ora-01017 invalid username/password

edited Mar 29, 2024 2:36PM in Database Administration (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered

Hello

I have an Oracle database version 12.2.0.1 running on Oracle Solaris 11.3

Due to security audit, we had to change the password of the oracle owner user and password for sys

After changing the passwords, I am not able to access the database internally

If I run sqlplus / as sysdba locally on my server, i get the error

sqlplus / as sysdba ora-01017 invalid username/password permission denied

But if I connect remotely either using toad or " sqlplus sys/password@sid as sysdba" , then i am able to connect to the db

Has anyone ever encountered this issue?

What can be done to get this resolved?
