Unable to log in with sysdba privileges

Hi All,
I am not able to connect with sysdba privileges through the sql*plus on the remote machine running on Windows. It gives me the following error :
Connected to:

My OS : Solaris 64 bit (database running on Solaris machin)
Database : 10.2.0.2
Any idea, what's missing ?

Yogesh,
Did you try adding a new password file? In your pfile location, try this --
1) Remove the existing password (orapw<SID>) file
2) Generate a new password file - orapwd file=orapw<SID> password=<SYS_passwd>
Try reconnecting thru the SQL*Plus client.

New user with sysdba privilege gets connected as user sys

hi ,
I am using oracle 10g R2 . I have a user named test . I have provided sysdba privilege to this user . Now , when I login to this user as conn tkcsowner/password
it gets connected , I created a table in that , the table data is fine . But, when I login as conn tkcsowner/password as sysdba , it connects , if I execute show user it shows "user is sys" , and the table is not here .
My question is ............
1. if I login to tkcsowner as sysdba , where do I login actually , to sys account or to tkcsowner ?
2. I want to execute some stored procedures through tkcsowner , which requires sysdba privilege . But , how can I can execute those from tkcsowner , but not from sys ?
Any additional info on this would be appreciated . thank you.

My question is ............
1. if I login to tkcsowner as sysdba , where do I login actually , to sys account or to tkcsowner ?Yes, teh correct behavior. If you would use the o/s authentication, you would be connected as Sys user since Oralce would bypass the supplied username and password of yours over the prompt.
2. I want to execute some stored procedures through tkcsowner , which requires sysdba privilege . But , how can I can execute those from tkcsowner , but not from sys ?When you are going to connect with Sysdba role, you would be connected as Sys user. I am not sure what you exactly mean by saying that the procedure requires the Sysdba privilege? Procedure doesn't need any Sysdba privilege( there isn't such thing since its a role not a privilege) but the provilege of Execute on that procedure . So you do want to check it out what you are actually looking for and why?

How can I find exact username if I connected with sysdba privilege?

I granted sysdba privilge to a database user. I can connect that user as sysdba. From that users session, 'show user' command showing "SYS" and also username from v$session is also showing "SYS". How can I find actual username used for connecting the database as sysdba?

Thanks for the replay..
But my requirement is that in our production system auditors want to give separate username for each administrators (they are not recommending sys and system).
Normal dba privilege is not a problem. But for sysdba privilege every users are showing the user "SYS". How we can I identify which user is login to the database for a particular work if they connected as sysdba. How can I find which user did that (not just want the username "SYS", because all the administrators are identified by sys if they are connected as sysdba). If auditing is enabled how can I find the exact username. Because we are planning to give sysdba privilege to some of the administrators.
Also, is there any option to find the username, if one user is initiate shutdown of the database?First Please close the thread and keep questioning in only one thread.
then do not connect as sysdba

Unable to log in with BI Publisher

We have set up OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.6.4) to use init block security. However, our setup does allow users set up in the Weblogic LDAP server to log in as well.
Now we are trying to set up BI Publisher but are unable to make it work. Here are the symptoms:
1. On the first attempt, the user logged in but we saw error messages about being unable to access the /users/XXX web catalog folder. Following the suggestions of access denied for user to path /users/weblogic we deleted the folders and the .atr files and tried again.
2. Now we are getting "Login failed. Try again". Looking in the logs, I see the java.lang.NullPointerException at at oracle.xdo.servlet.security.BaseSecurityHandler.getPrincipalWithSawSession(BaseSecurityHandler.java:1278). I believe this is related to some earlier error messages:
unable to retrieve sudo session id [username: BISystemUser]
GlobalContext.getSudoSessionId: [class javax.xml.ws.ProtocolException: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused]
javax.xml.ws.ProtocolException: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
java.lang.RuntimeException: oracle.xdo.servlet.CreateException: Failed to retrieve saw login password
Error connecting to the Oracle BI Server: Could not connect to the Oracle BI Server because it is not running or is inaccessible. Please contact your system administrator.
Error retrieving user/group data from Oracle BI Server's User Population API.
Unable to create a system user connection to BI Server while running user population queries
It appears to me that BI Publisher is unable to contact OBIEE via the SOAP APIs. What is NOT clear to me is why: Is it because of some firewall rule or because the permissions are too restrictive? We did clamp down on permissions to restrict access to a bunch of features.
Is there some document that lists the privileges that BI Publsiher needs in order to log in?

Hi there,
Well.. If workaround 1 is not able to resolve your problem then you have to try other two workarounds available , first go for workaround 3 , if issue remains then as a last option you have to try workaround 2 , but before trying workaround 2 you should do a proper device backup using BlackBerry Desktop Software , or refer to this article regarding backup How To Backup Your BlackBerry

Unable to log in with Microsoft Account

I'm on Windows 7 Professional using the Skype desktop client. When I log in using my Skype name, I'm unable to see my Lync contacts. I was successful signing into my Microsoft Live account after several attempts yesterday. This morning when I booted up my laptop, I get an error that it cannot log in. If I sign into my Microsoft Live (Outlook) e-mail, I'm able to use the IM from the webmail client. This happens often with the desktop client. Any help would be much appreciated. This is so frustrating.

Try this:
Reset all Internet Explorer settings:

Help: My password no longer works, and I am unable to log in with my Apple ID

I have a macbook pro, and it has failed to start up for a few months until now. When I get to the log in screen, my old password no longer works. When I then try to reset it using my apple ID and password, an error message appears saying it cannot connect and to check my internet connection, but it gives me no option check or change the connection when this window is up. Additionally, I have tried going into recovery mode and restoring from a backup I have on an external drive which did not work, and reinstalling Yosemite all over again, but I get a message that the disk is encrypted and asks for the password (again, a problem).
If anyone has any advice on something new I could try I would greatly appreciate it!

Hi chc517,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on a couple things about your specific configuration. The message you mentioned about the disk being encrypted would seem to indicate that you may have File Vault enabled. If that is the case and you are having a login issue, you would need to use the File Vault recovery key to reset your login password instead of your Apple ID, as noted in the following article:
OS X Yosemite: FileVault recovery key

Unable to log on with apple ID - error message "an unknown error has occurred"

When I try and log on to apple website using my apple ID, I get an error message saying "an unknown error has occurred". How can I fix this?
I've changed my password several times and was able to successfully make a purchase from Itunes using new password, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

For whatever reason, I can now log in to the apps store with one of my ids. It says my other account no longer exists so I can not update pages and numbers. It will not let me rebuy these programs under the working account because my computer recognizes that I bought them before.

With Firefox 8.0.1 using Mageia 1, I am unable to log into Verizon mail or My Account. I can log in withFirefox 8.0 with PCLinux OS 2011.9 KDE.

I am using a Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop computer. I can log-into Verizon from Windows Vista Home Premium or any Linux version using Firefox 8.0, I am unable to log-in with Firefox 8.0.1 with Mageia Linux 1.
Cheers. Ray.

@corel: Many thanks for your response.
I did all the steps suggested by you, viz. clearing the cache and removing all the cookies of all the Google products. Unfortunately, when I tried to log into my G-mail account, the original problem I had posted, '''just returned'''! ! So, I have not been able to successfully log on to G-mail from Mozilla Firefox 8, the current version I am using.
In the mean while, I found that logging in to G-mail from the Google Chrome browser works fine. But I am not happy with the Chrome, as it lacks many of the elegant features of Firefox.
Further, from the HELP forum of G-mail,
I found that they have updated G-mail to "G-Mail2" and now to "Better G-Mail2". But I was unable to get any information on how to create an account under either of those newer versions from Firefox.
So, I have to sadly report that your suggested solution did not work, nor was I able to log in to any of the newer versions.
Please HELP! Please HELP! Please HELP!
With warm regards.

Can no longer log in with ZSH as default shell

After the last few updates, I'm unable to log in with zsh in ANY terminal. Nothing in my configuration has changed since the problem started occuring. In fact, even removing my zsh configuration files has no effect and still won't log in properly. Any ideas?
Edit: solved this by removing a certain file called "history.LOCK" in my .zsh folder.

Create a new user for oracle 10G ASM instance with sysdba system privilege

Hi,
In our Golden Gate Project, we require the SYS user credential to connect to the Oracle 10g ASM instance to read the database transaction logs.But our client is not providing the SYS user credential to connnect to ASM instance.
I'm getting the error message "ORA-01109: database not open",When I tried to create a new user using the below the steps in oracle 10g ASM instance
1. Login using "sqlplus / as sysdba"
2. Create user <username> identified by <password>;
But in oracle 11g ASM instance, I'm able to create new user by connecting the ASM instance with SYSASM role without issues.
Is there is any workaround to create a new user with sysdba system privilege in oracle 10g ASM instance?.
Thanks in advance .

Hi,
Recreate the password file for the ASM instance as follows:
Unix:
orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/dbs/PWD<SID> password=<sys_password>
Windows:
orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/database/PWD<SID>.ora password=<sys_password>
Now sys password is reset, we are ready to use sys for ASM management. I decided to create another user ASMDBA as I tried above.
SQL> create user ASMDBA identified by test01;
User created.
SQL> grant SYSASM, SYSOPER to ASMDBA;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> select * from v$pwfile_users;
USERNAME SYSDBA SYSOPE SYSASM
SYS TRUE TRUE TRUE
ASMDBA FALSE TRUE TRUE
Please see this link : http://orachat.com/how-to-change-asm-sys-password-creating-sysasm-user-11g/
Thank you

ADDM Report is not produced by SQL DEV 4.0 if logged in user does not have SYSDBA privilege

Hello -
In SQLDEV 4.0 (Early Adapter), I logged in as user with no SYSDBA privilege granted. But ADVISOR granted and execute on DBMS_ADDM granted and "select any dictionary" granted, etc.
Then i go to the menu View --> DBA --> Performance --> Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor
Select ADDM report from the available choices.
Out of 3 menu options: Summary, Findings and ADDM Report, I can see the first two, but I am getting a grey screen for ADDM Report.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If i do exactly the same but login as SYSDBA, then ADDM Report can be produced and can be seen. So the issue is in the missing grants and privileges.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The goal that we are pursuing in our shop is to empower developers to work with ADDM reports by having them login as non-SYSDBA user.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Please advise what privilege should be granted to get this working for non-SYSDBA login
The same user can successfully execute $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/addmrpt.sql and produce file with complete ADDM report. But not able to get the ADDM from SQL DEV 4.0
Thank you,
vr

Thank you, Phil.
This worked for me in my quick test case.
Great help, as DBA group wants to allow NON-privileged users (like Developers and QA) to execute ADDM on demand.
Here is my observation for RAC database with two instances.
I have followed your instructions:
"Performance / Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor -> Run ADDM"
Then
- Uncheck box "By Creating New Snapshot" (this box was checked by default)
- Provide new "Task Name" (let's say "vr1")
- Select "Start Snapshot" (this is where my first confusion is: each screen shot # is shown twice, may be because i have two instances of RAC)
- Select "End Snapshot" (the same way: each SNAP_ID is shown twice)
- and finally APPLY button is pressed
This creates 3 reports:
vr1
vr1$1 (for instance_id=1)
vr1$2 (for instance_id=2_
So, my question is: this expected and normal behavior of the tool?
What if my RAC database has 8 instances? Then I would generate 9 separate ADDM reports?
Is this correct observation?
Thank you,
vr
