ALTER USER sys IDENTIFIED BY new_password; not working

BsiennApr 14 2014 — edited Apr 15 2014

HI all!

I have seen many post about this but non of them is working.

I am very new to oracle, basically not yet started bcoz the environment is not installed/working.

I have installed Oracle database 12c EE for learning purpose.

during installation it asked for location & database name and password.

the default databasename was orcl. i left it as it is. and entered aRootPass as password.

but i can only login thorough sqlplus system/aRootPass

or in sql developer also with with same credential. but not with sys/sysdba with aRootPass as password.

But when i do sqlplus / as sysdba i can login into sqlplus but not able to connect in sql developer.

after sqlplus / as sysdba

i tried this query:

ALTER USER sys IDENTIFIED BY sysNewPass;

output => user altered

but i cannot login in sqlplus or developer. with sqlplus sysdba/sysNewPass

ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

please guide.
