Password column encrypted using DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT MD5

edited Dec 2, 2014 10:00AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered

We have a existing 9i database running on windows platform. One schema holds tables for a custom application. One of the tables contains users information as userid and passwords. The passwords are stored in encrypted format using "DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT MD5".

Now we have to move the existing schema to a Oracle 11g database running on Linux Platform. Everything seems good except the application user's login. The users when try logging into the application receive "wrong password" message. In order for them to work i had to nullify the password column and reset all user accounts to empty password. However this is not how I want it.

Howdy, Stranger!
