Re: How to change the password of USER "INTERNAL"?

Hi,

Password of internal is usually in password file, not in the database. Password file is named pwd<sid>.ora. Program to create new password file is orapwd80.exe (digits can be different in your case):

E:\ORANT\BIN>ORAPWD80/EXE /?
Usage: orapwd file=<fname> password=<password> entries=<users>

  where
    file - name of password file (mand),     password - password for SYS and INTERNAL (mand),     entries - maximum number of distinct DBA and OPERs (opt),   There are no spaces around the equal-to (=) character.

Shutdown database before changing password file.
