After installing oracle10g and creating the Oracle database, you want to log in with the user Scott that comes with the database to see if the connection is successful.
Problem:
In the cmd command, when you log in with "Sqlplus Scott/tiger", you are always prompted with the following message: error:ora-28000: The account is locked.
Workaround:
At the cmd command prompt, you can log in directly to Oracle and enter the following command:
1. Log in as Administrator
Sqlplus/as Sysdba;
2. Then execute the following command to unlock the Scott account:
sql> alter user Scott account unlock;
Shows that the user has changed so that the unlocked operation is complete.
Next, you can also reset the password to the Scott user.
3. Change Scott's login password:
Sql> alter user Scott identified by ADMINCSS;
Show that the user has changed (ADMINCSS is the new password)
4. Test if SCOTT/ADMINCSS can log in successfully
Sql> Conn Scott/admincss
The display is connected.
