Password to start Oracle Database 9i

Hi,
I have just downloaded and installed Oracle9i Personal Edition Release 1(9.0.1.1.0) for Windows 98. When I run the option Start Oracle 9i Database under Database Administration, it asks for a password. What is the password?
Thanks

Hey Melvyn, have u found any other response?
I have the same problem, but I haven't found any solution.
Other OTN Members thinks that we have problem with SQLPlus login... instead we can't START Oracle because when we click on the specified menu voice "START ORACLE ETC...", a dialog appears requesting ONLY a password...
We haven't set any password during installation step and any other KNOWN PWD is good.
mmm it is a big mistery

  • How to let SOA Suite automatically start Oracle Database services if necess

    It occurs from time to time that I forget to start Oracle database services
    before I start Soa Suite. Can I somehow let SOa Suite startup script check in advance
    if Oracle database services need to be started (and start them automatically if necessary)?
    Peter

    Hi,
    This is a familiar issue. I've come up with the following solutions.
    1) On my linux machine, I start the database (EE) and soa suite at boot time using /etc/oratab.
    2) On my windows machine, I start the database (XE) at boot time, as a service that automatically starts. The soa suite is started manually. I could start the suite automatically as a service also, but because it takes up so much memory and I do not always want to run the suite, I prefer to start manually. In any way, the database is started automatically before the soa suite.
    Hope this will help you.
    Kind regards,
    H

  • How to Install emacs, openssh and start oracle database and get a connect?

    As suggested by another poster, I installed the prebuilt appliance at [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html] and [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html] with the intent of running oracle database in a linux vm as a guest on windows 7 and connecting to it using JDBC from the windows host.
    This is running but I don't know how to install other stuff. I tried "sudo yum install openssh" and "sudo yum install emacs" and "sudo service sshd status" and none of these worked (it could not find these packages). I could not get apt-get or app-get or aptget to work either. I was hoping that "uname -a" would tell me if this was fedora or debian or something else but no luck. What command do I use to learn the distro name?
    How do I make ifconfig tell me what the ip address so I can use "scp" and "ssh" to get into the box? Ok, /sbin/ifconfig works and I see there is only a loopback address. Ack! How do I create a socket so I can ssh into this little beastie?
    How do I disable the firewall or (better yet) punch holes in it so I get use JDBC and ssh, scp and samba from windows 7?
    I tried firing up the SQL Developer 3.1 and getting a test connection with username and password of "oracle" with no luck. How do I get a test connection to work?
    How do I determine if the database is running? If not, how do I start it and stop it and restart it?
    Thanks

    There is no "oracle" account native to the database itself. This is just the default account that owns the application. Log on as oracle/oracle to the OS. (OEL) You can change the passwords of the sys and system account by setting your $ORACLE_HOME and $ORACLE_SID. Default SID is orcl on a database install. Also set a path to the oracle binaries in the form of $ORACLE_HOME/bin.
    Then sqlplus / as sysdba
    Change passwords of sys and system using the following example.
    ALTER USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY [password];
    ALTER USER SYSTEM IDENTIFIED BY [password];
    The supplied appliance runs oracle enterpirse linux. Not debain or fedora.
    Why do you need "emacs"?
    I haven't personally load this appliance with Virtual Box but there has to be a readme file somewhere that details all the passwords and etc.

  • Problem starting Oracle Database

    I've just installed Oracle 8.0.5 on Linux Red Hat 5.2. I didn't
    have problems during the installation, but after that ...
    First of all, my "dbora" script doens't work. I don't know why,
    because it's in the directory /etc/rc.d/init.d. Then, when I try
    to start it manually, the follow mistake appear:
    ===
    ./dbora: [!: command not found
    ===
    It seems that it is a sintaxe error, but I copied exactly as in
    the Installation Guide, like as:
    =======
    # Set ORA_HOME to be equivalent to the ORACLE_HOME
    # from which you wish to execute dbstart and
    # dbshut
    # Set ORA_OWNER to the user id of the owner of the
    # Oracle database in ORA_HOME
    ORA_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.0.5
    ORA_OWNER=oracle
    if [! -f $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart -o ! -d $ORA_HOME]
    then
    echo "Oracle startup: cannot start"
    exit
    fi
    case "$1" in
    'start')
    # Start the Oracle database:
    su - $ORA_OWNER -c $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart &
    'stop')
    # Stop the Oracle database:
    su - $ORA_OWNER -c $ORA_HOME/bin/dbshut &
    esac
    su - oracle -c "lsnrctl start"
    ======
    Is there any mistake?
    Besides, when I try to start the Oracle Database, through the
    command "dbstart", the following messages appear:
    =============

    ==============
    Although it seems that the Database was started ('Database "orac"
    warm started'), I don't know why the mistake ORA-01031 appears.
    Was the Database "orac" started correctly?
    After, when I try to use the Server Manager to connect to the
    Database as system/manager, the following message appears:
    ========
    SVRMGR> connect system/manager
    ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
    =======
    Has this mistake something to do with the first one (ORA-01031)?
    Could someone help me? I'd be very grateful.

    Dear Aaron,
    It worked perfectly. Thank you very much!
    However, I'm still having problem to connect to the Database. The
    fact is that the dbora script calls the dbstart script ("su -

    we have the command "connect internal". At this point, I receive
    the error message "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges".
    I don't know if this has influency at the startup of the

    But what I know is that I don't managed to connect to the

    message "ORA-01034: ORACLE not available" for every account I

  • How to start Oracle database in solaris Machine

    I installed Oracle database in my solaris machine. Everything went fine .. I was able to install it and test the database if it's working or not.
    Something happened that made me shut down and restart the solaris machine, the problem is that Oracle is not running, so I have to start it manually, and I'm not sure how to do that ... Is there a way to start Oracle automatically once the solaris machine is started ...
    I'm using the SSH Secure Shell Client to configure and install everything into the solaris machine ..

    Here is the work around for starting oracle instance automatically.
    1) logon the system as root user.
    2) under /etc/init.d/ directory, create a file name oraclestart(name the file to what you feel comfortable). eg: /etc/init.d/oraclestart.
    with the following content:
    #!/bin/sh
    # Created by Henry Nguyen
    # Date 10/11/2005
    # Script to automatic start and stop oracle instances on server
    ORACLE_HOME=/export/home/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0 (diffrent on your system)
    if [ ! -f $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart || ! -f $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut ]; then
    echo missing oracle start/stop script
    exit 1
    fi
    case "$1" in
    'start')
    su - oracle -c '$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart'
    su - oracle -c '$ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start'
    'stop')
    su - oracle -c '$ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl stop'
    su - oracle -c '$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut'
    esac
    3) create 2 soft link as following:
    ln -s /etc/init.d/oraclestart /etc/rc2.d/S99oraclestart
    ln -s /etc/init.d/oraclestart /etc/rc0.d/K10oraclestart
    Note the S99 and K10: that are Solaris priorities to when start and stop an oracle instance and those letter must be capitalized.
    Hope this will help you

  • How to start oracle database server and client in windows 8

    Hi at all
    I'm a new entry in this forum and I'm a beginner with database oracle.

  • Problem in starting oracle database

    i have currently installed  oracle express edition 11g ,it installed successfully but now when i trying to start it from the shortcut on my desktop it is giving message
    Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1:8080 how can i solve this problem
    my OS is windows xp SP3 plz help

    Hi,
    I think the installation went wrong somehow (XP pro is supported, XP not but you probably can get it working too ).
    You could try the action again but first manually set the ORACLE_SID by typing :
    SET ORACLE_SID=XE
    and then try to start it up again with :
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    startup
    If this still fails you could check C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\diag\rdbms\xe\xe\trace\alert_xe.log to see if any extra information is logged at the end of the file about the ORA-01041

    And now You see the reason for error message.
    emctl thinks that time zone is US/Michigan (its from emd.properties file)
    but on linux timezone is set to Asia/Calcutta
    Yoiu should understand which one timezone is correct. If it's US - then talk with server sysadmin, he will set correct one timezone on linux.
    If correct one is on linux - then follow metalink note how to change timezone for agent.
    If none of them are correct, then You will have to follow both steps.
