Reset OC4J Admin Password

Reset the oc4jadmin password using the following procedure while you are logged in as the user who installed the Oracle Application Server instance:

1. Stop OC4J and the Application Server Control.

   Enter the following command in the Oracle home of the application server instance:

   (UNIX) ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl stopproc ias-component=OC4J
   (Windows) ORACLE_HOME\opmn\bin\opmnctl stopproc ias-component=OC4J
   
   

2. Locate and open the following file in a text editor:

   (UNIX)ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/home/config/system-jazn-data.xml
   (Windows)ORACLE_HOME\j2ee\home\config\system-jazn-data.xml
   
   

3. Locate the line that defines the credentials property for the oc4jadmin user.

   The following example shows the section of system-jazn-data.xml with the encrypted credentials entry in boldface type:

   
   
      jazn.com
      
       .
       .
             oc4jadmin
            OC4J Administrator
            OC4J Administrator
               {903}4L50lHJWIFGwLgHXTub7eYK9e0AnWLUH
         
   

4. Replace the existing encrypted password with the new password.

   Be sure to prefix the password with an exclamation point (!). For example:

   !mynewpassword123
