Oracle 10g on windows server

There's no user ora<sid> in this case.

You might want to try <sid>adm instead.

Hi Mohan

As Joe suggested. If you are using oracle on Windows server.. there is no ora<sid> instead u can log into OS level using <sid>adm and login to Oracle from command prompt .

Try to login with SAPServiceSID if you know the password or any other admin access in that server.

Then go to My Computer>> Manage>>Computer Management> Local User and Groups>User>Right CLick on SIDADM user>Click on " Set Password"
