SQL> conn sys/password@string as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

Hi,
I guess even if you connect with "nolog" still you will receieve the same error.
Please confirm these things,
1)Are you are running all teh commands on the server itself.
2)What is the value of the parameter SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES in the sqlnet.ora.This parameter value in the case of windows should be set to NTS.Check what's teh value?
3)Confirm that the user (o/s user) through which you have logged in the system,it is a part of ora_dba group in your system.
Confirm and let us know the outputs.
Aman....
PS:This error is reported couple of times.Try searching this forum for the same error also.

Please review the document link sent earlier
Setting REMOTE_LOGIN_ PASSWORDFILE
In addition to creating the password file, you must also set the initialization parameter REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to the appropriate value. The values recognized are:
NONE: Setting this parameter to NONE causes Oracle Database to behave as if the password file does not exist. That is, no privileged connections are allowed over nonsecure connections.
EXCLUSIVE: (The default) An EXCLUSIVE password file can be used with only one instance of one database. Only an EXCLUSIVE file can be modified. Using an EXCLUSIVE password file enables you to add, modify, and delete users. It also enables you to change the SYS password with the ALTER USER command.
SHARED: A SHARED password file can be used by multiple databases running on the same server, or multiple instances of a Real Application Clusters (RAC) database. A SHARED password file cannot be modified. This means that you cannot add users to a SHARED password file. Any attempt to do so or to change the password of SYS or other users with the SYSDBA or SYSOPER privileges generates an error. All users needing SYSDBA or SYSOPER system privileges must be added to the password file when REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE is set to EXCLUSIVE. After all users are added, you can change REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to SHARED, and then share the file.
This option is useful if you are administering multiple databases or a RAC database.
If REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE is set to EXCLUSIVE or SHARED and the password file is missing, this is equivalent to setting REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to NONE.

WebDB - SYS password problem

My platform:
RH6.0
8.0.5.1 -Standard - with patches
probably - WEBDB 2.0.5 ;-)
I ran into the same problem that every one seems to be running
into - SYS password invalid. I was trying to install WEBDB into a
different home from 8.0.5.
- I bet that all of us were trying to install WEBDB into a
different home from 8.0.5 .
- As soon as took the default $ORACLE_HOME, the install zoomed
forward. ( actually still going on ). If this is going to screw
up the DB , thats another story.

WebDB SYS password summary and help

Hi,
I am working through the installation of webdb2.2 and have reached the invalid SYS password problem that many others here have encountered. I have seen advice to add a webdb alias to the tnsnames.ora file, use the default $ORACLE_HOME for the installation and let the system sort it out, or create a pass.sys file with the SYS username and password in it.
Which one of these seems to be the consensus 'BEST' way to get by the problem? I haven't followed this issue long enough to get a feel for how not to do it and would rather avoid making a mess of it.
TIA,
Nathan

HOW TO RESET SYS PASSWORD after rename of db

Thanks for taking my quesiton!
I renamed my database. Everything is working fine except I can not change sys password. If I try I get: ORA-28003 : password verified for the specified password failed.
I can change system's password. I can log on just fine as SYSI think my pwdsid.ora password file may be the problem.
Has anyone every had this happen?
Thanks, Kathie

Hello Kathie,
http://ora-28003.ora-code.com/
Have you set some specific password rules? Is the function VERIFY_FUNCTION available for all and is it valid?
Did you try to change the password for user sys with user sys?
Try it with some different user which have the rights for that... (for example sys) only for testing...
@Anantha:
You are right... but please have a look at here ( Fun with password verification):

Upgrade WebDB 2.2 to Portal Fails with Invalid Sys password

I am upgrading from WebDB 2.2.0.0.5 all the way to the latest 3.0.9xx. My database is 8172. I am at the point where you run the 306 upgrade script. It makes it through renaming all the webdb objects to UPG_<OLD_NAME> but then fails with an invalid sys password error when starting winstall. The sys password is not invalid and the script even tests that it is valid before even starting. So, I am not sure what the problem is. I have tried this about a dozen times different ways and still the same error:

We spend almost 6 months (on and off) to get a successful migration from webdb. After countless discussions with Oracle, because we though we where doing something wrong, Oracle advised us that forms do not migrate "well" and any migrated forms do not display as portals. We are not upgrading 300 components by hand. I do not know if this affects you like it did us but I thought you would like to know.

Irca script password problem

Hello,
When executing the irca script I keep receiving the following error : Failed to establish a database connection due to the following error : ORA-01017 : invalid username/password; logon denied
The problem is that I'm very certain about the password that I'm using (it's my sys password). The username on the other hand is something that I'm unable to enter when executing the irca script. Perhaps this is the problem.
All help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheerz,

Oh what a tangled web we weave. I read up on keychain and I don't understand what I'm reading. Right now I cannot download my email on my computer, I can access it through the cloud. I'm sure it will be the same for the other iCloud feathers. When I go to preferences and select iCloud when ever I try to sign in I get some dialog box it shows up "A keychain cannot be found to store 1076701306. It doesn't matter whether I reset it or cancel it out iCloud preferences remains grayed out.
In keychain access on the left side under keychains and Read's local item, systems, and systems roots.
When I select local items nothing shows up to the right under the name column even when down under all items is selected nothing shows up. And nothing shows up to the right when under categories I selected the other options password etc. On the other hand when I select under keychains systems, systems roots I do get items to show up on the right side under names under all items, passwords, etc. Where do I start?

SYS password not accepted during WEBDB install

I have installed the 8i Enterprise Edition, Enterprise Manager and WebDB software from the OTN site. I successfully installed EI and EntMan on my NT server box. However, when I attempted to install the WebDB software, the install wizard would not accept the SYS password I supplied. I have tried the change_on_install password, and additional passwords for the SYS user (I reinstalled a number of times in an attemp to correct the problem, myself)....Obviously, with no success.
Please Help.

Your SQL Net probably is not being resolved correctly.
You have two sqlnet.ora's in this configuration. What happens when you open sqlplus at the command prompt? Are you getting SQL PLus 8.0.5 or 8.1.5??
If its 8.0.5 you have to do 2 things.
1 set your tns_admin for the system enviromnment to your ORACLE8i_HOME/Network/Admin.
Check your settings with set | more
also modify your net80 tnsnames.ora

@king_ofthe_bill ,
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).
If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.

I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep.

I have a password problem. After importing data and settings from one MacBook Pro to a new one, I have to put my iCloud password in when re-starting the new computer, but the password from the old computer in when waking the computer from sleep. I want to use my iCloud password on both computers consistently. How can I fix this?

The only other place to change a password for the computer login is in Users & Groups preferences. But I don't really know enough here to fix your problem. You can try fixing the keychain:
iCloud- Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
Tutorial: Resolving Keychain Issues
If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password. This can be accomplished via the following process:
1. Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
2. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
3. Click the "First Aid" tab
4. Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
5. Close the Preferences window
6. Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
7. Enter your username and password
8. Click the "Repair" button
The second option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible. This can be accomplished as follows:
1. Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
2. Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
3. Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
4. Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
5. Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
6. Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting
"New Keychain"
7. You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then
going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
First, you want to enable the root user:
1. OS X Mountain Lion: Enable and disable the root user
2. OS X Lion: Enable and disable the root user
3. Mac OS X 10.6: Enabling the root user
4. Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user's home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, the Keychain may be to blame.
The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.

Any idea why. You are using os authentication thats the reason you are able to connect through command prompt.
Do you have any connections settings in sql developer.

WRT110 WIFI password problem

Hi Everyone,
I've got a very strange problem. First, I indicated WPA under Wireless Security section and typed in my passphrase. However when connecting to my wireless network name my passphrase never worked. Second, I completely disabled security and tried to simply connect without any passphrase, but I was still being asked for a passphrase nonetheless. I checked and double-checked and saved settings making sure security was disabled, but I was still being asked for a passphrase when choosing my wireless network!
I could probably restore my WRT110 to factory settings, however I don't want to loose other configurations like certain open ports and IP addresses I opened up for firewall.
Is there a way for me to resolve my WiFI password problem without restoring to factory default? I just need to figure out how to make the WiFi passpharse work. Here's what I have there:
Security Mode: WPA Personal
Encryption: TKIP
Passphrase: 0sunspot0
Key Renewal: 3600 seconds
However, when I pick my wireless network and try to connect to it by typing in 0sunspot0, I get authentication failure!
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Victor.

Changing 'SYS' password in 'Shared' mode ?

Oracle 9.2/AIx5.3
I have two Db DB1/DB2, both of these Db's are in 'Shared' remote login password mode. Now, I was under the impression that whilst in this mode, it was not possible to simply issue a command
alter user SYS Identified by <NEW PASSWORD>;
to change the password, if you did, it would result in an error message. Today I have tried, and it allowed me to change the 'SYS' password ? How is this the case. I’ve tried it on a 10g Db that’s also running in 'Shared' mode and got the following error message.
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28046: Password change for SYS disallowed

Metalink 452959.1 states you cannot change or add users to the passwordfile when remote_login_passwordfile='SHARED' and you need to set this to 'EXCLUSIVE'. I had to look this up and I found it simply by searching for the error number.
Assuming you are not running 10.2.0.1 you could have easily looked up yourself.
Also as Oracle is always changing, differences between 9.2 and 10gR1 or R2 are best verified by looking in the release notes for that version, providing the quickest answer easily.

Password Problem for some applications:

Password Problem for some applications: I'm unable to download Adobe Reader, Microsoft updates. I have no password set to start the computer, applications such as Pages, Numbers, Keynote require no password for updates.
When I try to update Microsoft or Adobe Reader, first I try with no password, I get a hint and I know exactly what it means, but still unable to download. I don't know enough about passwords as to why some I can download and others I can't. So I don't know what I should read. I'm the only user of this computer and prefer not to have to deal with passwords. I'm using a MacBook Pro, Mac OS 10.9.3

Oh what a tangled web we weave. I read up on keychain and I don't understand what I'm reading. Right now I cannot download my email on my computer, I can access it through the cloud.
