Re: Lost the internal password of a db

Hallo Johan,

the internal password is situated in a file in the filesystem.

The standard path for this file is $ORACLE_HOME/DATABASE. There you can find pwd<example>.ora. Example is standing for the name of your instance.

With the program orapwd you can build a new file with a new password (before working you can save the old file).

Especially like this orapwd file=pwd<example>.ora password=<example> entries=5.
