ORA-01017: invalid username/password. Please help. [message #126711] Wed, 06 July 2005 05:22

I am running the Oracle Application Server 10g Infrastructure on Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (taroon). I have just recently installed Oracle Developer Suite 10g on a Windows 2000 Professional (sP4) machine.

I have modified the sqlnet and the tnsnames files in C:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin. The sqlnet.ora file now contains these lines:

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP, TNSNAMES, ONAMES, HOSTNAME)
DEFAULT_SDU_SIZE = 8761

And the tnsnames.ora file now contains these lines:

EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = HOSTNAME)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = PLSExtProc)
)
)

INFRA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.5.163.22)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = infra.us.brocadero.com)
)
)


Whenever I try to connect to the Oracle Discoverer Administrator, I get the "Failed to connect to database - ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied" error. I have tried all manner of username/password combinations - "oracle/password", "ias_admin/password1", "root/password", sysdba/password", sys/password", "orcladmin/password" - but I still keep getting the access denied error.

Is there any way that I can access the correct username/password combination from the Oracle infrastructure? Is it a problem on the Windows side?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

cheers,
