Create username and password

Hello,
I just finished downloading and installing Oracle 10g and I tried to log into PL/SQL but couldn't. Then I went into the Database Configuration Assistant and clicked on "Configure Database Options" in hopes I could create or reset a password here, but I got the following error:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
Does anyone know where I can create a username and password for the database that I've created?
Thanks,
Peter

Hi Nicolas,
I just checked, and next to my name under Control Panel --> User Accounts it says "Computer Administrator". So why doesn't the connect /as sysdba command work?
My init.ora file is located here:
D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\admin\UserDB\pfile\init.ora.8112005184016
I went to my Windows prompt like you said. Do I have to put D: first or is C: OK?
Then I typed in the following:
set *.remote_login_passwordfile='EXCLUSIVE' -- into D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\admin\UserDB\pfile\init.ora.8112005184016
and all it does is show the D: prompt again. Did it work?
Maybe it's supposed to point to another location. I noticed there's also an init.ora file in:
D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\admin\UserDB\pfile
So which one should I use?
Then I searched my computer for sqlnet.ora and found it in:
D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\ADMIN
So I went to the Windows command prompt like you said and typed in the following:
set SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=(NTS) -- into D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\sqlnet.ora
and then it shows the D: prompt again. Did it work? Am I supposed to type in everything as shown above, including the two dashes and everything that follows?
Anyway, then I went to the command prompt and typed in the following:
sqlplus /nolog and it gave me the sqlplus prompt.
So then I typed in the following:
connect /as sysdba
and it said "insufficient privileges"
Is that what I'm supposed to do?
Thanks,
Peter

  • Creating Username and Password

    Starting the HTMLDB for the first time, it asks me for username and password. Where do you configure this information?

    Go to http://host:7777/pls/htmldb/htmldb_admin
    then login with ADMIN and the password that you put in the Configuration Assistant at install time...
    There you can create a workspace to start your apps!

  • How to pass username and password with the portal url

    i want to access portal from my web site. i have created username and password fields in my web page. when submited , my portal page should open. so how to pass username and password with the portal url.

    This is not straightforward; but it is doable.
    First tell us about your portal version; portal 10.1.4 has a slightly different method of doing it and the pre-10g portals were completely different animals.
    And if you are in AS Rel 2, then the most important document for you would probably be the following:
    [Creating Deployment Specific Pages| http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/idmanage.1012/b14078/custom.htm#i1015535]
    You might want to use it in conjunction with some metalink notes about your portal version and such a login page.
    hope that helps!

    I have a request from a cutomer to run a script to create multiple username and password on ACS5.3 Appliance. Does anyone has any suggestion on how to go about this?

    Have you tried using the import option on the ACS? You can put all your accounts in a csv file and upload it into the ASA.

    If that doesnt work you can use the REST Web Services in ACS also:

  • Reporting Services username and password prompting

    We have several branch office locations and one reporting services server. All of the branch office locations can access the reporting services server, but we have one location for the passed week, each time they make a connection to this server, it prompts
    them for a username and password and will not allow them to connect even if the correct username and password is correct.
    I have tried adding the server to the IE intranet/trusted site list. Set IE security on all zones to automatically logon with current username and password.
    What is strange is that this is the only branch office site that is having this issue. It is almost like kerberos is broken for this site location only.
    DOes anyone has any suggestions what could be causing this problem for all computers in this one location. Nothing has changed on their local servers nor have we pushed any updates to the machines.

    Hi bubba1984,
    As per my understanding, I think this issue is caused by Kerberos authentication. Kerberos is an authentication protocol that allows clients that create authentication tokens to associate a specific destination to that token. In the failure case, there is
    a mismatch between the destination specified in the token and the report server process configuration. Due to this mismatch, the underlying Kerberos authentication scheme supported by Windows prevents report server from authenticating the user.
    To fix this issue, please try to remove RSWindowsNegotiate and ensure RSWindowsNTLM is specified in the rsreportserver.config file. For more details, please take the following article as reference:

  • Single sign-on and different usernames and passwords

    Hello,
    I am building a Portal with WLPS 3.5 and WLS 6.0. I tried to get
    information about the background of single sign-on.
    I understand, that I need a Realm (i.e. LDAP Realm) to authenticate the
    user for the first login to the portal (with username and password).
    Now I would like to integrate my webmail-programm (to get emails from
    Lotus Notes via Internet) as a portlet.
    For my understanding the user has to authorizate to get access to webmail.
    Therefore I create a ACL for webmail and this ACL is assigned to my
    security Realm.
    I would like the portlet to show after login the number of mails for the
    specific user. But where are the username and password for webmail stored
    and how are they received and forwarded?
    I understand that my ACL included all users that have access to webmail
    (i.e. all users). But I only want emails for the specific user.
    Does WLS get all usernames and passwords while the first login? Do I have to
    implement a algorithmen to get the specific username and password for the
    requested resource in my portlet?
    Has anyone solved a similar problem or can tell me where I can get more
    information. I read the WebLogic Security document but I cant find a
    answer to my questions.
    Thanks
    Lydia

    Lydia,
    I'm not an expert in this area, but I can give you a start.
    As for single sign-on, there are different levels. For single sign-on across web-apps,
    the servlet spec requires this (section 12.6 of th 2.3 spec) and therefore Weblogic
    does this.
    What you are talking about is single sign-on across back-end applications through
    a web-app. BEA has partnered with Securant (just acquired by RSA) to provide this
    kind of functionality. Browse to http://www.rsasecurity.com/products/ and look
    at the ClearTrust product. BEA has also partnered with Netegrity (www.netegrity.com)
    with their SiteMinder product. Neither is included in the Weblogic license. I'm
    sure either vendor would be excited to explain how their product will solve your
    problem if you give them a call.
    As for where the username and passwords are stored, that is up to the realm. If
    you are using the default WLPS RDBMSRealm, the username and encrypted password
    are stored in the WLCS_USER table. If you are using LDAPRealm, they are stored
    in your LDAP server.
    Hope this was useful!

  • I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

  • Can I use the same icloud username and password for multiple phones?

    I have 6 iphones and wanted to use Apple Configurator to install the same apps on all 6 phones.  Some of the apps though, also require further installation by email.  Can I use the same iCloud username and password for all 6 phones to download the apps and also to configure email or do I need to create 6 different Apple IDs?

    If different people will be using these phones, you might be better off using the same Apple ID for the iTunes content...apps, music, etc. on each of these devices, but create different ID's for iCloud on each device. You can use one ID for the iTunes/App store, & a different ID for iCloud. That way, messages, notes, contacts, calendars, etc will be kept separate on each device.

  • How to use cfmail without specifying username and password??

    i am creating a page where, at the end a e-mail has to be sent from <[email protected]> to <[email protected]>
    i am connecting with the univ server from the cf server to test whether the e-mails are delivered.
    the e-mails are sent only if i mention the <Username> and <Password> fields belonging to the <[email protected]>
    for my test case i used my own id and the if i set the username and pwd, the e mails are sent, otherwise the emails are not getting delivered.
    can someone suggest why this is happening and i have to make sure that at the end of launching the site, i dont have to get the username and password, because i will not be given access to it as a developer.

  • Usernames and passwords

    Hey I have been really wanting to add an interface were users can create multiple usernames and passwords on my iweb page instead of the password protect feature that only allows 1 username and pass. is this possible?

    You create .htaccess with a text edit application. It's a file with rules for the folder you place it in your server. First off you need to create the file. Since files that start with a "." (period) are hidden OS files in OSX they can not be created in Text Edit. I use TextWrangler to create a text file and save as .htaccess to the Desktop which can then be uploaded to a folder on your host to create rules for the directory its placed in.
    After the file has been saved as .htaccess you will not see it on your Desktop since files that begin with "." are hidden by default in OSX. You can create an automator workflow finder action that uses terminal to display and hide files that begin with "." look here for more info.
    Then check out some different codes you can insert into the .htaccess file. Usually searching Google for desired_feature .htaccess will find what you're looking for. For instance if you search for password protection .htaccess like this then you can find the code and method for creating a password-protected site using .htaccess
    I've never used .htaccess for iDisk and can't say for sure if it's supported for iDisk - EDIT: actually I just tried and it isn't. I should've known this already. In which case if you're using MobileMe you're left at the mercy of their available features. Sorry, man. Time to switch hosts which allow for more dynamic features?
    So now the drumroll question... Where are you hosting your site? You hinted MobileMe but it's not certain. Where you host depends on what programming features, if any, are available.

  • How do you make connection password use single username and password in P/S

    Hi
    I have installed OBIEE as a standalone on a Windows 2003 server using OC4J and AUTHENTICATION_TYPE = BYPASS_NQS.
    I have created a repository using an ODBC connection to a Netezza database. The implementation we have is that we use a single username and password (readonly) to the database.
    I have created the physical, business and presentation layers and the repository is consistent and loadas up into the Presentation Server.
    When I login into presentation server as say "Administrator", the PS passes the username/password of "Administrator" instead of the username and password setup in the connection pool.
    The error is;
    -------------------- Query Status: Query Failed: [nQSError: 16001] ODBC error state: HY000 code: 108 message: Password authentication failed for user 'ADMINISTRATOR'.
    When I create a user with the same username and password as the one used in the connection pool, the requests work. Although thisd lets me work at the moment, it is not a viable solution going forward.
    Please can you advise what I need to setup for this to work correctly for me ie., make PS substitute the correct username password when connecting to the ODBC defined in the connection pool?
    Thanks in advance.
    Danish.

    Apologies if I've misunderstood, but are you trying to implement anything than standard practise, namely:
    1) Using the OBIEE security model to authenticate and log in (i.e. when you log in to Answers you are entering a username as defined in the RPD)
    2) Using a fixed username & password as defined on the database to authenticate & authorise when you read data for your reports?
    If you use BYPASS_NQS then BI Server will take your login details when you login to Answers (Presentation Server) and pass them through to the database and see if they're valid. This is what's happening when you got the error that you initially posted. With setting at BYPASS_NQS try logging into Answers with the database username&password, I bet it will work.
    If you use NQS (the default) then it checks the Answers login against users defined in the RPD, so the reason you couldn't login when you changed it to NQS is that the user/pw you logged in with didn't match what's defined in the RPD.
    Try this:
    1. Create a new user & pw in the RPD, for argument's sake call it TestRPDUser with the same pw
    2. Set authentication to NQS and restart you BI Server
    3. Log in to Answers as TestRPDUser - does it work?
