PlsqlDatabasePassword
Specifies the password to use to log in to the database.
After making manual configuration changes to DAD passwords, it is recommended
that the DAD passwords are obfuscated by running the “
dadTool.pl
” script
located in
ORACLE_HOME /Apache/modplsql/con
f.
Following are the steps to obfuscate DAD passwords:
1.
If necessary, switch user to the Oracle software owner user, typically
oracle
using the following command:
$su - oracle
2.
Set the
ORACLE_HOME
environment variable to specify the path to the Oracle
home directory for the current release and set the
PATH
environment variable to
include the directory containing the Perl executable and the location of the
dadTool.pl
script.
On Bourne, Bash, or Korn Shell:
ORACLE_HOME= new_ORACLE_HOME_path ;export ORACLE_HOME
PATH= ORACLE_HOME /Apache/modplsql/conf: ORACLE_HOME /perl/bin:PATH;export PATH
On C or tcsh Shell:
setenv ORACLE_HOME new_ORACLE_HOME_PATH
setenv PATH ORACLE_HOME /Apache/modplsql/conf: ORACLE_HOME /perl/bin:PATH
On Windows:
set PATH= ORACLE_HOME \Apache\modplsql\conf; ORACLE_
HOME \perl\5.6.1\bin\MSWin32-x86;% PATH %
