USERNAME, PASSWORD OF ORACLE9i SQL PLUS UNKNOWN

I installed Oracle 9i Lite Edition. The SQL Plus installed with it is not working with some default username, passwords like scott, system and internal.
There wasn't a tool in the installation that configured a username/password.
Plz help As I am unable to log in and I have my syllabus pending.

you may have better luck in the "installation" forum:

  • Username password works in SQL Plus not in SQL Developer

    I have SQL Dev 1.2.1. It works fine with some databases, but with two databases with logons managed by Oracle Enterprise User it does not work. I receive an Ora 01017 error invalid username password. The user name and password work fine from SQL Plus and from a third party tool. I have a local developer client environment installed, so am using TNS. SQL Developer was installed before the client environment. I was not trying to access this database before the client environment install. I was using the basic connection before the client install. Neither basic or TNS connection works for this particular database.
    Any ideas?

    We have changed the password and it still does not work. There are no special characters in the password.
    I am tempted to think the problem is the jdbc driver versions. The logon for Enterprise user controlled databases stopped working after I installed the thick client Oracle developer. I have tried to find the threads with information on disabling the thick client jdbc but have not found them. I also have tried to enter a URL for the thin client without success. One of our DBAs is saying that the 11g clients are broken and he is in communication with Oracle about it. He says 10g works but 11g does not.
    Any further help would be appreciated.

  • How to Hide password when invoking sql plus from command promt?

    When i try to open sql plus in command prompt window and enter the sqlplus command follwed by username/password@connection string, the password is not hidden.
    How do I get it to show **** instead of displaying password characters out?
    Also, what is the command to clear screen : when I try cls or clear screen, I get a windows memory exception of somekind and the only option there is to kill the command window.
    Any tips on getting around this?
    Thanks a lot for your time and help.

    Can you please give more details on how to not enter password when calling sqlplus from command window like you are saying?
    I tried this :
    sqlplus username/ @connection string -->Hit Enter : it asks for password but does not recognise the connectionstring to connect to.
    sqlplus username/ -->Hit Enter: It does same thing again.asks for password but gives tns adapter error after the password is entered.Leave out the slash:
    sqlplus username@connect_string

  • SQL*Plus variable assignment works for 8i but not 9i

    We have scripts that connect to each database on the box and perform database tasks nightly. The scripts first set the environment then connects to each database with SQL*Plus. This works for 8i but fails in the recently created 9i environment. (Unix Solaris environment)
    Because the SQL*Plus connection appears in many areas in the scripts, we assign the following connection string to a variable:
    SQLPLUS="/usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba'"
    Export SQLPLUS
    echo "$SQLPLUS"
    (This echo out correctly: /usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba')
    It fails when the script calls the assigned variable:
    $SQLPLUS <<-EOF
    with the following error:
    Usage: SQLPLUS [ [<option>] [<logon>] [<start>] ]
    where <option> ::= -H | -V | [ [-L] [-M <o>] [-R <n>] [-S] ]
    <logon> ::= <username>[<password>][@<connect_string>] | / | /NOLOG
    <start> ::= @<URI>|<filename>[.<ext>] [<parameter> ...]
    "-H" displays the SQL*Plus version banner and usage syntax
    "-V" displays the SQL*Plus version banner
    "-L" attempts log on just once
    "-M <o>" uses HTML markup options <o>
    "-R <n>" uses restricted mode <n>
    "-S" uses silent mode
    However, if I remove the SQLPLUS variable assignment and changed all occurrence of
    $SQLPLUS <<-EOF to
    /usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba' <<-EOF
    Then the script runs successfully. But this solution is cumbersome.
    Any ideas as to how to have the script work with assigning the SQLPLUS variable????
    Any help is appreciated.

    I has an immediate suspicion it might be related to the issue
    mentioned in
    http://otn.oracle.com/support/tech/sql_plus/htdocs/sub_var2.html#2_7
    but this proved wrong: the SP2-306 still occurs in the latest
    SQL*Plus.
    I wonder what version of 8i you had working? With an old SQL*Plus
    8.1.7.0 my connection failed the same as in 9.2 and 10i.
    My solution was to do:
      SQLPLUS='sqlplus -s'
      UNPW='/ as sysdba'
      $SQLPLUS "$UNPW" &lt;&lt;EOF
      EOFThis worked in 9.2.0.5, 10.1.0.2 and 8.1.7.0.
    One common security risk on UNIX remains: putting the username and
    password on the command line. On some systems a "ps" command will
    show the password to any user. If OS authentication cannot be used
    for connection, perhaps putting the username/password in the SQL
    script may be more secure?
    A final note is that in SQL*Plus 10g, no quotes are needed around
    AS SYSDBA, i.e.
      sqlplus / as sysdba works from the OS prompt, whereas in 9.2 you need to do
      sqlplus "/ as sysdba"This makes a solution easy:
      SQLPLUS="/usr/oracle/product/10.1.0/bin/sqlplus -s xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba"-- CJ

  • Oracle SQL*PLUS Log-In Problems

    I installed Oracle 9i Standard Edition yesterday and I logged in fine with my sys and system username and password in Oracle SQL*PLUS.
    Today when I type in the same username/password, it doesn't let me access the software and gives me "error 01033: Oracle initialization or shutdown in progress" and shuts down in three tries...
    I am not sure why so...any help?

    Like the error message says, the Oracle initialization is in progress. That means that it can't log you in because it is still busy starting up. If you try to logon three times before it is done starting up, it will exit the logon screen. Try waiting a while, perhaps a few minutes, before you try to logon. The slower your system is, the longer it may take to start up. For example, if you are using Windows on a PC, every time you start your computer, it starts your Oracle database along with everything else that is started automatically and, if you have a lot of stuff that loads on startup, it may take several minutes.

  • Sql Plus Help! (the window remain open)

    I'm currently using sql plus to export data from oracle to text with spool command, in this way:
    sqlplus user/[email protected] @F:\pathtosql\query.sql (this line is in a bat file)
    where the file query.sql contain the spool comand
    spool F:\textfile.txt;
    set head on;
    set pagesize 0;
    set linesize 512;
    set trimspool on;
    set feedback off;
    set termout off;
    select field1, field2, ..., fieldn
    from table;
    spool off;
    exit;
    mi problem is when I run .bat (contining the sqlplus command) and for some reason the source database is not available the windows remain open requesting for a logon information, I want the windows close if are connection problem
    Can I do that with sqlplus
    Thanx

    Specify the -L command line option to SQL*Plus, i.e.:
    sqlplus -L username/password@db @blah.sql
    (this will prevent the second prompt for username/password if the initial login is unsuccessful for any reason, like an invalid password).

  • Connecting Oracle using SQL Plus in command window through LDAP settings?

    Hi
    Just like to know if it is possible to connect Oracle using SQL Plus with connection type as LDAP.
    Generally we connect to Oracle in cmd window as
    username/password@DBServiceName
    Similarly is it possible to connect Oracle using SQL plus cmd window using LDAP configuration settings.
    Eg:-
    If my LDAP server is oid:123:456
    Context is: cn=OracleContext,dc=abcdefgh,dc=com
    DBService is: xyz
    Regards
    jc

    Specify the -L command line option to SQL*Plus, i.e.:
    sqlplus -L username/password@db @blah.sql
    (this will prevent the second prompt for username/password if the initial login is unsuccessful for any reason, like an invalid password).

  • SQL* Plus not compatible with Suse Linux 10

    hi! i am using suse linux 10 and since i lost my sys/ system password i need to restore it using " / as sysdba " to login, but the problem is when i tried to install the sql* plus it says that "it does not support my platform", is there another way i can reset back my system password with out sql* plus? or can anyone guide me in the installation of sql* plus instant client? thanks a lot! :-)

    i'm sorry for the confusion. i tried to install sql* plus but running the script to install it gave me an error that "it does not support my platform, it only supports red hat, suse 9.... etc." my os is suse linux 10 (oss) and am using oracle xe... so meaning i just wanted to install sql* plus to have a command-line utility to use " / as sysdba " to reset my sys/ system password. because i can't remember my sys/ system password that's why i can't get in to http://localhost:8080/apex site to change my oracle db. thanks for the reply!

  • Username and password in SQL Plus

  • What are the defaul username and password for SQL Plus ?

    hello, what are the defaul username and password for SQL Plus ? i'm using the client 11.2.0.1

    You'll need to download the full database installation files for the platform you are using. They are two .zip files, about 2.2 gig total.
    I'm not going to give you the link because you should be able to find it easily. You have to read and accept the license agreement anyway.
    When you install it, you'll be given several options about the type of database you want.
    But before you install anything, you should read the installation manual for your platform.
