Enter the following information:
Database SID: ARJU
Listener port number: 1521
Password for SYS user:
Password for DBSNMP user: ------Here I have given a
Invalid username/password.
Password for DBSNMP user:
Invalid username/password.
It continues to invoke password until I press ctrl+C.
Though I was giving correct password it does not accept DBSNMP password. I got tried, I search through google but did not get any clue. Even to be more sure I have changed DBNMP password though database and then tried but no result , the problem continues.
Then what I did is I have given password inside "" Double quotes and that worked. :)

THANK YOU! I can't believe you found this way... THANKS!
ReplyDeleteThanks from Ireland. I have been hiding the absence of an EM on a particular instance from my boss for the last 2 days.
ReplyDeletephew.
F.Y.I., using double quotes does not enter a correct password, it simply bypasses that step. Should the DBSNMP or SYSMAN passwords be needed in the operation of Enterprise Manager, they will fail upon using the "" to bypass.
