Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Problem with password file
Helmut,
Your problem is that remote_login_password_file is set 'exclusive'. You must shutdown your database before re-creating the password file.
If it's set 'shared' instead of 'exclusive', you can re-create the password file while the database open.
regards,
Rudy Wahab
