ORA-28374: typed master key not found in wallet (TDE)

fjuedes-OracleApr 27 2010 — edited Feb 25 2011
Hi ALL,

i have installed the new Oracle Database 11g release 2 on a Windows XP machine.

-- Fresh installation --

When i try to configure TDE by generating the master key with:

ALTER SYSTEM SET ENCRYPTION KEY IDENTIFIED BY 'ver2felt';

The Database throws the error message:

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28374: typed master key not found in wallet

BUT: The wallet file is created in the directory $ORACLE_BASE\admin\$ORACLE_SID\wallet and i can open it with the Oracle Wallet Manager. The secret store contains the DB-Encryption Key and the Masterkey.

When i restart the Database i can open the wallet with

ALTER SYSTEM SET ENCRYPTION WALLET OPEN IDENTIFIED BY "ver2felt";

I am able to encrypt columns (have not yet tested a tablespace) but i am not able to close the wallet:

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET ENCRYPTION WALLET CLOSE IDENTIFIED BY "ver2felt";
ALTER SYSTEM SET ENCRYPTION WALLET CLOSE IDENTIFIED BY "ver2felt"
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28374: typed master key not found in wallet


SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET ENCRYPTION WALLET CLOSE;
ALTER SYSTEM SET ENCRYPTION WALLET CLOSE
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28390: auto login wallet not open

It can't be, that i have to bounce the Database to close the wallet, can it? - After i start the Database, the wallet is closed.

Any ideas? - Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Best regards from the city of Industry,
Frank/2
