When i start SQL Plus, and i key in "scott" and "tiger", I am prompted to key in the oracle 8i startup password. Pls help to advice on this issue. Million thanks.
 
If you are working with Oracle8 Personal Edition, the default password for INTERNAL is ORACLE.
 
hi, i have tried the mentioned combination but to no avail.. it still asks for the oracle 8i password..
 
After starting SQL/PLUS a pop-up window will appear.

The user name is : scott
The password is : tiger
The host string is :

Then you should get the SQL> prompt.

If this doesn't work then your database is probably corrupted and I would highly recommend to reinstall it.

Regards.
