Getting ORA-01017: invalid username/password error only with specific tools

Hi,
I am a Junior DBA still getting familiar with Oracle. I am having trouble accessing one of my databases through both TOAD and SQLDetective tools. When I try to log in to my database using these tools, I get the error:
ORA - 01017: invalid username/password; login denied
Even though the password and username is correct.
I can successfully login through other tools like SQLTools and through SQL Plus. I have searched this issue and I have seen people with the same problems but I couldnt find a solution. The weird thing is, I can use TOAD and SQLDetective to login to other databases without any issues. It seems to be this one specific database.
My database is an 11g database on a linux box. I have 9i and 10g clients installed on my machine. The all my apps use the tnsnames from the 9i home on my machine.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Rgs,
Rob

Hello, if it is 11g, look at the parameter sec_case_sensitive_logon. This parameter defaults to true, which makes the password case sensitive. Some tools/apps do a UPPER or LOWER on the password and so this may the reason for the error

    Hi all
    I need your kind help.
    I have installed Oracle Audit Vault Server  Release 10.2.3.2 in Linux system and collection agent in Windows system. Adding and starting DBAUD collector went fine however  adding REDO collector return back errors when executing avorcldb add_collector command as follow

    I have searched the forum to my level best without clear solution
    Regards

    Hi gurus
    I don't believe if this is missing solution from oracle community. I have decided to installed the collction agent and source database in linux system, so now both auditt vault server and collction agent are running in Linux system (but separately)
    I am wondering, avorcldb add_collector -srcname ORCL -agentname avagent01 -colltype DBAUD and  avorcldb add_collector -srcname ORCL -agentname avagent01 -colltype OSAUD -orclhome /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1 are working fine and  I am able to start these collectors
    The  avorcldb verify -src Lugaosrv:1521:ORCL.LUGAOSRV -colltype ALL command also return good results
    [oracle@avsrv ~]$ avorcldb verify -src Lugaosrv:1521:ORCL.LUGAOSRV -colltype ALL
    Enter Source user name: srcuser_ora01
    Enter Source password:          
    source ORCL.LUGAOSRV verified for OS File Audit Collector collector
    source ORCL.LUGAOSRV verified for Aud$/FGA_LOG$ Audit Collector collector
    source ORCL.LUGAOSRV verified for REDO Log Audit Collector collector
    [oracle@avsrv ~]$
    The problem still I am facing is when attempting to add REDO collector. In fact the collector is added successful and i can see it even on EM console.
    [oracle@avsrv ~]$ avorcldb add_collector -srcname ORCL -agentname avagent01 -colltype REDO -av Lugaosrv:1521:ORCL.LUGAOSRV
    source ORCL verified for REDO Log Audit Collector collector
    Adding collector...
    Collector added successfully.
    remember the following information for use in avctl
    Collector name (collname): REDO_Collector
    initializing REDO Collector
    ERROR: could not get AV source user connection using jdbc:oracle:oci:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=Lugaosrv)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=ORCL.LUGAOSRV)))

  • Deployment error: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

    Hi,
    I created a new target schema against an existing runtime owner user id and runtime access user id.
    But deploying the mapping now gives error as follows:
    <<ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied>>
    Can you please guide where the problem is?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Lenin

    Hi,
    Just to add some more informations about this topic. I created one extra target schema for the same runtime user id/runtime access user. And then tried to deploy the mapping and got the above error. And again, I removed the older target schema by using "OWB Runtime Assistant". And then tried to deploy mapping again and got the same error again.
    Can you please help me out in this case?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Lenin

  • ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied error...Help Please!!!

    when I log into either a Unix server or a windows server, I use the same account GILLR, and as such I created an account in the DB as OPS$GILLR and issued the follwing command:
    CREATE USER OPS$GILLR IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY DEFAULT
    GRANT CREATE SESSION TO "GILLR"
    then when I run:

    Now I followed steps that were provided to me from the ASKTOM site and I even found some solutions to this error, but nothing worked. Does anyone know why I can not use OS_AUTH on any of the servers here?

    WOW!!!!! Adding in the DOMAIN into the OPS$DOMAIN\USER worked....Thanks for your help. Now I have one other question. You stated "ypur client computer and Oracle server computer should be in the same domain" What is I have users in Domain X and some users in Domain Y. When they hit some website, they have the option to select the Domain and enter their credentials. If the user has the ability to select the domain then does it really matter if the client machine is on the same domain as the DB server. I mean, the user maybe from Domain X but the DB server might be on Domain Z. The client machine and web server might be both Windows server, but when the webb app makes a call to the DB using proxxy connection, the proxxy account will take the user OPS$DOMAIN'X'\USER and make a call to the DB. How can I handle this problem?

    4 using 'DEV';create DATABASE LINK USING <connect-string>
    your sid is DEVDB so create dblink using oracle_sid
    If you specify only the database name, then Oracle Database implicitly appends the database domain to the connect string to create a complete service name. Therefore, if the database domain of the remote database is different from that of the current database, then you must specify the complete service name.

  • ORA-01017: invalid username/password after DB copy

    I am trying in my DR server. i am getting the following error ORA-01017: invalid username/password.
    I have install SAP 4.7, windows 2000 adv , Oracle 9.2 (same as my Productin). then copied only the control files and the data files to the new location. both systems are the same the only diffreance is the production system is in domain and DR is not on the Domain
    I cannot put the DR in domain as the name, SID, Noumber are the same as production. how can change this and get the DR server up and working ?
    Is there a better way for this ?

    Hi Rehan,
    If everything is identical on both servers, and the only difference is in the domain, then you are probably hitting an OPS$ issue.
    The OPS$ usernames in the DB should look like
      - In the primary host (included in the domain)
         OPS$DOMAIN\<SID>ADM
         OPS$DOMAIN\SAPSERVICE<SID>
      - In the DR host (out of the domain)
         OPS$<SID>ADM
         OPS$SAPSERVICE<SID>
    I assume the OS users (sidadm and sapservicesid) are also identical on both hosts.
    Good luck
    Alfonso

    variable uname has valid username that is 'scott' and variable upwd as valid password ie 'tiger' both entered by the user.
    with the same username and password i am able to connect to the database from the command prompt.
    but when i tried using odbc through ASP(javascript) i am getting above error.
    and one more thing if i mention username and password directly in UID and PWD it works but when i pass it through variables it wont work.
    since variables have username and password it has to take from it directly...........manually i cant give,dynamically it has to take.
    plz help me out....how i can pass the parameter to that UID and PWD.
    conn.Open = "Driver={Oracle in OraDb10g_home1};DBQ=tcp;UID='uname';PWD='upwd';";
    help plz

    conn.Open = "Driver={Oracle in OraDb10g_home1};DBQ=tcp;UID=scott;PWD=tiger;"; --- works

  • "ORA-01017 invalid username/password: logon" --- Help Please !!!

    Hello Peter,
    Sorry for sending an unexpected mail.
    I am stuck and really want your help. I have seen your email address on OTM website.
    Aim: To run the JAVA code samples provided in Oracle 9i DATA MINING suite
    on windows 2000.
    I have installed Oracle 9i enterprise edition and
    also Oracle 9i Data mining (ODM).
    I have lot of problems in username/password authentication.
    everytime I run the ODM setup, irrespective of the default
    name/password
    which is ODM/odmpw it says "ORA-01017 invalid username/password: logon"
    I was just working on the Oracle 9i DataMining installation and found something really interesting
    I was wondering if you can solve this:
    1. I created user SCOTT and ODM using SQL Plus queries by logging system/manager.
    and when I typed "select username from dba_names" it gave me ODM and SCOTT as
    users and hence I was happy.
    2. Then I uninstalled DATA MINING suite and reinstall it thinking this time it should
    get ODM/odmpw as username and password as and DBA user/password being
    system/manager. When uninstalling DATA MINING suite ODM user gets dropped
    and when reinstalling ODM suite, it never make ODM user back in Oracle 9i database.
    Hence it is not finding ODM user anymore and hence "ORA-01017 invalid username/password: logon"
    error occurs.
    Now can you tell me what can be done in order to make the ODM recreate when installing
    DATA MINING suite.
    Please reply me as I am badly stuck.
    I at least know why problem is occurring now looking for solution.
    Thanks

  • ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied quality system refresh from production

    Dear All;
    I am in the post activities of SAP system refresh.
    I restored the system using brtools successfully as you can see below:
    then I went with the rest of the steps based on sap recomendations, and reached to SAP sql queries:
    CREATE USER "OPS$<DOMAIN>\<SID>ADM" DEFAULT TABLESPACE SYSTEM TEMPORARY TABLESPACE PSAPTEMP IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY;
    CREATE USER "OPS$<DOMAIN>\SAPSERVICE<SID>" DEFAULT TABLESPACE SYSTEM TEMPORARY TABLESPACE PSAPTEMP IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLY;
    GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE, SAPDBA TO "OPS$<DOMAIN>\<SID>ADM";
    GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE, SAPDBA TO "OPS$<DOMAIN>\SAPSERVICE<SID>";
    CREATE TABLE "OPS$<DOMAIN>\<SID>ADM".SAPUSER (USERID VARCHAR2(256), PASSWD VARCHAR2(256));
    INSERT INTO "OPS$<DOMAIN>\<SID>ADM".SAPUSER VALUES ('SAPSR3', '<Password>');
    CREATE SYNONYM "OPS$<DOMAIN>\SAPSERVICE<SID>".SAPUSER FOR "OPS$<DOMAIN>\<SID>ADM".SAPUSER;
    CONNECT /
    GRANT SELECT, UPDATE ON "OPS$<DOMAIN>\<SID>ADM".SAPUSER TO "OPS$<DOMAIN>\SAPSERVICE<SID>";
    CONNECT /as sysdba
    GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE TO "OPS$<DOMAIN>\SAPSERVICE<SID>";
    GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE TO "OPS$<DOMAIN>\<SID>ADM";
    I checked if all users are on opened state using select USERNAME,ACCOUNT_STATUS from dba_users;
    The database is running file, and it is opened, but when I run R3trans -d it gives me RC 12 and i get this error:
    *** ERROR => CONNECT failed with sql error '1017'
    set_ocica() -> SQL error code 1017
    -->oci_get_errmsg (con=0, rc=1017)

    ***LOG BY2=>sql error 1017   performing CON
    ***LOG BY0=>ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
    I used brconnect -u / -f chpass -o PSAPSR3 -p sap so i can reset the password, but still I am getting the same invalid username or password error.
    I checked the listener status, and it is running.
    Kindly let me know how I can fix my error

    Password has been changed for the AR user using FNDCPASS , but when we restart the patch , we still get the same error . Please suggest
    Can you connect via sqlplus using the new password? -- sqlplus ar/<ar new password>
    If yes, then run the script that failed manually via sqlplus and make sure it runs successfully then skip the failed worker via adctrl.
    Thanks,

    Thanks for your response. I read the documents that you recommended. This looks like the same issue described in bug 6650342 which was fixed in v. 2.08 when 10g iAS was still being used. Could the same thing be happening with EPG? The MW account got locked after I retried the operation multiple times. The runtime details shows '$EOF_COMMON/buildftp.sh' as the script being run.
    Here is the error message that I received:

    Edited by: SSNair on Jun 17, 2011 5:43 AMHere's your problem:
    -bash-3.00$ sqlplus IRES_USER/U9$bvs#ir@DBBecaue of the dollar-sign, The shell is trying to expand the environment variable $bvs#ir@DB
    Of course you have no environment variable by that name so what gets passed to sqlplus is not "IRES_USER/U9$bvs#ir@DB", but rather "IRES_USER/U9"
    In your first test, you didn't pass the password on the command line, so the shell didn't get a chance to intercept it.
    You can have a similar issue if you have a '@' in your password
    oracle> sqlplus scott/P@ssword@orclTns will catch that first "@" as the delimiter to the tns string, and come up with something that cant' be resolved.
