Dear Fellow DBA's, I have 2 queries. Query 1 I have a development database Oracle 816 under winNT. I tried to connect as sysdba. But it is giving insuffient privileges. When I queried the v$pwfile_users table, there are no rows selected. how can I add users to it. I tried recreating passwordfile. But the same problem. Query 2 I had a test database 8.1.7 under WinNT. Due to some reasons I had to reload NT and also Oracle. But I loaded Oracle 8.1.6. I had my database intact. I shutdown the database before reloading NT. To my surprise I created the service and started the db and found working. Can anyone tell me how this can happen.
