• Unable to connect to the database instance: ORA-28001: the password has expired

  Hi all
  
  I'm on oracle 11g grid.
  
  
  I get unable to connect to the database instance: ORA-28001: the password has expired (ERROR of DBD: OCISessionBegin) error.
  
  I checked and found that my user dbsnmp expired password. I found the page on the grid control to change the password of user dbsnmp.
  
  but I want to know. If I changed dbsnmp password using the grid control. Is there any other task I have to do after the change of user dbsnmp password.
  
  Please let me know.
  
  
  Thank you

  Hi PK,.

  If GC can reuse the monitored GENERAL to connect to the database account I can't think of anything you should do.
  The database, what has happened is an 11g database? If so the security policy has been changed in this version, which means that in half a year you will still have a locked account of DBSNMP.

  If your company security policy allows, you can avoid this by changing the password_life_time to an unlimited number of default profile:
  change the default profile limit password_life_time unlimited;

• Unable to connect to the database when installing BI EE 11 g

  I want to install Oracle BI Enterprise Edition 11g Windows XP service pack 3.
  I used successfully of the repository creation tool to create the schema DEV_BIPLATFORM.
  
  Then I ran the main installation of Oracle BI program.
  "To halfway through the stage of" details of the database "requires the connection string, the user name and the password.
  I enter in these exactly as they should be, but still get the error:
  INST-08029: unable to connect to the database with the given credentials.
  
  The details that I use are:
  connection string: ltest2:1521:dwRialto
  username: DEV_BIPLATFORM
  password: DEV_BIPLATFORM
  where ltest2 is a Linux SS5 host running Oracle 11.1.0.6 EE. The service name is dwRialto.
  
  Physical connectivity is definitely ok, as evidenced by the fact that I get error 'INST-08035' if I change the name of the service for something not valid. Also, I get a different error, 'INST-08031' if I change the user name or password to something invalid. I have also granted SYSDBA and DBA DEV_BIPLATFORM, but still does not work.
  
  In addition, to be sure, I installed and executed on the same Windows PC SQLDeveloper - and that works very well, using the same credentials.
  
  Why the 11g BI Setup does not accept these credentials? I can't further with the installation until it does.

  Hello
  We had the same problem an hour ago
  What we did was drop the user through the official way to the rcu, re-create the user but this time with a different password (in our case, so DEV_BIPLATFORM/oracle)
  and then we continued without problem :)

  Good luck

  Windows XP is not supported for client components not, I recommend that you install on an operating system that is supported so usually, when there is trouble connecting to SQL Server, it is down from TCP/IP not been activated, also correct for a static port, make sure that no firewalls are in place.

  Hi Mathieu,

  Thanks for the comments. I just got an update of Oracle on the SR with a few more instructions on different things to try/run.

  I met problems with Weblogic in step 1 and could not understand the multitude of possible causes. After some googling I found others who has ended up just restart that did the trick. It worked for me as well as far as I can see now. I'll do some tests to check, but well.

  Hello

  This is what has been done on my previous post on the basin of the port and the listening port you are trying to connect, as above, that you use 70 portpool was offset... This is what did not create a connection on port 1526 (which means chicken port 5)

  anyway nice to hear that the problem is now resolved
