Host preferred credentials suddenly not working

Windows 11GR2 on Windows 2008 64 bit
For some reason I am getting failures in dbconsole, I double check all my host credentials etc., part of dba groups, part of log on as a batch job etc. are all ok.
Everything was working fine.
Now I try to clone this database (or do anything involving jobs) to a test database on same server and I get errors. I go to database preferred credentials and enter in domain\username / password and get errors, one will say "Connection to servername.domain as user domain\user failed. Next time I will get an error saying internal error check logfile - WHICH LOGFILE?
Everything was working fine until recently, then just stopped. Oracles solution is to drop and recreate entire repository, but I can't take the downtime to put database in quiesce mode.
<rant>Oracle, do us a favor, +please put fully functional 9i version of OEM back as an option!+ There is nothing I dislike more that spending HOURS AND HOURS trying to debug a bloody TOOL that's supposed to make "database administration" so easy! I spend far more time working on this piece of crap user interface than I do on the database.. </end rant>
I feel better (almost)

Looked at the various log and trc files, nothing that I can see helps me. Also, in my OP I forgot to mention that in the services screen it shows neither databases dbconsole service as running, yet I can open dbconsole for either of them, and everything works except submitting jobs.
emca status dbconsole command show this:
C:\$orascripts>emctl status dbconsole

  • Unable to set Host Preferred Credentials in OEM

    Hi Experts,
    I installed Oracle 10g R2 on on windows machine (XP Professional SP2).
    Everything is OK except I can't set Host Preferred Credentials.
    I logged in Windows using Windows Domain account, connected EM DB console as sysdba.
    I used domain user name to set Host Credentials and get the error:
    Connection to "mysystemname" as user xxxx failed: ERROR: Wrong password for user
    I also added the user to "Log on as a batch job" under Local policies.
    Then I set oracle as Host Credential, still get the same error.
    Please help me how should I set the Host Credentials for Oracle 10g on Windows?
    Thanks in advance

    The keyword here is domain user, so not local user.
    Normally Oracle runs using a local account, and you need that local account to connect.
    You can try to make sure the domain account is a member of the local ora_dba group.
    If that doesn't work, you probably need to start the Oracle service using a domain administrator account.

  • 10g host preferred credentials, wrong password

    I'm getting an error message trying to set the host preferred credentials in Enterprise Manager 10g:
    "Connection to host hostname.changedthis.com as user landersd failed: ERROR: Wrong password for user"
    I've triple-checked the password, and tried several variations on the username, but I can't seem to get it to work. When I look at a connected session (osuser in V$SESSION), the username comes up as IPS\landersd, but that username doesn't work either. Is there a way to specify the username that I'm not doing correctly? I also checked the privileges and the user has 'logon as batch job' privileges, and is part of the ORA_DBA group. What am I missing?

    Windows only, I assume.
    The format of the data to be entered in the Username fields on the Credentials pages is "Domain\Username". This setting is only accepted when the user has the "Log on as a batch job" right assigned.
    Select the "Administrative Tools" control panel. Then "Local Security Policy". Expand "Local Policies", select "User Rights Assignment". Finally add the User to "Logon as a Batch Job" local security setting.

  • Oracle 10g EM DB console Host Preferred Credentials for Windows

    Hello:
    I install Oracle 10g R2 on on windows machine (XP Professional SP2).
    Everything is OK except I can't set Host Preferred Credentials.
    I logged in Windows using Windows Domain account, connected EM DB console as sysdba.
    I used domain user name to set Host Credentials and get the error:
    Connection to xxxx as user Domain\user failed: IOException in sending Request :: Connection refused: connect
    I created a loal user oracle, added it to ORA_DBA group, add it to "Act as part of the operating system" and "Log on as a batch job" under Local policies.
    Then I set oracle as Host Credential, still get the same error.
    Can any one tell me how should I set the Host Credentials for Oracle 10g on Windows?
    Thanks for any help.

    If it is the new DST that cause it, how can I solve it?
    I just download Oracle 10g for test, and I don't have access to metalink. Is there any place else that I can get the Patches? or is there any other way to solve it?
    Thanks again.

  • Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working. I can login to my account but as soon as I do that the screen goes completely white. I can change the volume and I have a mouse but that is it. I've tried safe starting my computer and that doesn't work.

    Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working past the login page. A white screen comes up that I cannot get rid of. I attempted a safe start up and that failed as well. It's a white screen where I have a mouse and when I click the volume buttons I can hear it working but nothing else just white. Please help.

    Something you can try is resetting it all Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Or go to Settings > Store &amp; sign out &amp; log back in. Another thing you can do is restore your ipod. This has happened to me but the only thing i did was that i created a new account but try doing the things above i just told you. :)

  • Why does Acrobat suddenly not work on my Mac (won't open pdf files from a web page), yet I can open them from my iPhone? Everything worked fine yesteray.

    Hello:
    I have a Mac running OS 10.8.5 and I use Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader. Today for some reason, any time I try and access a pdf file from a web page, it won't open. I get a blank window. PDF files already on my computer open fine and I can create PDF files from Word docs, but I can't download or view any pdf file from any web page. Strangely, PDF files on web pages open just fine on my iPhone.
    I checked that both my copy of Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader are up-to-date. They are.
    I checked that my copy of Firefox is up-to-date. It is. And nothing changed with Firefox within the last 24 hours.
    I am a humble computer end-user. I am baffled as to why this would suddenly not work. I have not changed any settings, etc. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.
    I checked your instructions you sent and as far as I can tell all of my settings, etc for Firefox (plugin updates and preferences) are correct but I am having the same problem.
    However, everything works in Safari. I don't have time to attempt to diagnose why Firefox no longer works. I will just switch to Safari.
    Many thanks.

  • ITunes on my iPhone 5 is suddenly not working.

    iTunes on my iPhone 5 is suddenly not working. Updated to IOS8.0 (not running 8.0.1) a few days go but was fine up until today. Now, when attempting to play a list of songs (artist, playlist or album) it rapidly shuffles through all of them without playing and then it displays a red square next to songs and won't play them at all. It seems to sync with my MBP but then new playlists I've created don't appear on the iPhone even though iTunes on the MBP has them appearing when I click the "on my iPhone tab. Tried the obvious quit and restart approach. No effect. Does anyone have any ideas?

    It's not a hardware problem. The same exact thing just happened to me. My husband reset all settings, not erase all content and settings, after the phone started back up, everything worked like normal again. You just have to redo your settings.
    General>Reset>Reset all settings
    Hope this helps you!

  • IChat video suddenly not working

    Can anyone help? I'm using iChat 4.0.8 on an almost brand new MacBook Pro. The video worked perfectly fine with my parents, and then suddenly stopped working when we moved. We're still using a wireless connection with an airport extreme. Funny thing is, the video works fine with my husband's MacBook Pro, and my brother who is in California. Why would it suddenly not work with my parents when computers haven't changed?
    please help!

    Did the Modem change ?

  • Apple TV suddenly not working

    My Apple TV is suddenly not working. I have tried the trouble shooting suggestions of restarting, upgrading the system, checking everything etc,  but to no avail. When I do a system test, all is ok, but I just cannot download /view my purchase - I get a constant 'ready in one minute' message with a wait symbol. There doesn't seem to be an issue with movies I have already purchased. I tried apple online support and a 'helpful support' person didn't respond to my query in 'under 2minutes' - or at all for that matter. Of course no problem with the billing - my account hash been charged for a movie I can't watch. All very frustrating! We have had Apple TV for over 18 months with no problems.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    So is it just one movie.

  • AppleTv2:  HDCP suddenly not working on netflix after update

    I have had a working AppleTV2 for about a year and have been using netflix to stream movies.  After most recent update I can no longer stream due to HDCP error.  There are been no changes to the hardware (cables, TV, power, etc.)  This can only point to the update.  I tried to do a restore from Mac to the most recent update.  I took it into the genius bar and they tried to do the same thing.  No change, they only offer the $69 Service replacement.  I have tried changing the outputs, the hdmi cable and powering up in a certain manner.  None of these work?  Why is this suddenly not working?
    Thanks for any help.

    Interesting (albeit, odd) addition to this issue --
    on my work system (dual G5, decked out, 23" Cinema), the same issue started to happen after the QT upgrade... however in my situation, the movie would load, but then just sit there, frozen.
    The first time I saw this, I started to move my mouse across the web page, and noticed that every time the pointer would roll over a URL link or any other rollover type of object within the browser window (e.g., a link or even a tab or bookmark shortcut in the Safari toolbar) the movie would suddenly start and stop, but just for a fraction of a second. But yet, if I just leave my mouse sitting on top of the URL or rollover object, it does nothing. It appears to be directly related to the action of roll-on or roll-out from other objects on the page, or within the overall window.
    So basically, if I take my mouse and move it ridiculously fast back and forth over any one of these rollover items, the movie will play for a fraction of a second each time the pointer passes over the object and makes it highlight... something to the effect of watching a flip-book animation that stutters along.
    Very bizarre -- not sure what happened with the update, but hoping that there is a patch released soon. It would appear that it's conflicting with other objects within the window, or it's waiting for some action on another rollover-type of item that is loaded within the overall window.

  • Windows reports that the "USB-IF xHCI USB Host Controller" device is not working properly.

    I have been receiving the following error and instructions to fix it for a long time now, prior to updating to Windows 8.1:
    A device is not working properly
    Windows reports that the "USB-IF xHCI USB Host Controller" device is not working properly.
     Recommended solution to the problemUse Windows Update to check whether new device drivers are available. Proceed as follows:
    Open Device Manager
    Search in the device manager for the device whose driver you would like to update and double-click on the device name. You may first have to enable the "Show hidden devices" entry in the "View" menu.
    Switch to the Driver tab, click Update driver and follow the instructions
    When I follow the instructions and try to update the driver, I am told "The best driver software for your device is already installed."
    How do I update the driver to stop receiving the error?

  • Skype number is suddenly not working for me and my...

    Skype number is suddenly not working for me and my colleagues to RECEIVE outside calls.  Any ideas?
    When I try to call my skype from my cell, it doesnt ring on either end.  It appears connected on the cell phone since the counter clock for the call is increasing, but it doesnt ring or connect.
    This is the same for me and at least 2 of my colleagues.  It was working all day, till suddenly it did not.
    When outside people call, it just gives us a missed call or voicemail email, but does not show a missed call on our skype.
    When I call an outside number from skype, it connects.
    Thanks for any help ASAP!

    I think this might have been happening to me earlier.  If you wait like 30 seconds when you called a machine said "All circuits are busy. da da da".  I was looking for an answer and google only brought stuff from like 2010.  It's working now after an hour or so.
    Sucks cause I use skype for work and was desperate to find a quick reponse but couldn't.
