Getting invalid username/ password when trying to change expired password

Question

I am using Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production.
I created a user with password expire option and gave create session grant. When I tried to connect with the user it gives me password expired message as expected but when I try to put new password it gives me invalid username/password as show below. I have tried many times and made sure new password and retype new password are same and long enough.
Could anyone please advice what am I missing?
SQL> conn schu/xxx@abc
ERROR:
ORA-28001: the password has expired
Changing password for schu
New password: ********
Retype new password: ********
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
Password unchanged

It works that way but I need to use password expire option.
I see the words, but do not understand what they/you mean.The code you asked me to run work perfectly but I am getting ORA-01017 when I use password expire option.
With your code if I do
alter user schu password expire.
It will ask me to enter new password and verify password after which I am getting
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon deniedI am not sure what you are doing & doing wrong; but it works OK for me.
