MSSQL Server 2005 with JDBC 2.0 (sqljdbc4.jar).
    The thing is: on friday morning I started up the server and everything worked fine ... next, from Friday at 6pm to Saturday at 8am nobody has used the system. 
    Then on Saturday at 8:05 got the following warning lines every time I tried to do something in my application. While it seems that everything works, after a few days the system starts to decrease their performance and malfunction, so I want to know why it
    might happen these warnings.
    I have tried to find a solution to this problem in several places but I'm not succeeding. That's why I'm writing my problem here... 
    Hope somebody can help me!
    Thanks in advance and best regards!
    Cristian.

    I´m facing similar problem with Linux and SQL Server 2008 R2. I made the downgrade of JDK 1.6 from 27 to 26 (some people reporting errors when upgraded to jdk1.6_29 and rolling back is ok) but for me the error persists. At this moment we are testing with
    sqljdbc4.jar version 4.0 (released in 3/6/2012). The curious I have two equals Linux boxes and only one have presented connection reset errors.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Anywhere Access - CERTIFICATE NOT VALID OR PASSWORD INCORRECT

    Setting up Server Essentials 2012.  During the "Anywhere Access" wizard I followed a link to get an SSL for the company's URL that is directed at the server.  I chose one of the two options that was presented during setup and purchased a "SSL
    Cert for SSL Certificate - Comodo Essential" from Enom Inc.
    Once I got the certificate in email, and continued the wizard I get the following error:
    CERTIFICATE NOT VALID OR PASSWORD INCORRECT
    Either the certificate is not supported or the password is incorrect.  Please try again.
    I've tried everything I can to get it in the wizard to no avail.  If I manually push it into the certificate manager it accepts it there properly but the Essentials Dashboard still thinks it's no installed so I believe I have to complete this wizard.  I
    cannot find ANY support on this currently on the internet on searching.  Anyone able to help?
    (By chance the server is also unable to install two critical updates.  I am taking things one at a time in the order they come right now though.)
    KevenD.

    The PFX file is only allowed in the wizard if you are importing a previously created SSL.  Here's the steps that got me to the dead end I'm in:
    Step 1 - Setup process - Set up Anywhere Access
    Step 2 – It asks what domain name we have pointing to the server, configures the firewall routing services etc and then gets to the SSL portion which I will depict below.
    Step 3 – Domain Set up in the Anywhere Access wizard: Entering name of our domain to use.
    Step 4 – SSL Certificate set up.  I select “I want to purchase..”, clicked on the two links provided, decided on one from eNomCentral and made the purchase.
    Step 5 – Cert request is issued and a link to GoDaddy and eNomCentral are given.  It was eNomCentral which sold me on the Comodo SSL.
    Step 6 – Park and wait. 
    The next time I go into the wizard to continue (once the certificate was issued) I get the errors I earlier depicted from the wizard stating:
    CERTIFICATE NOT VALID OR PASSWORD INCORRECT
    Either the certificate is not supported or the password is incorrect.  Please try again.
    I get two methods of importing it, copy/paste or upload.  I've tried both methods and each generates a different error.

  • Trying to send pix in iPhoto and get message email server does not recognize username/password combination.

    apple message when trying to send an email " email does not recognize username/password.

    Go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, delete the email account and add it back. 
    The better solution, IMO, is to set Mail as iPhoto's email client in iiPhoto's General preference pane.  That gives you better access to your Contacts, a sent copy and templates similar to iPhoto's in the stationary section of Mail.

    I cannot email a photo from iphoto. A message comes up that says " email server did not recognize username / password combination ".  There does not seem to be a way from inside iphoto to fix that. Any suggestions ?

    Have you set Mail.app or iPhoto as Mail client in the iPhoto Preferences? Mail.app is working more reliable than iPhoto as mail client.

  • Apple ID, registered yesterday - never received a confirmation email but when try to sign in says username or pass not valid. Password /username reset doesnt work! When I try to re-register it says that my username is already in use! ?

    Hello!
    I tried to create an ID account a few hours ago using my current email address in order to use ibooks. I completed all stages and even provided my visa card - I received a message from my bank that 'my visa was authorized for an indicative amount Euro1.00 @ Apple' BUT I never received an email in order to verify my apple ID.
    Please note, at that moment of my registration there was something wrong with my internet connection and I not sure if the registration process was 100% completed. I then tried to sign in using my email address and it says that my username or password is not valid. I tried all procedures to reset password/username but it doesnt allow me to do anything - since it doesnt recognize my name or my date of birth/security question. Then I tried to create the ID again, doing the procedure from the beginning but then it says that my email account (username) is already in use. I am blocked here and cannot use my email to register! (I registered with my old email address so I can contact you here). Any advice? Thanks in advance.

    I think you should contact Apple support and explain the problem to them.  It's not unknown but it might have a security side to it.   Better safe than sorry.

    My child accidentally added heart symbol (♥) in username, and now I can not login into my macbook air as I can not type the ♥ symbol with keyboard. apple tech service said no such experience before.

    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select

    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:

    Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
