List,
I have an installation of Oracle 8.1.6 on a DBA test server where svrmgrl
"connect internal" seems to want a password...
Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.8 Generic February 2000
Configured oracle environment aliases...
Alias SID Oracle Home
----- --- -----------
dba816 dba816 /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6
dba817 dba817 /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.7
$ id
uid=301(oracle) gid=300(dba)
$ groups

$ env | grep ORACLE
ORACLE_BASE=/Volumes/app/oracle
$ dba816
dba816 $ env | grep ORACLE

I know that the usual reason for this is that the account running svrmgrl is
not a member of the appropriate unix group (usually "dba" or as specified at
installation time) but this is not the case here. On this server I have
Oracle 8.1.6 (Home = /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6) and Oracle 8.1.7
(Home = /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.7). My login script sets up aliases
for each SID listed in /var/opt/oracle/oratab. These aliases use the oraenv
script with environment variable ORAENV_ASK=NO to set appropriate values for
ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME and PATH etc. Other than that, the environment is
exactly the same regardless of what SID I switch to (see log above).
However "connect internal" asks for a password for Oracle 8.1.6 but does not
ask for one for Oracle 8.1.7. I am pretty sure that I specified that the
group name be "dba" for 8.1.6 and 8.1.7 so that should not be the issue.
Can anybody give me some pointers of other things to look at to try and
resolve the problem???
Thanks,
Ken
