ORA-28000: the account is locked error getting frequently

问题

I am getting the error :

 ORA-28000: the account is locked

Is this a DB Issue? When I unlock user account using the command ALTER USER username ACCOUNT UNLOCK temporarily it will be OK. Then after some time the same account lock happens again.

The database using is oracle XE

Does anybody else have the same issue?

回答1:

One of the reasons of your problem could be the password policy you are using.

And if there is no such policy of yours then check your settings for the password properties in the DEFAULT profile with the following query:

SELECT resource_name, limit
FROM dba_profiles 
WHERE profile = 'DEFAULT'
AND resource_type = 'PASSWORD';

And If required, you just need to change the PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME to unlimited with the following query:

ALTER PROFILE DEFAULT LIMIT PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME UNLIMITED;

Way to unlock the user :

$ sqlplus  /nolog
SQL > conn sys as sysdba
SQL > ALTER USER USER_NAME ACCOUNT UNLOCK;

and open new terminal

SQL > sqlplus / as sysdba
connected
SQL > conn username/password  //which username u gave before unlock

it will ask new password:password
it will ask re-type password:password
press enter u will get loggedin

Here other solution to only unlock the blocked user. From your command prompt log as SYSDBA:

sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

Then type the following command:

alter user <your_username> account unlock;

I have faced this similar issue and resolved it by using following steps :

Open windows command prompt.
Login using the command sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
Then executed the command alter user HR identified by password account unlock

Please note, the password is the password that I have used.

By using above steps you can connect to Oracle Database as user HR with the password password.

回答5:

Check the PASSWORD_LOCK_TIME parameter. If it is set to 1 then you won't be able to unlock the password for 1 day even after you issue the alter user unlock command.

回答6:

enter user-name: system

enter password: password [Only if, if you have not changed your default password while DB installation]

press enter. after which, you will be seeing the connection status.

Now,

SQL> ALTER USER [USER_NAME] ACCOUNT UNLOCK;

press enter.

you will be seeing message: user altered.

Now try login with the user name on db client[sqldeveloper].

Solution 01

Account Unlock by using below query :

SQL> select USERNAME,ACCOUNT_STATUS from dba_users where username='ABCD_DEV';    
USERNAME             ACCOUNT_STATUS
-------------------- --------------------------------
ABCD_DEV       LOCKED

SQL> alter user ABCD_DEV account unlock;    
User altered.

SQL> select USERNAME,ACCOUNT_STATUS from dba_users where username='ABCD_DEV';    
USERNAME             ACCOUNT_STATUS
-------------------- --------------------------------
ABCD_DEV       OPEN

Solution 02

Check PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME parameter by using below query :

SELECT resource_name, limit FROM dba_profiles WHERE profile = 'DEFAULT' AND resource_type = 'PASSWORD';

RESOURCE_NAME                    LIMIT
-------------------------------- ------------------------------
FAILED_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS            10
PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME               10
PASSWORD_REUSE_TIME              10
PASSWORD_REUSE_MAX               UNLIMITED
PASSWORD_VERIFY_FUNCTION         NULL
PASSWORD_LOCK_TIME               1
PASSWORD_GRACE_TIME              7
INACTIVE_ACCOUNT_TIME            UNLIMITED

Change the parameter using below query

ALTER PROFILE DEFAULT LIMIT PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME UNLIMITED;
