Unable to get SQL Plus login id & pw

Hi all, I am a beginner in using Oracle products.
Q1)
I am using windows vista and I have installed Oracle 10g on my machine, and when I tried to access SQL Plus, they prompted me for :
ID
Password
Host String
I do not know how to get/create those values. May I ask how to?
Q2)
How do I uninstall Oracle 10g from Windows Vista? I couldn't uninstall from the control panel.
Thanks!

On that page you had the choice of...
1. Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3)
Enterprise/Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows Vista
2. Oracle Database 10g Companion CD Release 2 (10.2.0.3)
10203_companion_vista.zip (677,074,714 bytes)
Download latest Oracle Application Express (formerly HTML DB)
3. Oracle Database 10g Client Release 2 (10.2.0.3)
10203_client_vista.zip (616,067,114 bytes)
If you select the first one then that looks like the full database, so you have installed a database locally on your PC.
When you choose the starter database there should have been an option to set the default password for all the default users with an option (usually missed) to set different passwords for each of the default users.
It's difficult to recall the details without actually going through an install which isn't something I do every day.
Best bet is in the installation forum.

  • Unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1

    I am unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1. Log message is as follows:
    Attempting to load library 'xplog70.dll' into memory. This is an informational message only. No user action is required.
    Failed to verify Authenticode signature on DLL 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Binn\xplog70.dll'.
    Error: 17750, Severity: 16, State: 0.
    Could not load the DLL xplog70.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: (null).

    Hi JFriedley,
    According to your error message, there might three reasons for this issue.
    xplog70.dll is corrupt, you need to check if you have any SQL Server running on same file version and same production
     edition. If xplog70.dll is corrupt, you can copy it from the new server where agent is running fine to your problematic server.
    Native client not installed properly. If you try applying any latest Service Pack or Cumulative Update then check if the SQL Server Agent can start, if that also doesn’t solve issue then try to reinstalling SQL Server Native client from SQL Server setup
    files.
    There is a similar issue about error 17750, you can review the following article.

  • Oracle10g Developer Suite - Application Development - SQL Plus Login Info

    I have installed Oracle10g Developer Suite and when I am trying to login into the sql*plus environment the username scott with the passcode tiger is not working. I have Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 as the database.
    Can anyone help me in setting up the username and password to login into Sql*plus Release 10.1.0.4.2

    It sounds like you may be new to Oracle and its products. I would recommend doing some reading.
    Oracle 9.2 Net Services Admin Guide
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/network.920/a96580/toc.htm
    Oracle Developer Suite Installation Guide
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25016_06/doc/dl/core/B16012_03/toc.htm
    You create the "login" information when you install the database. If you are not the person who performed the installation, you will need to contact them or install it again. Also, be aware that the SCOTT schema is disabled by default in newer database versions for security reasons.
    The tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files can be found in the ORACLE_HOME\network\admin directory. This is the same for all Oracle products that use Sql-Net for database connections. You can also use the TNS_ADMIN environment variable to point to a pre-existing tnsnames.ora file (see previously mentioned documents).
    The tnsnames.ora entry will be unique to your database and its listener however here is an example:
    ORCL =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = someServer.com)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
    )

  • How do i get sql plus to start in something other than command prompt?

    I have just installed oracle 11g enterprise addition. I am use to a different type of editor for the sql plus, the one I am use to comes up in a white area and has drop downs for file, tools, spool, help and so on. You can also open notepad with a shortcut. I like this better than command prompt how do i get this?

    I think you mean sqlplusw.exe which is a Windows executable delivered until Oracle 10.2 but no more delivered with Oracle 11g.
    Mayb you can have a look to SQL Developer http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/sql/index.html

  • Unable to use SQL Plus (Windows 2003 x64 Server)

    Hi all
    I have some trouble with tnsname.ora ...
    I have installed Oracle Client 10.2.0.1.0 with the ODBC Driver and SQLplus etc.
    Now I have configured in the "Net Manager" some "Service Naming" as I did
    on other servers before. Then I Test the connection in the "Net Manager" it
    seams to work fine.
    When I now try to connect in SQL Plus the following error comes up:
    ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    I did already do this:
    - Add "...\NETWORK\ADMIN" to the Path Variable of the server
    - sqlnet.ora looks like:
    SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
    NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES)
    - tnsnames.ora looks like:
    MyName.WORLD =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myDomain.net)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = DBSIDxx)
    I am accessing like MyName.WORLD ...
    What do I have to do to get this working ???
    Thanks for any comments!
    Best regards
    Frank Uray

    1) Please verify that there is only one tnsnames.ora file on your system.
    If there are several (other than in 'samples' directories), please make them all look the same and try again.
    2) If not, please post the contents of your tnsnames.ora AND sqlnet.ora files.
    Message was edited by:
    forbrich
    Re-read your original message and noteiced you posted the tnsnames.ora stuff.
    Your alias is 'MyName.world', therefore you want to access using the connect string such as
    SQLPLUS system/[email protected]
    If you want to use SQLPLUS system/password@myname (no .world) then either remove it from the alias or add the default_domain info in sqlnet.ora

  • Enterprise manager & sql* plus login failed

    hi
    this is the problem i encountered yesterday:
    there are server_3 and rs_16 machines which are in D1 domain and server_1 in W1 workgroup. server_3 and rs_16 has no oracle software whatsoever and on server_1 8i database exists. other machines with 8i clients, all in D1 domain, succesfully connect to server_1.
    i installed 10g database on server_3 machine; after installation i created a database db1. after the database was created, i tried to start enterprise manager (EM) and it failed (the database is not mounted ....), and i found out that tns listener wasn't created during the installation. so i created tns listener and started EM again and browser showed the proper page (username and login). so i entered sys as username, pswrd (created during the installation) and connect as sysdba. when i clicked on login button, the page refreshed but nothing happened, the same page (login) was still opened. i tried to connect from rs_16 and the same thing happened. this happened using internet explorer for opening EM. i tried to login as system, sysman but all in vain.
    then i installed 10g on rs_16, created db2 database and found out that tnsnames.ora file was missing. created db3 as well, and all went ok. started EM, tried to login and the same thing happened as on server_3, browser just refreshed the page.
    also have to say that i tried to connect to databases using sql* plus and login also failed.
    also tried using administration assistent for windows and tried to connect to db3. when i tried to connect as sys acount (database authentication) login failed, but when i used os authentication i succeeded.
    then i tried to start EM from another machine rs_13 (D1 domain) using internet explorer and i succeeded, there was no problem at all. after all, i installed mozilla firefox (1.0.6) on rs_16 and succesfully started EM for any database i wanted. but have to mention that i still can't connect to any db using sql* plus.
    rs_13 setup:
    - win 2000 + sp4
    - ie 6.0.2600.0000IC
    and rs_16:
    - win xp + sp2
    - ie 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2
    server_3:
    - windows server 2003
    on every machine i was logged in as top administrator so i had any possible permission.
    could anybody answer these questions:
    1. why tnsnames.ora wasn't created?
    2. why tns listener wasn't created?
    3. why couldn't i start EM using ie on server_3 and rs_16 and could on rs_13?
    4. why did login fail using sql* plus and why can't i still connect to any db using sql* plus? is it a problem of assigning some privileges or something else?
    5. why did login fail using database authentication while succeeded using windows authentication in administration assistent for windows? what should i do to make it succeed? is this all problem due to ie browser, win security or oracle security?
    6. why microsoft is giving me a hard time with their security?
    thanks for help in advance
    hope this post will help someone else as well !!

  • Pls help me.. unable to get past mac login sreen!!

    Hello people, This is my first post and after much searching i am praying someone can help..!
    I have a mac g5 dual, and i am having a really annoying problem, my mac keyboard is not working, sometimes some of the keys work but others dont, or none of the keys work, or when i press a button it types a different letter or types 2 or 3 at once!!
    Therefore i can not get past the login screen as the keys needed for thre password do not work!! not even when i try to log into admin!!
    I have purchased a new keyboard today, (wireless apple) but i can not get that to work as i need to pair it to the mac before it will work but i cant pair without getting past the login screen!!!
    typical that this should happen on my only couple of days off too!!
    pls HELP ME
    thanks in advance..

    Yeah, I tried every port available.
    Is there anyway at all i can get into the system settings with a shortcut on startup?
    Then again Im still not sure that the keys will work to use a shortcut.
    Its odd because i managed (just) to login earlier in the day, but the keyboard just seemed to get steadily worse until none of the keys worked!!
    Cheers Dale
    any other ideas??

  • SQL Plus login

    Installed Oracle 9i enterprise edition from disk set provided with course text on advanced database concepts.
    Received registration key from oracle but no user name or password to open a session on SQL Plus. Cannot logon.
    Does anyone have info on who to contact?

    I followed your suggestion and pulled up the configuration assistant. I managed to create a password without being sure of anything I was doing and voile!
    I was able to log on to SQL PLUS.
    Thanks for the tip!

  • Block Sql Plus Login

    Hi,
    I have database 8.05. For client server application on the client side we mention
    D:\ORACLE\BIN\F50RUN32.EXE c:\test\test.fmx test/test@test
    Now anyone can logon to sql plus and if he knows sql plus as the username and password is there. I dont want to remove sql plus from each machine and at the same time i dont want to user to logon to sql prompt.
    Operation system is windows NT.
    Rgds

    What you need to do is , give only CONNECT permissions to user TEST. So even if the user logs in SQLPLUS he wont be able to access any OBJECTS.
    ALSO you need to create another Oracle user , which will have all the necessary permissions.
    In your client application (FORMS), you need to connect using this new user after you have initially logged in using TEST user
    Hope this helps

  • SQL*Plus login problems

    Hi. I am just reading through my PL/SQL 101 book and exam guide for preparation for the 1Z0-007 exam. I have downloaded Oracle 9i and I cannot login to SQL+ at all. I want to use my database as a stand alone system for the time being until I can network my other computer with my new one.
    All I want is to get into SQL+ so that I can practice pl/sql code for the exam.
    Can anyone help me? What steps should I do?
    thank you, comments and solutions are greatly appreciated.
    Karin

    If you are connecting a local default database (which you may be if I make a guess at your configuration), you don't need to enter anything in the host string field. Just enter the username and password.
    If you are connecting to a remote database, or non-default database, you need to enter a connect string in the host strint field. To find your connect string, look in your tnsnames.ora file (in the network/admin directory) and you will see an entry for the default database you created. Use the value set for SERVICE_NAME.

  • [urgent]sql plus 's user login

    how do i know my sql plus login name and password? when i install...they never ask me to set my own login name and password...

    Hi 489652,
    Which version of oracle you are using?
    Oracle 8i & below sys password is change_on_install & system password is manager
    You can even login as internal with a password oracle.
    if 9i & above you need to provide oracle password for sys & system and no internal login.
    What ever version you use this should work as generic
    01. Login as oracle user in unix box in windows as admin.
    02. export ORACLE_SID=dbname in unix . set ORACLE_SID=dbname in windows
    03. sqlplus "/ as sysdba" you should be loggin as sys ..(as oracle admin)
    Moreover, please remember when you raise this kind of question try to include the version of oracle and OS.
    Cheers,

  • Oracle 9i Lite/Sql Plus Installation Instructions?

    I am having the same problem with install Oracle 9i Lite. Really I need to get SQL PLUS up and running. I am installing it in Windows 98 and would like to use it on a stand alone pc/home pc.
    I ended up just installing sql plus without net8 and other mobile server components because I don't know what the port name and hostname is. I am just trying to get sql plus to work.
    After just installing sql plus, I get the same login username/password/host string. I think you can log in as SYSDBA or SYSOPER but what is the password and host string. I am not running sql plus from a server/internet I would like it to be stand alone. I know the host string has something to do with what type connection is being used but I don't have any (other than aol dial up connection) so I would just like to run sql on a stand alone pc!!! HELP!!
    Dionne

    Did your SQL*Plus install include create a database to connect to? I think a quick thing to check would be:
    Do you have a valid tnsnames.ora in $ORACLE_HOME\network\admin
    (address = is on one line)
    ie:
    orcl =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = orcl.localhost)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = orcl.localhost)
    Where orcl is the name of the database you want to connect
    to and local host is your machine. (Check Network configuration). If you are on a network you will replace with orcl.mynet.com
    I think for a standalone SQL install they might expect you are on a NetWork and have a database to connect to. Maybe
    you should download the whole install for standalone use...
    9i and 8.1.7 are available for download. (8.1.7 is a little smaller and doesn't require as much memory depending on your home system)
    I'm not even sure what you are trying to do. Please post more details if this doesn't help.

Maybe you are looking for
