Case Sensitive Passwords in Oracle Database 11g


Case Sensitive Passwords in Oracle Database 11g


Case sensitive passwords (and auditing) are a default feature of newly created Oracle 11g databases. The Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) allows you to revert these settings back to the pre-11g functionality during database creation.

The
SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON initialization parameter gives control over case sensitive passwords. If existing applications struggle to authenticate against 11g, you can use the ALTER SYSTEM command to turn off this functionality.

SQL> SHOW PARAMETER SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
sec_case_sensitive_logon             boolean     TRUE
SQL>


SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON = FALSE;

System altered.

Solution of problem: Resultset Exceeds the Maximum Size (100 MB)

Solution of problem: Resultset Exceeds the Maximum Size (100 MB) I was running a select statement in PL/SQL Developer. it was a short query but the data volume that the query was fetching was huge. But when ever i Click the button Fetch Last Page or press 'ALT+End' button a message box comes after a while saying: Then I started looking for the exact reason of this sort of problem in Google. When I realized there was no direct solution in the web, I started looking the PL/SQL Developer Software menu and found the ultimate solution.

To change this parameter you have to go to the following location: 1. Goto Edit Menu and click ' PL/SQL Beautifier Options '. A new window will open. 2. Click SQL Window of " Window Types ". 3. Now Change the value of "Maximum Result Set Size( 0 is unlimited)"  ...
