Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Sqlplus and connect internal
Well I have an NT 8.0.4 database with SQL*Plus 8.0.4.0.0. and
8.1.6.0.0.-(Along with OEM 2.1)
With the 8.0.4 version I get ORA-01031: insufficient privileges. But with the 8.1.6 version it connects fine, and I can startup and shutdown my instance. This leads me to believe it's not a platform problem, but a version problem, or maybe a mix of the two. (Which version of SQL*Plus were you using Stephen?)
SQL*Plus never used to support an internal connect pre 8.X anyway did it? So maybe it was added around 8.0.4.x.x? Anymore insights?
Cheers
Mark

It worked for me:
SQL> connect internal
Connected.

I'm on Digital Unix and I tried both Oracle 8.0.4.3.0 and Oracle 8.1.6.
I don't have an NT instance to try on, is that what you guys are using? Might be an OS difference.

I get the same behavior. For example:
SQL> connect internal
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
SQL> connect internal/oracle
Connected.
I have to believe that this is a bug. BTW, I have a password file, so even Server Manager requires a password.
Here's another oddity that I noticed while experimenting with this. I set remote_login_passwordfile=none, deleted my password file, and then I stopped and restarted my database service from the control panel. At that point I should have been able to connect internal without a password. Instead, both SQL*Plus and Server Manager prompted me for a password. Then they both rejected whatever password I typed in. The end result was that I was forced to reinstate my password file. That doesn't seem like proper behavior, and at the moment I'm at a loss to explain it.
