hi all,

i run the script utlpwdmg.sql in sys schema to enable the oracle password complexity function.
but on altering the password of any user it gives error if no punctuation is included (as said in function definition) also on including any defined punctuation mark it is also giving error saying invalid option.

what may be the problem..
any suggestions.

saurabh

Jack,

This info is in the SQL Reference manual under the Create User command:

Passwords must follow the rules described in the section "Schema Object Naming Rules", unless you are using Oracle's password complexity verification routine. That routine requires a more complex combination of characters than the normal naming rules permit. You implement this routine with the UTLPWDMG.SQL script, which is further described in Oracle8i Administrator's Guide.

The "Schema Object Naming Rules" section is towards the end of chapter 2 in the same manual.

HTH,
