Starting up a database when I forgot the sys and system password

Hi,
I want to startup up a database from Oracle Entreprise Manager. I forgot the sys and system password.
If I give the command:
orapwd file=orapwSDB01 password=test entries=100
can I give the password "test" to sys and then to connect with sys with password test as sysdba, and then to startup the database? Are any problems with this command?
Thank you,
Mihaela

Hi,
I have not done this myself, but YES, according to the documentation, thats correct.
ORAPWD FILE=mypwdfile PASSWORD=syspass ENTRIES=10
will set the password of SYS to syspass. And you can use the same further.
But here, you should be in oracle user or the user which owns the Oracle installation.
Also, OS authentication is always supperior than any other authentication.
Regards

I forgot sys and system password

Dear All,
I installed oracle database 9.2.0.6 one year ago and I am using this database for RMAN.
Today I need it to do something else but I really forgot the sys and system password and i dont know what to do.
I appreciate your help on that.
Thanks

Hi,
>>I really forgot the sys and system password
Really ? or are you trying to hack the database ? :-)
You can try this too:
Use the orapwd utility in order to re-create the SYS password...
e.g.: orapwd file=orapw<SID> password=adm entries=5
Cheers

Verify the database fails in the SYS and SYSTEM schemas

Hi all,
When we execute a verify: brconnect -u / -c -f stats -v cascade -t all -p 8
we obtain some errors from some tables (NOT PARTITIONED) of SYS and SYSTEM schemas:
BR0996W Table/index SYS.UTL_RECOMP_SORTED does not exist anymore
and
BR0301E SQL error -14508 at location stats_tab_validate-2
ORA-14508: specified VALIDATE INTO table not found
BR0893E Validating structure failed for table/cluster SYSTEM.LOGMNR_TABPART$
but the tables exists.
any ideas??
Thanks in advance

HI,

exit
sqlplus system/password
create synonym ops$<sid>adm.invalid_rows for system.invalid_rows;
Thanks

Forgot SYS and SYSTEM password

Hi all,
I have forgotten the password for SYS and SYSTEM. Is there any way to reset their pwd?

It depends on what authentication you use
IF you have something like remote_login_passwordfile=NONE then it will be OS authentication in that case
you can use
cmd>sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
login to sqlplus change the password
If toy have something like remote_login_passwordfile=SHAREDor EXCLUSIVE then
frm cmd>orapwd file=<name> password=<pwd> entries=5
will do that for you
Correct me if i am wrong

Forgot my SYS and SYSDBA password and used orapwd

Hi all,
I have successfully installed Oracle 11g and was able to create the ORCL database as well. I also run a script to create another database but there were tables that were auto-generated by the system such as the APPLY$_CHANGE_HANDLERS with many other tables names with "$". I was trying to DROP these tables but ORA-00604 and ORA-00942 errors kept appearing.
I thought maybe I need to login as SYSDBA but I forgot the password during installation so I used the Oracle_Home\BIN\orapwd. CMD prompt appeared but quickly gone away.
I appreciate any help:
1. I need to change SYSDBA password
2. I need to drop the unwanted tables created by the system.
Thanks in advance

entering pw in the cmd prompt doesn't do a thing.Hm, it seems you use orapwd in a wrong manner, please read it's help message, it's quite simple to recreate pwd file.
I cannot seem to connect to default ORCL database in the Oracle SQL Developer using the SYS, SYSDBA users. So I used the Oracle_Home\BIN\orapwd but as mentioned before the cmd prompt appeared for a split second.ofcause it would.
I am still digging in the forums and google but could not find a definite solution~Solution is: recreate your password file by orapwd utility in command prompt.

To analyze or not to analyze (sys and system)! That is the question.

Hello,
There are a lot of opposing opinions out there about whether it is beneficial or not to analyze the sys and system objects? Do you guys have any theoretical or practical knowledge that backs one or the other?
Also did any one experience considerable positive impact of calculating the "system stats" with dbms_stats.gather_system_stats?
Thank you,

Some good articles to read.

HT201304 how to reset phone when you forgot the passcode

How can I reset my iphone when I forgot the passcode in resrictions.

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
     1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
         of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
     2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
         red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
          If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
          and Home buttons.
     3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
         The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
         charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
         start with step 2 again.
     4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
         When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
     5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
     6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

There is no solution. You have to provide the ID and password. There is no way around it. If the person you bought it from can't provide it, return it and get your money back.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I have OS X 10.5.8 on my iMac, I'm trying to install Snow Leopard. When I insert the disk and click install it starts, but when its about 1/4 of the way done the computer restarts and my disk spits back out. When I look to see if it installed it still says 10.5.8. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

I bought the Mac OS X Snow Leopard Install DVD from the Apple Store.

My Iphone 4 32GB started having this issue when I downloaded the 2 last 6.1.X... VOICE CONTROL pops-up even when I sleep and calls random people just by the sound of the snoring... in FACETIME even more annoying. I confirm that it does this day and night

Turn off Voice Control.
Otherwise, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).

I am trying to organize thousands of images in aperture. The dates on the old scanned images is all 2008, when I started importing them. When I change the date in aperture some of them hold the modified date and some revert to 2008. Any ideas?

I am trying to organize thousands of old images in aperture. Aperture dates them all in 2008, when I started this project. When I change the date in aperture some of them hold the modified date and some revert to 2008. Any ideas?

I just tried a test library, re-imported fresh images from a hard drive, and the date changes still revert.
So neither your external drive nor your Aperture library are to blame.
What do you mean test in a different user acct? Would it be a good idea to uninstall and re-download aperture 3?
Appreciate all your help.
I meant the trouble shooting procedure described here: Isolating an issue by using another user account
To test, if some settings in your user account are faulty or preferences files corrupted, it helps to create a new user account from the "Users&Groups" System preferences. With a brand new user account you can see, if something in your current account is causing this.
Should you see, that Aperture is not even working from a new and clean account, I'd reinstall Aperture, and if need be the Operating system. Are you using any plug-ins?
