Sys account insufficient privilages

Hi
I am have a strange problem with oracle 10g r2.
when i connect to sys account using the following credentials it connects
conn sys/password as sysdba
but when i connect with follow it fails
conn sys/password@orcl as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
when is look at remote_login_password file its exclusive so no error
remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
please help me in this problem. this is a fresh installment on linux 4as
regards
Nick

Just to be even clearer...
Your password file was named orapworcl.
Your ORACLE_SID is evidently set to ORCL
On Windows, you'd have gotten away with it, because orcl is the same thing as ORCL. But on any other OS you care to mention these days, case sensitivity means ORCL<>orcl, and hence a SID of ORCL demands that your init.ora/spfile and your password file also contain within them the name ORCL, in upper case.

  • Problem in loadjava using sys account

    Hello
    When I load a jar file into the database using loadjava command using sys account like
    loadjava -user sys/<password> -resolve -order weblogic.jar
    it gave the following error
    loading : oracle/jdbc/driver/OracleResultSetCache
    creating : oracle/jdbc/driver/OracleResultSetCache
    Error while creating class oracle/jdbc/driver/OracleResultSetCache
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
    I have seen in the table that sys account has the right to loadclassinpackage oracle.jdbc.*.
    Please tell me what is the error and how can I rectify the error.
    Prashant

    Prashant,
    If I'm not mistaken, this is exactly the same question as you
    posted 10 minutes earlier -- but with a different title. The title
    of the earlier question is...
    calling EJB installed on weblogic from PL/SQL
    Is there a reason why you did this?
    Anyway, seeing as I'm sure this is the same as your previous question,
    I suggest you look at the answer I gave to that question -- it will
    probably be relevant to this question {;-)
    Good Luck,
    Avi.

  • SYSDBA - problem with viewing other users package body texts on sys account

    Hi,
    SQL Dev 1.0.0.15.27 has problem with correct display of other users package body texts on sys account. All bodies have "create or replace" text instead of all pck. bodies text.
    I guest it's problem with SYSDBA role. On system account text is displayed correctly. Quest SQL Navigator 5.x has no problem with this. Any ideas ?
    Regards,

    Hi Everyone,
    Just so I can close the case on this issue, although I was successful in
    using CSS to resolve the issue, actually, the issue was not really
    resolved. There was (for me) still the problem of rollover images not
    working in IE, and if I were ever to get another good night's sleep, I
    would need to resolve it -- so I did. Recall me saying earlier about the
    sizes being brought in to the javascript code by Dreamweaver? The original
    issue with having the size of the small image in the code caused the code
    to see the larger image as small also! However, when I deleted those size
    attributes' numbers, I failed to delete the words "width" and "height"
    along with the double quotes following each. So, while the other browsers
    ignored these "blank" attributes within these double quotes, IE apparently
    didn't, reading these "blank" values as some very small value, thus
    displaying the image in the absolutely smallest size possible! Wow! When I
    removed these two blank attributes, my problem went away! Live and learn!
    So, to all who were desperately trying to assist me, please accept my
    deepest and most sincere apologies. All the while I was blaming IE, I was
    the guilty one!!! Shame on me, and thanks for the wonderful responses I
    received from the Dreamweaver forum team. I will go and stand in the corner
    for 8 hours with my dunce cap on...

  • The installer has insufficient privilages to access this directory.

    I have just downloaded itunes 9, it installs until I get the following error message
    the installer has insufficient privilages to access this directory.
    C:progrem.files\itunes\itunes.resouces\da.lpro\DevicePrefsPodcasts.nb
    installation can't continue, log on as an administrator
    I have tried system restore but that doesn't seem to take me back to my old itunes.
    thanks for any help

    the installer has insufficient privilages to access this directory. C:progrem.files\itunes\itunes.resouces\da.lpro\DevicePrefsPodcasts.nb
    That one could be disk/file damage, b.
    Try running a chkdsk over your C drive. There's instructions and a guided help in the following Microsoft document:
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    "Create directory" is only for directories where the database is installed. It's essentially a server-side concept. So, if your database is installed on a machine called myDBserver, you can only create directories on the file system that myDBserver has access to. You also need to be logged-in as system to do this, then grant read and/or write to the schemas that need access to the directory.

  • SYS account locked out

    I am having a problem with the OEM and my sys account (Linux). When I first launch the OEM, I get the db is unavailable message. I know the db is open and that sys is unlocked but when I click startup to get the status, it tells me that my sys account is locked. I can never get to the Database Control Login page thus I can never get to DB home page to do anything.
    I have a 9i db on a different NT server and can bring up the OEM and manually discover the Linux server node and everything looks fine but just cannot get the 10g OEM to work properly.
    Appreciate any help.

    You need to use a password file and set your remote_login init param to EXCLUSIVE. See my earlier posts.

    Could you help me?

    sb92075 is, in a sense, correct.
    When you are a member of the DBA group Oracle connects you without password authentication. It is not so much that you have infinite passwords but rather that Oracle will ignore whatever you enter because it does not care.
    This is just a variation on: conn / as sysdba
    As this is a reasonably serious security hole, in 11g and above (possibly backported to 10.2.0.4 but I'm not able to verify it here), Oracle has closed it with a new parameter you can use when you create a password file:
    {code{
    orapwd file=<fname> password=<password> entries=<users> force=<Y|N> ignorecase=<Y|N> nosysdba=<Y|N>
    Note the NOSYSDBA syntax. A "Y" disables the ability to get in without a valid password.
    Unfortuantely, however, you are still working in Neolithic software so old it is in desupport so you will remain exposed until you upgrade to a currently supported version.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

  • Insufficient Privilages on restore

    Hi,
    After having Drive Genius skillfully screw a defrag of my PB, I'm having to restore various folders with Time Machine. I've run into a problem. I'm trying to restore the Printers folder in the system library folder, but it won't let me as it says I don't have sufficient privilages. Any ideas how to get around this?
    Many thanks.

    that's probably because you don't have write privileges the directory they live in.
    If you are having to restore various system folders why don't you do full system restore from TM? That would probably produce better results.
    If you insist on doing it by hand, activate the root user and login as root. you should be able to do TM restore of system folders from root account.
    to activate root, start Directory Utility, unlock the lock at the bottom and go to
    Edit menu->activate root. Give root a password, log out (or you might have to restart), choose "Other" from login window and log in as root.

  • ORA-01017 from SQL Developer while using SYS account

    Hi,
    We are seeing "ora-1017:invalid username/password" when trying to connect using sys user as SYSDBA Role in SQL Developer. The same account works fine in SQL*plus. The remote_login_password param is set to EXCLUSIVE and the file orapw$SID is also there.
    Any inputs to resolve this error is appreciated.

  • Install applications and sys account ???

    hi,
    i'd like to know where is solaris sys-admin account,
    and that root, root, root, who has given a password ???,
    during the installation process I was never asked,
    system do not recognizes my first account as sys-admin, i cannot install or do anything,
    does there any manual or better written help menu ???,
    anything i find is general questions-answers like go to that menu and make a click ???
    and that horrible passwords asking, ... this is so anal, no this is incredibly anal, if i am the administrator i have to have access on what i want, if i am a developer, i configure, i am working on, so, i need to do and control that i want again, .... no comments,
    thank you,

    Go back and review the responses in your very first forum post, from a month earlier:
    solaris root password & installer
    It may also be time for you to go get some books on Solaris.
    If you cannot afford actual books at the present time, Oracle has a great deal of Solaris documentation that you can download.
    See here (for example):

  • ODBC & Oracle 9.0.1 "SYS" account

    Hello;
    My ODBC application is not able to connect to an Oracle 9.0.1 server as "SYS" user. It works fine with older versions of Oracle!
    1) By default, it is not possible to connect to an Oracle 9.0.1 server as a normal user with "SYS" user account. It seems "SYS" user must connect with "SYSDBA" privilege. Is there a way to enable "SYS" user to connect as a normal user privilege?
    2) How do I connect to an Oracle 9.0.1 server using ODBC interface from a VB application as a "SYS" user?
    Any suggesions,
    Thanks in advance,

    I believe this was an intentional decision by the folks that develop the database. I don't recall in particular exactly what was changed & why, but I'm sure there's documentation about "new features/ depricated features" in 9.0.1.

  • Insufficient privilages in creating view

    HI,
    when I m trying to create a view in my system it gives me an error as insufficient privileges. I dont why ????
    create or replace view vw_emp as
    select t.empno vw_id, t.ename, t.job, t.sal from emp t;
    Details of error
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
    i believe i m the admin on my system. how do i grant privileges to create a view to myself or any other alternative....

    If you log in as a privileged user (i.e. SYSTEM), you would need to
    GRANT CREATE VIEW TO scottto give Scott permission to create a view.
    As for seeing whether you have that privilege, the simplest solution is to query the SESSION_PRIVS view while logged in as Scott.
    SELECT *
      FROM session_privs;Does that show that you have the CREATE VIEW privilege?

  • Connect to sys account

    this one works at the UNIX box:
    sqlplus SYS/TA8O!OOO as sysdba
    However this one doesn't work, getting "invalid username/password" error:

    And connect to sys from PL/SQL Developer doesn't work either.

    The setting looks fine to me. Do you see any problem?
