"ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied" when using "Database Conversion"

Troubleshooting


Problem

Administrator launches "Controller Configuration" and selects database connection. Administrator clicks 'tick' (check) box - the expected "Connection succeeded" message appears. Administrator then clicks on the 'play' button, which launches "Database Conversion". Administrator browses to UDL file, and then clicks 'Connect'. An error appears.

Symptom

The error may vary depending on the environment:

Example #1:

** ERROR: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

Example #2:

** ERROR: java.sql.SQLException: çağrıda geçersiz bağımsız değişkenler
