ORA-01017: invalid username/password; how to find out orapwd files 's pwd

user569151Jul 6 2012 — edited Jul 6 2012
Hi, gurus,

I have this error after I copied primary db orapwd files over to standby instance and tried to log in sys as sysdba :
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied


Is this means the sys password I provided is not the one generated as per orapwd utility?

however I can log in to sys/password as sysdba if I set the oracle sid environemnt to that db.

Anybody help here?
Thanks.
