password file

Eduardo FreitasSep 15 2025

First of all, I'm not a dba, so maybe the answers will obvious but I need ask

I created a db19 with RU .27 using dbca, all standards, nothing special.

if i login sqlplus sys@orcl as sysdba, it works if the databse is mount, but what I want is to startup the database remotely, so I create the static entry in the listener.ora. Now when i try sys@orcl as sysdba and the database is not running I'm getting ORA-1017 invalid username/password …

I believe the statis entry in the listener.ora is OK because if I remove it says something like listener not listening for that service

any tip?

SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile;

NAME TYPE VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE

SQL> SELECT * FROM V$PASSWORDFILE_INFO;

FILE_NAME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FORMAT IS_AS CON_ID
------ ----- ----------
