Post database connection failing from linux

Hi,

I am trying to connect to an Oracle database using the following code :
sqlplus username/password@database_name

It was showing an error 'username/password invalid'

But i tried: sqlplus username/password ,it was connecting now.

Can anyone suggest what may be the issue and why?Can i track from where did it fetch the database information?

Your help is appreciated

With Regards
Dileep Pattayath

Oracle_sid

Hi Dileep

If you get connected without providing the Oracle SID, it's been gotten from the environment, try this:

$ echo $ORACLE_SID

It should show what SID you're connecting to.

Regards,

Erwin
