Hi List,

may I ask again for your support.

I try to run automatic installer but fail with the message but can't drop the user:

drop user OPENCMS cascade;

-->"cannot drop a user that is currently connected"

Now I googled and found:

select username, sid, serial# from v$session where lower(username)='OPENCMS';

What brought:

USERNAME                              SID    SERIAL#

------------------------------ ---------- ----------
OPENCMS 143 148 OPENCMS 144 623 OPENCMS 145 19 OPENCMS 147 378 OPENCMS 148 609 OPENCMS 158 764

alter system kill session '143, 148';

seem's to have no effect as the error persists.... any idea how to solve that issue?

Thanx in advance

Mat
