I have recently created a new instance using the following script;

SET ORACLE_SID=RATO

oradim80 -delete -sid RATO

oradim80 -new -sid RATO -startmode auto -intpwd RATO -maxusers 100 -pfile v:RATOinitRATO.ora

svrmgr30 @v:RATOSQL_create_RATO.sql
svrmgr30 @v:RATORATO_deftsp.sql
svrmgr30 @v:RATORATO_rollback.sql
svrmgr30 @v:RATORATO_ddpls.sql
svrmgr30 @v:RATORATO_user.sql

The main script to create RATO is as follows;

REM Neil Bennett February 2003

CONNECT internal/RATO
SPOOL v:RATORATO_build.log

STARTUP NOMOUNT pfile=v:RATOinitRATO.ora

CREATE DATABASE RATO
MAXLOGFILES 255
MAXDATAFILES 255
MAXLOGMEMBERS 4
ARCHIVELOG
DATAFILE 'v:RATORATO_SYSTEM.ora' SIZE 100 M
LOGFILE GROUP 1 ('v:RATORATO_LOG_G1.ora') SIZE 100 M
,GROUP 2 ('v:RATORATO_LOG_G2.ora') SIZE 100 M

CHARACTER SET WE8ISO8859P1;

SPOOL OFF
quit

I'm trying to connect to the instance directly on the server via SQL*PLUS using the username SYSTEM, password MANAGER and Host String RATO. I understood the username and password above to be set by default when the instance was created. However, I an unable to connect and get an error message returned about being unable to connect to the SID descriptor. I think the TNSNAMES.ORA file has the right SID listed.

Can anyone advise please or tell me the default passwords? I can supply the TNSNAMES and LISTENER files for checking if necessary.

Thanks

Neil

default accounts are
sys/change_on_install
system/manager.

if you have one only one database and you are working directly in server (client and server in same machine)
a connecString is not required.
you can connect with username/password
else
you need to edit tnsnames.ora file to create a connect string.

-- this is a sample tnsnames.ora file entry

C:>tail c:oracleora81networkadmintnsnames.ora
STAFFA_PMWR =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = staffa)(PORT = 1521))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = pmwr)
    )
  )
-- first make sure the the listener in server is running

C:>tnsping staffa_pmwr

Attempting to contact (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=staffa)(PORT=1521))
OK (50 msec)

-- for the above entries i would connect as

C:>sqlplus dbadmin@staffa_pmwr
