connect / as sysdba doesn't connect

edited Dec 3, 2009 2:13AM in Database Security Products (MOSC) 11 commentsAnswered ✓
 I have Windows Vista service Pack 2. Whenever I try to connect sqlplus / as sysdba I get insufficient privileges. My user is the owner of the installation and under ora_dba group. Also when I try to create a new database I get the same error through DBCA.

I believe this was working in the past because I managed to create my database. I can't create a new one though or connect as  sysdba. When I enter credentials sys/pass as sysdba it connects. I have turned UAC off.

Anybody has any idea why?

Howdy, Stranger!
