ORA-01017: invalid username/password; running step: 1-Complete configuratio

Question

While executing the step: 1-Complete configuration of Maintenance Wizard (Required)
I encounter the following error below. I have checked that apps and system passwords for the source database are correct. The MW user password is also correct:
Checking that Remote EOF_HOME is only a directory name, not a path...

Answer 1

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:

ORA-28000: the account is locked
