Business Objects Password reset via Oracle SQL

Post Author: Neville
CA Forum: Administration
Hello ,
Is it possible to reset a Business Objects user Password using Oracle SQLPlus?
The password data is stored under obj_m_actor in the repository!
Regards,

What do you mean by "application"?We do have a number of home grown applications that require username, and password.
Some of these application use the standard ldap username/password. So resetting the password here may also reset other application passwords as well. Yet some of our application have their own unique way of resetting the password for the application. I am hoping to copy the way that a sys admin usually does this and replicate it using java. Some are command line, other are through the use of a tool used by the application. So far I have been able to replicate most of them using java. I am still working on 1 other. 5 out of 6 not bad. Anyway, we would like to go to one place to reset the password for a user, and then email that temp password to them. Of course we will have some sort of authentication to change the password, such as unique questions they must answer, etc...

Password reset option difference b/w Oracle 11g R1 and R2

Hi,
I came to know that the password reset option is different comparing 11g R1 and R2. My understanding is as below.
For R1, you need to do a password reset for the user id separately and for the account access which that particular user id has access will be different.
For R2, if you reset the password for user id which will reset the password for user id and as well as the all the accounts which that user has.
Here is my Ques.
1) Let me know if my both above statements are correct.
2) Because When i click on home button in Identity self Service, i do see an password reset option as "account" and value as "Oracle Identity manager". i could see the same option even though if i integrate an application which is database related.
Also the doc for R2 says you have two options to do the password reset. Pls check 6.2) Changing Password and option 2. Let me know what is correct and what is wrong here.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27559_01/user.1112/e27151/my_profile.htm
Thanks in Advance,
Satheesh.

Please find my answer with respect to OIM 11gR2
Suppose you are selecting AD from the drop down and resetting the password then 'Password Updated' task will be inserted into the process definition of AD
and propogated to the target system. It simply means you are changing UD_ADUSER_PASSWORD field in process form.
Even after doing this change you will be able to login with your old password
When you select value as "Oracle Identity Manager" then it is changing the user password at this instance. So the new password you are giving comes into effect for that user and you will be able to login next time with this new password only.Also 'Change User Password' task is inserted in all process definitions where this task with same name is present.
This is the real password change and the previous option you did is to change the value in process form for that particular account and propogate it to the target.
Hope this helps

Oracle 11g XE Application Express - Retrieve or reset password

I cannot remember my password to access an existing database in Application Express. I tried entering my password 3 times, but the system does not provide a status other than 'Invalid Login Credentials'. I am going to assume that 3 times is limit before you have to reset the password or from what I see reinstall. When selecting reset, the system asks for an email address that was never established in the system. How can I reset my password without uninstalling and reinstalling Oracle 11g XE?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Oracle 11G password case sensitive option is not working.

Hello,
I am facing problem in Oracle 11G. I installed and created a database. I disabled password case sensitive option by setting it to false (Pls see the below output). but case sensitive option is not disabled and i am not able to logon using the lower case password.
SQL> connect sys/<pwd in lower case>@<connect string> as sysdba;
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
Warning: You are no longer connected to ORACLE.
SQL> connect sys/<pwd in uppper case>@<connect string> as sysdba;
Connected.
SQL> show parameter SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON
NAME TYPE VALUE
sec_case_sensitive_logon boolean FALSE
Any idea.... should i open the case in the metalink ?
With Regards
Hemant Joshi.

Can you execute:
SQL> select USERNAME, PASSWORD_VERSIONS from dba_users where username = 'SYS';Have you tried reseting the sys password? When you create the password file by default the passwords stored on it are case sensitive, maybe you also need to rebuild it...

Thanks,
Satya Ranki Reddy

looks like there is a way to recover the lost passwords for RPD's using listcred() method of wlst
look at the following doc http://www.rittmanmead.com/2011/04/oracle-bi-ee-11g-migrating-security-credential-store-part-3/
Listing the Credential in Dev Environment:
All the Credential Keys are generally stored in an encrypted format (the passwords). So, to migrate we will need to first extract these passwords and then do the migration to Production. The passwords can be extracted through the listCred() method of WLST. We need to be connected to the Admin Server for this method to work. The exact command is given below
connect(“weblogic”,”welcome1″,”localhost:7001″)
listCred(“DevMap”,”DevKey”)
This will show the encrypted password entered inside the key as shown below
And this is what we see in the enterprise manager.
As you see, with listCred we are able to extract the full credentials. Now, lets try to see what is the default password for the BISystemUser.
listCred(“oracle.bi.system”,”system.user”)
In the same way lets extract the passwords of the SampleAppLite repository.
listCred(“oracle.bi.enterprise”,”repository.SampleAppLite”)
With this we can even extract the lost Repository passwords."
i am going to try it out now

Administrator password reset procedure failed on Weblogic 11g

We run a Weblogic Server 11g, the web console password for the user 'weblogic' is lost.
The password reset procedure described "java weblogic.security.utils.AdminAccount newAdmin newPassword ." does not work, this java class is not found "Could not find the main class: weblogic.security.utils.AdminAccount. Program will exit."
Still i found an encrypted hash of the password in the boot.properties file under /oracle/u01/WLS1031/user_projects/domains/domain_Mumus/servers/AdminServer/security, but it is not easy t decrypt it.
any ideas?

Hm, almost working
1 first run
java -cp /oracle/u01/WLS1031/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/weblogic.jar:$CLASSPATH weblogic.security.utils.AdminAccount John John1 .
the idift file was modified successfuly,
then i changed the boot properties file
username John
password John1
i restarted the server.
I had to make the shutdown with the old credentials. (with the old boot_properties file)
but the server cannot log me in.

User change password after first logging in Oracle 11g

Hi
Can you help someone in connection with this problem:
user can not change password after first logging in Oracle 11g
All the best
Ragip Avdijaj

Sounds like they are not getting logged in at all, so they are never getting to the point where they can change the password, but we need to see more detail to give a better answer (an example or copy-paste of a sqlplus session might help)

Host Credentials ERROR Invalid username and or password Oracle 11g

Hi,
This error has been bugging me for sometime now and I can't find a straight forward answer anywhere, can you help?
Oracle 11g on Windows XP SP2 Intel box.
I am trying to export data and when I'm asked for the Host Credentials I get the error
" ERROR Invalid username and or password "
I have tried the following syntax for Username:
<domain name>\Administrator
<domain name.local>\Administrator
<domain name>/Administrator
<Local host name>\<domain name>\Administrator
I have gone through making sure that the local security policy settings are correct.
I have added domain and local Administrator to the ora_dba Group.
All services relating to Oracle are running.
I can connect via SQL Plus with no issues.
I can connect to EM locally and from my client pc with no issues.
Any ideas, please, can anyone help me?
I'll gladly furnish you with any info I can to get past this seemingly simple step!
Regards
naexpert.

Trying to understand your reply, here is what I did:
Created new Windows user called OraAdmin.
OraAdmin is now member of administrators group and Ora_dba group.
Logged onto EM at server and used System user logon.
Data Movement
Export to Export Files
Tables
Host Credentials
Tried
OraAdmin - failed
oracle-11g\OraAdmin - failed
oracle-11g/OraAdmin - failed
Don't know what else to do......

Forgot my oracle 11g username and password

hi all
forgot my oracle 11g username and password , how can i recover them although i tried multiple ways as using / as sysdba and it didnot work .

Please in addition to your own words, post full copy-paste of command line sessions including actual error messages (e.g. cannot access database is not an actual error).
Try from a command window (cmd), assuming Windows platform:
sqlplus / as sysdba
If it says "Connected to idle instance.", try:
SQL> startup
Did you just install XE or was it working before and now suddenly it doesn't? (what changed in the latter case?)

Oracle 11G - set id password to not expire

Hello, I've created an Oracle 11G database. The default on passwords is to expire every 180 days. I need to create an account that batch processes can use (for application code) which will not expire. How do I set a password on a user id to not expire? Maureen

And rethink your goal. The longer a password is allowed to live, the more opportunity for it to become exposed. If you care at all about database security, never allow a password to have unlimited life. Our end users have 180 life, my internal administrative passwords have 90 life.

Password Reset options - 11G R2

Hi ,
From the default OIM configuration, when we reset password by using 'Reset Password' link, password is also being reset in users all Provisioned Accounts. Our requirement is to Reset Password(using Password Reset link) only in OIM or doin reset password by selecting account, is that possible? Any guide is strongly appreciated..
BR,
Aliye

You are right. This property has no effect in R2.same is mentioned in Oracle doc.But this is how it was in R1
Now, in case of R2 it should be default behavior. because we have list of changePassword() method which set USR_CHANGE_PWD_AT_NEXT_LOGON=1 in OIMDB. I am not sure if the same method is called or not. else you have to do as rajeev suggested.
Look at below method of UserManager API
void changePassword(java.lang.String userID, char[] password,boolean isUserLogin, java.util.Locale locale, boolean setPasswordResetFlag,boolean sendNotification)
setPasswordResetFlag-- if the value is True then it will set USR_CHANGE_PWD_AT_NEXT_LOGON=1 in OIMDB else USR_CHANGE_PWD_AT_NEXT_LOGON=0
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27559_01/apirefs.1112/e28159/oracle/iam/identity/usermgmt/api/UserManager.html#changePassword_java_lang_String__char____boolean__java_util_Locale__boolean__boolean_
I have to verify which method has been called from UI and if this method is being called, does it pass True for setPasswordResetFlag parameter.
Meanwhile, you can implement as rajeev suggested or consult oracle for same. Because, as per my understanding it should be default behavior or there should be system property to control this.
Better ask oracle if this property has no effect then how do we manage this.See what workaround they suggest
