Pro*Cobol pre-compiler password limits

  The following is some background information. The question comes at the end.

We are running Oracle 10.2.0.4, using MF Cobol and the Oracle pre-compiler on an IBM AIX platform.

The development group is having some issues with passwords when compiling COBOL programs and the pre-compiler terminates with the following message:

ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

The password is greater than 14 characters. We have a requirement that all passwords must be 14 characters or greater for normal non-privileged users and 15 or greater for privileged users (DBA or other users with super system privileges).

This happens here at the development shop when we attempt to compile an MF Cobol program first running it through the Oracle Pre-Compiler for COBOL.

Howdy, Stranger!
