I installed 8.1.6 today and migrated an 8.1.5 database to
the new release. I wanted to try using Oracle's Database
Migration Assistant, but when I ran it, it failed because of
an invalid username/password error. I got as far as the
screen where I had to type in the old and new Oracle home
directories, and the location of the initialization
parameter file. There was no place to type in a username &
password. In fact, I don't even know what username and
password the utility was trying to use. Has anyone
encountered this problem before? I checked the Oracle
Migration manual, and have found nothing about specifying a
username/password. I ended up doing the migration manually,
but I'm curious as to what went wrong with the migration
assistant. Anyone know?
