sqlplus / as sysdba [ORA-01017]

edited Jun 14, 2024 1:53PM in Database Administration (MOSC) 22 commentsAnswered

Hello there,

I have been having problem trying to logon "sqlplus / as sysdba". It used to work without prompting me a username/password. In the last couple days after I started Oracle, it started to prompt a username password and I am not able to login now.

This is the behavior I am experiencing:
[oracle@server dbs]$ sqlplus / as sysdba

SQL*Plus: Release 19.0.0.0.0 - Production on Wed Jun 12 13:30:59 2024
Version 19.3.0.0.0

Enter user-name: sys

Enter user-name: sys
Enter password:

Howdy, Stranger!
