Oracle OTT generates error O2T-1117 Error reported by subsystem ORA-01017

Question

When I run the OTT tool with the following arguments:
ott userid=ayokomiz/******@ora11gm intype=ott_updatedata.inp outtype=ott_updatedata.out code=cpp hfile=mtgeclrm_updatedatadb.h cppfile=mtgeclrm_updatedatadb.cpp mapfile=mtgeclrm_updatedatadbmapping.cpp transitive=FALSE
It gives me the following error:
========================================================================================
OTT: Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production on Tue May 08 09:49:36 EDT 2012

ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
O2T-102, ERROR: Unable to connect to schema "ayokomiz"
========================================================================================
I am sure the connection string in "userid" is correct, because I can connect to Oracle SqlPlus using the same connection string.
Also, when I change it to another user's connection string, it works.
The ottcfg.cfg file is empty. Does anyone have any ideas?

Answer 1

I managed to have a work-around this issue; I've added the following option: "-config=my.cfg" where my.cfg file contains:
userid=ayokomiz/******@ora11gm
This makes it work. The string in the file is the same as the string in the "userid" option as a command-line argument. However, it points to a bug in the OTT tool.
