Login as SYSDBA in WindowsXP

I installed Oracle 10G R2 Database in my Windows XP Professional. I have
succeeded in connecting to Database Control to orcl(default) database
using SYS user id with Password 123456. When I try to connect to
iSqlplus using the same user id SYS and Password 123456 the oracle
reject me. I have no idea. When I try to create new user, it only can
log in as Normal, not SYSDBA so cannot create TABLE in the database.
can anyone help me
thanks
Henry

it only can log in as Normal, not SYSDBA so cannot create TABLE in the database.You should never create tables while connected as sysdba : it means that you are SYS user, the dictionary owner. Tables, and any other objects should be created as "normal" user.
To connect as sysdba using iSql*Plus you need some more configuration. See http://www.oracle.com/technology/support/tech/sql_plus/htdocs/faq101.html#A5010

Error while login as sysdba for creating a new db

Hi DBAs,
i need to create a new database base, so trying to login as sysdba after exporting <ORACLE_SID> and <ORACLE_HOME> and getting the following error, need your help urgently.
SQL> conn / as sysdba

I am not very sure about the error but it seems to some permission related error on oracle binaries. Can you check those permissions.
Have you created pwd file for db ?
Cheers

Could not login as sysdba after changing oracle sid

I am using Oracle 10g on Windows. I am getting errors while performing cloning of database from cold backup ( just for leaning purpose).
The problem is that when i set the ORACLE_SID=ORCL, then i can get login as sysdba but when i change the ORACLE_SID=clone, i get following error:
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
Also, I have created the password file using the following command:
orapwd file=D:\ORACLE\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\PWDclone.ora password=xxxx

Login as sysdba problem...

Hi,
I've created my own database to make tests on Oracle and directly after that I've changed the passwords for all the users (sys and system users included).
When I try to login without the sysdba role, Oracle applies the password verification fine.
The problem is when I try to login as sysdba:
$> sqlplus 'sys as sysdba'
I can enter whatever password I want and I'm connected !!!
And it's the same if first I type:
$> sqlplus /NOLOG

Could someone help me to find where It comes from and how I do solve this security hole...
Thanks in advance

What's the OS? Are you signed on to the OS as a user in > the DBA group?I'm using a Debian 3.0 (Woody) operating system with a Linux 2.4.18 kernel
I've got only one user which is a member of the DBA group and what I experienced, It's true, was only when I was logged as this user...
Does it means that when a user is a member of the DBA group on the operating system, even if the remote_os_authent parameter is set to false, he can login with sys as sysdba as he wants trough sqlplus ?

Login as sysdba for patch R12 problem

Hi,
I am trying to apply the patch 12.0.3 for R12.
On of the items is to run a script under a SYSDBA user, however I am not able to login as Sysdba, also not the sys user.
The scripts :
SQL> select * from v$pwfile_users;
no rows selected
Seems that my passwordfile is missing ?
Running orapwd gives me the following result :
[root@linux12 bin]# ./orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapw password=manager entries=30
Unable to find error file.
Anybody can help me ?

Issue encountered when Login as sysdba role using Thin Oracle JDBC Driver

Hello all,
we are now considering to use Thin oracle JDBC driver to create database in our project, but we met one issue when we tried to connect to oracle as sysdba role using Thin driver, and it throws java.sql.SQLException: Io Exception: SO Exception was generated, I have found some tips on oracle jdbc website and it says :
How do I connect as SYSDBA or SYSOPER?
The only way to do this is to use the Properties object when connecting, rather than specifying the username and password as strings. Put the username into the "user" property, and the password into the "password" property. Then, put the mode into the "internal_logon" property. Something like the following:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("user", "scott");
props.put("password", "tiger");
props.put("internal_logon", "sysoper");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection (url, props);
When connecting as SYSDBA or SYSOPER using the Thin driver, the RDBMS must be configured to use a password file. See "Creating and Maintaining a Password File" in the "Oracle Database Administrator's Guide".
So, i did execute orapwd command to create a password file and also set remote_login_passwordfile=execlusive in my initxxx.ora initial parameter file, however, when i tried to connect, it failed.
private static void createEmsdbDatabase(){
String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:";
StringBuffer sqlStatement = new StringBuffer();
sqlStatement.append("create database xxx");
sqlStatement.append("maxdatafiles 254 ");
sqlStatement.append("maxinstances 8 ");
sqlStatement.append("maxlogfiles 32 ");
sqlStatement.append("character set UTF8 ");
sqlStatement.append("national character set UTF8 ");
sqlStatement.append("DATAFILE 'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\system01.dbf' SIZE 18M REUSE ");
sqlStatement.append("logfile 'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\redo01.log' SIZE 2M REUSE, ");
sqlStatement.append("'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\redo02.log' SIZE 2M REUSE, ");
sqlStatement.append("'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\redo03.log' SIZE 2M REUSE ");
try {
DriverManager.registerDriver(new OracleDriver());
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("user", "sys");
props.put("password", "password");
props.put("database","xxx");
props.put("internal_logon", "sysdba");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, props);
Statement statement = conn.createStatement();
statement.executeUpdate(sqlStatement.toString());
statement.close();
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
But what made me puzzled a lot is if i use OCI driver, it did work great, why??? guys, anybody knows, please give me some tips, thanks in advance.
regards,
Kaixuan @ Shanghai

clarify my question in detail:
Step 1 : create password file using orapwd command
Step 2 : create database instance using oradim command
Step 3 : login using sys as sysdba to startup database, e.g startup nomount pfile='...\initxxx.ora'
Step 4 : create database.
java code showing below:
private static void createEmsdbDatabase(){
String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:";
StringBuffer sqlStatement = new StringBuffer();
sqlStatement.append("create database xxx ");
sqlStatement.append("maxdatafiles 254 ");
sqlStatement.append("maxinstances 8 ");
sqlStatement.append("maxlogfiles 32 ");
sqlStatement.append("character set UTF8 ");
sqlStatement.append("national character set UTF8 ");
sqlStatement.append("DATAFILE 'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\system01.dbf' SIZE 18M REUSE ");
sqlStatement.append("logfile 'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\redo01.log' SIZE 2M REUSE, ");
sqlStatement.append("'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\redo02.log' SIZE 2M REUSE, ");
sqlStatement.append("'c:\\oracle\\xxx\\redo03.log' SIZE 2M REUSE ");
try {
DriverManager.registerDriver(new OracleDriver());
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("user", "sys");
props.put("password", "password");
props.put("database","xxx");
props.put("internal_logon", "sysdba");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, props);
Statement statement = conn.createStatement();
statement.executeUpdate(sqlStatement.toString());
statement.close();
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
issue was met here, when i tried to login as sysdba using sys, and in my java code, i use Thin driver, it then thrus exception, but when OCI driver is used, it works great, i don't know why.
that is, when i use "jdbc:oracle:oci8:@" as database URL and then properties.put("database","xxx"), it works great. but, when i use "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:" as database URL and then properties.put("database","xxx"), it failed. hopefully, i have clarified my question clearly. thanks.

Please help.I am using a desktop and logged in as an administrator.I think we are missing some information here. Are you trying to connect via Server Explorer?
If so, you need to choose the drop down box and set it to "SYSDBA".

Why does more users can login as sysdba than specified in password file

I have multiple databases using same password file which has five entries for sysdba, but i have more than five users who have sysdba right and all of them can simultaneously login as sysdba, can any one explain why

How do your users connect ? You may have any number of users connected locally as sysdba. Local connections are authenticated by OS, no password file is used.
Moreover, the five entries of password file have to be intended as DISTINCT users, but you may have a much higher number of connections.

Database Login - Can not login as sysdba

I have a userid for a database on a separate server. I can login as sysdba on the server with the database and from the OEM server. I can not login as sysdba from OEM. Is there a change that needs to be made to the password file or does there need to be password file on the OEM repository server?

What do you mean with OEM server here? Centralized gridcontrol server? That's a different concept, you connect to a specific administration user (often SYSMAN), 'sysdba' is not applicable here. Otherwise a server, which hosts a standalone DBConsole is not different from any other database server.

Disable login as sysdba without password

Hi,
we are hosting our environment externally with a hosting company and wanted to know if there was anyway of disabling (from within the database) login "/ as sysdba" without having to provide a password.
The scenario we are trying to avoid is a malicious OS administrator putting themselves into the dba/ora_dba group and then setting the sqlnet.ora parameter SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) and then being able to login to the database without out having to provide a password and being able to view very sensitive data??
any help much appreciated.

It sounds like you have a managed hosting company. You need to discuss with the hosting company what types of access they need in order to perform their management functions and limit the admins at the hosting company to an account that does not allow them to add them selves to the dba/ora_dba group or perform any other functions that you do not wish them to perform.

Only able to login as sysdba?

I just installed 11g2 on Redhat 5. I logged in using sqlplus as follows:
$sqlplus sys/abcabc as sysdba
I created a user as follows:
sqlplus> create user "xyz"
profile "DEFAULT"
identified by "abcabc"
default tablespace "MYTAB"
temporary tablespace "TEMP"
account unlock;
sqlplus> grant dba to "xyz"
sqlplus> commit;
sqlplus reported user created and dba granted. No errors were repored by sqlplus.
Now when I try to login as follows:
$sqlplus xyz/abcabc
I get a login prompt again and after 3 retries, I'm kicked out.
BUT, if I login as follows:
$sqlplus xyz/abcabc as sysdba
I get logged in.
What could be the problem? I've followed the exact same procedure for creating a user many times before and it always worked. What is different this time that I need to login as sysdba?
Thanks

Cannot login as sysdba in Oracle Enterprise Management Console

Hi,
I have recently installed Oracle 9.2.0.4 in Red Hat Linux 9.
I ran "oemapp console" to launch the Oracle Enterprise Manager Console Standalone. However, everytime I tried to login as:
user: sys
password: <sys password>
connect as: sysdba
I always get ORA-01031: insufficient privileges.
The Oracle database where I cannot connect as sysdba in OEM was created MANUALLY.
However, I can successfully login to OEM as sysdba if the database was created using Database Configuration Assistant...
So I might have missed out some configurations when I creasted the database MANUALLY...
any ideas??
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Prasanna

Hi there once more,
Of course it is possible that user system has the same problems as user sys (insufficient privs)....
In that case try to log on as internal/pwd@dbname as sysdba to perform the trick.
Good luck!

Georges.

Hi,
i found a similar problem when we changed the sys password of a living instance of Oracle. First of all, check that the password you are typing is correct (with the pwDBNAME file). Toad saved the password? If you can see an error message restarting the db if you have a problem on this file. If you can perform all test on teh server avoiding to use the server string but just setting the SID. Are you sure that the server string points to the right db?
Hope this helps
