How do I turn off Oracle password expiration?

Question

I\'m using Oracle for development. The password for a bootstrap account that I always use to rebuild my database has expired.

How do I turn off password expiration

Answer 1

For those who are using Oracle 12.1.0 for development purposes:
I found that the above methods would have no effect on the db user: "system", because the account_status would remain in the expired-grace period.

The easiest solution was for me to use SQL Developer:
within SQL Developer, I had to go to: View / DBA / Security and then Users / System and then on the right side: Actions / Expire pw and then: Actions / Edit and I could untick the option for expired.

This cleared the account_status, it shows OPEN again, and the SQL Developer is no longer showing the ORA-28002 message.
