This is my first attempt at Oracle Database.

OS: Windows XP Pro sp3

Install went ok. Specified a database Username and Application Express Username. Same password for both.

Initially I was able to log in no problem. But have not been able to log in again. I am totally locked out and don't know what password it is expecting.

Have tried
c:\SQLPLUS / as sysdba
SQL> ALTER USER SYS identified by newpswd

didn't work

c:\lsnrctl stop
c:\lsnrctl start

didn't work.

Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.
