: About 2 months ago I installed Oracle 9i personal edition on my laptop
: having windows xp home edition. I followed instructions; downloaded the
: zip files into disk1, disk2 , disk3 , unzipped them, ran the
: installation successfully.
:
: I was working fine on SQL for some 15 days. Now when I'm trying to log
: in, I can't proceed. The system doesnot recognize any username/password
: combination.
:
: Is it possible that the s/w expires some days after installation?
:
: While I was downloading , I wondered why oracle would offer free
: software to download?
:
: Or am I doing something wrong?
:
: Any help would be greatly appreciated......thanks a ton.

passwords can be set to expire, but oracle does not do that be default on production, trial, or free sw

if you post some specific errors, you could probably get some help.... Received on Thu Feb 16 2006 - 14:34:15 CST
