Sys password ?

Dear all,
I have successfully changed the sys password but when
I try to login
through sql developer or Enterprise manager I cannot.
Oracle version is 8.1
But from prompt it works well.
$sqlplus sys/pass as sysdba
connected
sql>
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.
Wahst the error you are getting.

SYSTEM and SYS password 11g on Windows Vista

Hello
I am having trouble. I do not know my SYSTEM and SYS passwords. I am using oracle 11g on windows vista. I tried to change the passwords but that did not work. I tried this:
c:/>sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
c:/>show user
c:/>passw system
then I changed the password. When I tried to log in the password change did not take effect. Any help would be great!

Hi,
There is no default password for sys and system in 11g.
you cna use the below command to change the system or sys password
alter user SYSTEM identified by PASWORD
same for sys
nOTE: password are case sensitive.Regards,

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):

Sys password problem "INSUFFICIENT PRIVELEGES"

hi,

Re: sys password problem
but now i try to vreate a new password file and it successfully created using orapwd....
but when i try to login as a sys user thru oracle authentication i couldn't because i am getting an error
"INSUFFICIENT PRIVELEGES"
and another thing i would like to know do i have to shutdown the database or not for the same.

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.

looking for ur reply....
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.

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.

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:

Does anyone have ANY ideas????

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.

Sys password issue

We have oracle 10.2.0.1 running on Unix
WE didnt set the password of SYS user in oracle but now we would like to set
I use the command alter user sys identified by password
i got message user altered
Now i tried connection to sys/password@abc as sysdba
but no luck
So i created password file by
orapwd file=orapwdhmo password=password entries=2 force=y
file created but again unable to login
and at OS level
if I set
ORACLE_SID=INSTANCE_NAME
export ORACLE_SID
sqlplus / as sysdba
connected
I am able to
Please let me know how to set password for sys

Is this attempt where the db resides, or from a remote client:
sqlplus "sys/password@abc as sysdba"
On the other hand,
ORA-01031: Message 1031 not found; No message file for product=RDBMS,
facility=ORA
unavoidably means you cannot open error message catalog. Reasons are either:
- Incorrect ORACLE_HOME setting
- Incorrect PATH setting
- files have been removed
And this error message issue must first be solved before you pretend to change sys password.
Changing sys password is as follows:
1. Create a password file
2. Make sure your remote_login_password_file says exclusive
3. rebounce your instance
4. change sys password
5. verify your username is listed at the V$PWFILE_USERS dynamic view
7. change user password.
I suggest you to double check.

Changinf sys password in dataguard env

Hi,
Version:10gr2
Changing sys password is not reflected in standby site.
Alter sys identified by asdf';
At primary site orapw<SID> file got updated but stanby db password file is still old one. Does this means:
every time we change sys password at primary do we need to copy the password file to standby?
We have 50 db's in that 20 are dataguard env's. We have a script to change sys password's automatically every month. Its really a painfull job to go to all env's and copy the password file to all the standby locations.
When we create password file with orapwd even then we need to shift the password file to all stanby sites.
Please suggest me is there any way i can change my sys password with 'ALTER USER SYS' command and that chage picks the standby database.
Thanks,
Anil

you can create a unix script which does SCP password files to standby after you reset password.
this can be done from any machine.

How to recreate dbconsole (Oracle10g ) after change SYS password?

Hi all,
would like to know how to recreate dbconsole after change SYS password? is there any links i can refer?
Thanks
Rgds,
Nonie

You don't need to recreate the console after changing the SYS password, it is not required. Once you have changed the sys password, the only two tasks you'll may have to do are:
1. Connect to the DB Control Console with the new password (mandatory, obviously).
2. Change the preferred credentials, in case you have stored the sys password as preferred credentials for your database.
Console repository and EM configuration have to be rebuilt only when there are connectivity conditions that have changed, such as host name change, or IP address change, which happens when you get your IP address by means of a DHCP server.
Are you currently facing some issue, besides the log in with new credentials, when attempting to start services?
One more thing I could guess you are working on a 10gR?? (1 or 2) on an unknown platform (unix, windows???) please specify.

Standby Gaps after changing sys password

Hi all,
11.2.0.1
aix6.1
I changed our sys password at primary db and copy the "orapwdprod" from source dbs to "orapwdproddr" at standby dbs.
But I noticed that the log is not sync.

Where can I check the error why is it not applying acrhive logs
Thanks,
zxy

For example:
In primary run again transfer orapwd (command scp)
bash-3.2$ scp /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/dbs/orapwXXXXX1 Standby_ip:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/dbs/orapwXXXXX
Password:
orapwKBAZER1         100% |**************************************************************************************************************************************************| 2048       00:00
And please run sql query again:
SELECT status, error
FROM V$ARCHIVE_DEST_STATUS
WHERE STATUS <> 'DEFERRED' AND STATUS <> 'INACTIVE';
I have done this carefully and Im sure I did it correctly.
How can I test connectivity to standby database?
Can I run at primary server > sqlplus sys/passwd@standby as sysdba ? to test if I can connect using the password file?

Changing a SYS Password Permanently.

Hi,
How could i change a sys password permanently?
Kindly post me the steps in changing the same.
Previously i have tried creating the Orapwd file as follows
Ive shuddown the DB and exported ORACLE_SID=poorna
created
orapwdfile=ORACLE_HOME/dbs/pwdpoorna.ora password=poorna
I was able to login as sys/poorna as sysdba and sys/sys as sysdba also.
I want to login as sys/poorna only.
also i have tried alter user sys identified by poorna (changes doesn't takes permanently)

orapwdfile=ORACLE_HOME/dbs/pwdpoorna.ora password=poornayou created password file is in format of Windows. So this password file even if you create, it will be ignored as srp mentioned.
I was able to login as sys/poorna as sysdba and sys/sys as sysdba also.
I want to login as sys/poorna only.
also i have tried alter user sys identified by poorna (changes doesn't takes permanently) When you are the owner of the ORACLE that mean you have OS authentication, Actual authentication no need. Try with wrong password from client machine or any other machine with wrong password. :) then you will.

Changing Sys password in RAC

We are into the process of changing sys password of our RAC database.
If i change password on one node, will that password be get reflected on another node ??
(Since sys password is also stored in password file, i doubt, if change password on one node, the password file on another node will also get updated).
we have separate password files for each instance e.g inst1, inst2
so do i have to give command
alter user sys identified by new password .....on inst1
and
use orapwd ustility on inst2 to change sys password.
or else
alter user sys identified by new password......on inst1
alter user sys identified by new password(same as that of inst1) .....on inst2
