How to change password of sys user connected as sysdba?

How to change password of sys user connected as sysdba?
I have connected with user name sys as sysdba in oracle 9i with password oracle.
I want to change the password . I typed password and pressed entered. It asks me to type old password, then new password and retype the new password. When I press enter it gives error message "ERROR:
ORA-28008: invalid old password"
Password unchanged.
does anyone know about this...? how to change the password..?

You may be using operating system authentication to log in as sys with sysdba privileges.
By using password utility, you can change the password of sys user (which is in database) which is "change_on_install" when you create a database.
You can change this password.

    Two things. First, I'm not exactly sure what password you are trying to
    change. The LDAP server's password or a user's password in the LDAP
    server. Second, could you please post a stack trace.

    Hai,
    This condition based execution requires - javascript coding.
    In miscelleaneous tools bar, you have an option of SCRIPT_ITEM writer tool, drag the tool into your WAD layout, and select the properties , choose the editor option and paste your coding. that's it.
    Alternate option :
    in your web application design layout , you will fine XHTML coding editor , there you need to write coding and execute the same.
    Hope this will help to you.

  • Changing passwords of oracle users

    Dear all
    I wander is there any problem if changing password of oracle users SAPOWNER, system,sys . (I guess command for that is brconnect -u system/<password> -f chpass -o <sapowner> -p <password>
    ). What about sys and system. (I hope that after changing passwords the system will be functional)
    Which user is used when "sqlplus / as sysdba"
    thank you in advance

    Hello Jan,
    I wander is there any problem if changing password of oracle users SAPOWNER, system,sys
    Well we already discussed the SAPOWNER here: http://forums.sdn.sap.com/message.jspa?messageID=10814500#10814500
    If you change the password of SYSTEM or SYS there will be no problem at all. These users/password combination is not used in a SAP environment unless you explicitly specify the SYSTEM user and password in some BR*Tools calls like brconnect. If you just use the "/" default approach, the OS authentication mechanism (OSDBA) is used - so no issue there at all.
    @Orkun:
    This is not a user, but a role. So when you connect to the database by using "/as sysdba" you will be able to connect to the system by sysdba role not by a user.
    If you use this apporach you are connected with the user SYS - so you are using a user for sure (and btw. you can only logon with SYS by using SYSDBA role). The only difference between "sqlplus / as sysdba" and "sqlplus SYS as sysdba" is, that you are using the specified OSDBA group with the first approach (so no password is required).

    ps -ef | grep $ORACLE_SID | grep "LOCAL=NO" | awk '{print $2}' | wc -l
    Thanks!

  • SYS user connects at database level, is it correct?

    My senior colleague has given me following information about the sys user. I want to know, is it correct?
    Since SYS user connects at the database level, therefore, on killing the active session of the SYS user,only the current statement is cancelled. The database session does not disconnect. Instead it continues to run the remaining statements in the script file in case we are running a script file containing a lot of SQL statements.

Instead it continues to run the remaining statements in the script file in case we are running a script file containing a lot of SQL statements.Running a SQL script very likely means SQL*Plus is used. One of two types of Oracle sessions will be created via sqlplus. A dedicated session. Or a shared server session.
    A dedicated session can also be local (sqlplus connects "directly" to the dedicated server process), or remote (sqlplus connects via tcp/ip to the dedicated server process).
    A server session is usually "killed" using the alter system kill session command. Despite the differences between shared and dedicated server connections, the end result is the same. The session terminates abnormally (session UGA will be released, session will be cleaned up, rolled back, etc) - and the session ceases to exist.
    So irrespective of how that sqlplus session runs that script - the session, when killed, will cause a sqlplus failure. And no subsequent script commands would be executed by that Oracle session.
    What can happen is that sqlplus continues running, continues reading the script, and continues submitting commands to be executed. However, with the server session killed, there is no server process to service the commands submitted by the sqlplus client. In this case, sqlplus will throw the error "+SP2-0640: Not connected+" after each of the commands it tries to execute after the server session was killed.
    The only time when sqlplus will be able to continue is when the session is not killed, but interrupted. The Oracle Call Interface (OCI) supports a OCIBreak() call - allowing the client to interrupt-and-abort the request that its server session is currently executing.
    For example, sqlplus sends a OCIBreak() while it waits for a server response (e.g. waiting for the answer to a SQL select query), when the user presses Ctrl-Break to abort that request.
    In this case, the session still exists - and the client can issue a new request that the session will service. But an OCIBreak() cannot be triggered (to my knowledge) externally from another Oracle session. You need to send the client process a "break request" (like a Ctrl-Break keystroke) in order to trigger that client process to make an OCIBreak() call to Oracle and interrupt its server process.
