Password and host string

Hi,
Im trying to get the Oracle 8i for 2000 to run correctly. I did a download. Problem is getting pass the password screen. The host string is giving me trouble. What should go there? Any place where the password and host string info are stored for later retrieval?
thanks,
Cindy

If you installed the default database then you should type in system as the user and manager for the password and ORCL as the host string (these are the defaults).
The hoststring names (database aliases) would be in the tnsnames.ora file uder your Oracle_Home/network/admin directory
If you login as system or a user that has DBA privileges, you can change passwords as you see fit
syntax:
alter user identified by somepassword;

I believe that starting with 9.2, you have to specify different passwords when you install (can't be the default).

What are the username, password and connect string for Designer 6.1.1?

So that we may better diagnose DOWNLOAD problems, please provide the following information.
- Server name
- Filename
Oracle designer6.1.1
- Date/Time
- Browser + Version
IE 6.0
- O/S + Version
Win 98
- Error Msg
ORA-12154:TNS:could not resolve service name.
RME-00220:Fail to connect to repository
These error messages were shown after I entered system, manager and internal, respectively.

Hi YungJen Chen,
There is no general username, password and connect string for
Designer 6i Release 4.1.1.
First, you install the client tools using the Installer. See also the
Designer Installation Guide, Chapter 1, 'Client Side installation'.
Second, you install the repository into an existing database, using
the Designer Installation Guide, Chapter 2, 'Server-side installation,
migration and upgrade'.
The Installation Guide provides step by step instructions on what
users you need to create for various purposes. Any database users
you may need to use such as System or Sys will use the password
given when you installed the database, or whatever passowrd you
changed it to since.
The Installation Guide is available as part of the download, or from
your Windows Start Menu once the Designer client tools are installed
or from the Designer Documentation page here on OTN.
Hope this helps. Regards,

Capturing Login /PW and Host String!

HI ALL!
I NEED UR HELP TO CODE HOW TO CAPTURE
LOGIN NAME/ PASSWORD AND HOST NAME IN FORMS.
I AM DEPLOYING THESE FORMS(V5.0) INTO INTRANET.
THANKS
VIJAY

If you need to capture them after the application has been initiated then :
DECLARE
u_name VARCHAR2(10);
pw VARCHAR2(15);
host_name VARCHAR2(15);
BEGIN
u_name := GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY(USERNAME);
pw := GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY(PASSWORD);
host_name := GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY(OPERATING_SYSTEM);
END;
You can do this in the PRE-FORM or WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger. If you need to access those variables at some time in the application , then I suggest that you use global variables or create 3 items on the null canvas and assign these values to them.

Id,Password and Host

Hi
Jim a begginer , i just intsall Oracle at my pc ,
i want to use SQL to create tables but when ever , i open
" Oracle SQL*Plus" .. it prompts for
User name.
password
Host
what should i write in these fields , i mean during installation, i didnt give any user name and password and what will be my host ..
can any one please reply me
thanks ..i really appreciate that
Fahad

A quick search of the forums would have given you this answer.
Assuming you are using Oracle9i, try:
scott/tiger
system/manager
sys/change_on_install as sysdba
You can leave the host blank if you're just connecting to the default database on your PC.
If you are using Oracle10g, you will have set the passwords yourself during install.

HOW CAN I GET USERNAME,PASSWORD,HOST STRING?

I have installed oracle 9i personal edition, when i tried to open sql plus, i was asked to fill username,password and host string. When i type anything it shows error message ora-12154.Is anyone can help me? Thanks

The error you gave can appear for lots of reasons.
You don't give any information about how the install
went - did you check the logs for errors? Have you
shut the machine down since you did the install?
Are you actually running SQL*Plus on the same machine
as the database? Is your database running? Can you
connect using "/ as sysdba"? What hints that even
a simple google search gives did you try?

I think the problem with host string.
actually when we are trying to enter into the oracle sql,it asking the username,password and host string.I mentioned the username and password in variables tab.I don't know where I have to mention the host string name.
Please any one help on this.
Thank you,
D.Nagireddy.

I would say that, since the OP has so little info, there are no policies in use. It there were then this question would never be asked the way it is being asked.
I had a client call with a letter from their insurance company; an accountant with malpractice insurance. THey asked the same question inmuch the same way. "What computer can you users access?" The question should be more like
"Do you have a policy that restricts access to computers and do you audit for compliance?"
I have had other clients whose insurance asked the question in that way. It produces a better view of what should be happening and how to show compliance.
I recommend that companies being asked these questions by their legal departments or insurance companies should contract with a god computer security consultant to assist with answering these very tricky questions. Of course if it is just you boss's
curiosity then you may need to discuss his requirements with him in more depth.

Default SQLPlus host string

I installed 9.0.1.1.1 on a Win2k PC with default setup using the Oracle Installer. Afterwards, I also installed the OEM on the same machine. For some reason, when I login to SQLPlus without specifying an Host String, SQLPLus always logins into the OEM instance, OEMREP. Does any one know where I can change the defaut Host String back to the original instance?

You can argue that there is no such thing as a default username, password, and host string for Oracle.
You can also potentially respond with instructions to try to log on as sysdba
sqlplus /nolog
connect / as sysdbaIf you are a member of the appropriate Oracle group you are now connected as user SYS. I do not consider this as a default user.
You should create and grant appropriate privileges to application and DBA usernames.
The default instance names for Oracle installed on Windows are XE for Express and ORCL for regular Oracle though this last can be changed.

Mohana Krishana K

Hi,
Host is the address of the server.
Please check your tnsnames.ora file in your oracle_home->network->admin folder.
there you will find something as
HOST =Twinkle

Connection string & host string

Hello,
What is difference between connection string and host string?
Could someone please clarify it.
Regards
Krishna

In tnsnames.ora file in host part whether we have to specify host name or host IP Address?
ORION.SSAPL01=
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = [b]sagardomain.SSAPL01)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
or HOST = 10.15.1.111

Oracle 8i Lite: logging to sql plus - uid, password, host string - whats that

If i install "Oracle 8i Lite" (just locally, not networked). There are two important things : "Navigator", and "SQL Plus". If in navigator, I create a local database called "xxx" (tables under 'system' user). Then if i need to query - i go to SQL Plus. Fine, but how do we log in - what is the "host string" ?.
The login needs, Userid, Password, Host String. In some docs, it said the userid, password for 'system' account is 'system, manager' respectively. Anyways, now the host string , i had read the 'host string' will be like "@databasename", so I think for me, it will be "@xxx"
But the way, I'm understing, i cant log, and SQL Plus says something "TNS: could not resolve service name". Maybe i have to something with that tnsnames.ora file....?
Incase, you could give ANY information, kindly inform.
Thanks

Host string usually refers to the host string that is stored in your TNSNAMES.ORA file. You can open TNSNAMES.ORA with a text editor.
If you get "TNS: could not resolve service name", it's either you have not start the database or your configuration in TNSNAMES.ORA is wrong.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
hi,
iam getting the same error(the TNS thing)can you be a bit more explaining regarding how to solve the problem.
