Oracle 11g new install - unable to login

678242Jan 5 2009 — edited Sep 8 2011
Subject says it all, during the install, I provided it with a password and changed nothing for any features, left all default.
Everything installed great, but when I use the Database Control, I can't login using admin and the password I supplied during the initial setup.
I have searched the docs to see if I can find out if there is a different password and no luck.
Any pointers would be great, I hate to have to uninstall everything and start over but I will if I have too.
Thanks

Hi, @albert-chao
Please assume all the tables are created.
No; whenever you have a question, actually post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data, and the exact results you want from that data. For DML questions (such as INSERT) the results will be what the changed table looks like after the DML is completed.

You don't assign SELECTed data to a variable via assignment statement. You use INTO clause:

Declare
tot_records number(10);
records_loaded number(10);
process_start_time timestamp;
begin
select count(1) into tot_records from employees;
insert into department select * from employees;
records_loaded := sql%rowcount;
process_start_time := current_timestamp;
insert into summary(total,tot_loads,start_time) values(tot_records,records_loaded,process_start_time);
end;

Also why are you inserting employee data into department table???

Hi, [Albert Chao](/ords/forums/user/Albert Chao)

tot_records := select count(1) into lv_count from employees;

won't work in PL/SQL; you can't have SELECT immediately after :=.
Do something like this instead:

	select  count (*)
	into 	tot_records
	from 	employees;

I have tried but not able insert the values into the summary table.
In this case, the mistake was so obvious that we didn't need more information from you. But in general, if something "doesn't work", you won't get a lot of help if you just say "it doesn't work". You need to tell us exactly what is not working. Does compilation fail? (It would, in this case - with an error message pointing exactly to the place in the code where the error is.) Does the compilation succeed, but then you get an error thrown when you execute the block? Does execution go through, but you get the wrong result? Etc.
Please keep this in mind next time you ask a question (here or on any other forum). Also, make sure to always state your database version - in many cases (even though not in your problem here), that is the key piece of information.
