Access to SYSDBA

JobiAug 10 2012 — edited Aug 10 2012
Hi,

Please need some help with sysdba access.
I can't connect to oracle apps R12 database prod(fresh) installation on windows xp with sys/default pwd: change_on_install.)
I have tried from cmd prompt but still to no avail:
sqlplus /nolog
sql> conn / as sysdba(even with quotes)
enter user name= system
enter pwd= default pwd

I can easily connect as system/default pwd from sqlplus.
But using Alter cmd in sqlplus gives error:
Password change for SYS is disallowed
Even though I was able to grant DBA role to system but still cannot connect as SYSDBA

My O/S account is part of the ORA_DBA group.

Any idea will help?
