Wow I did not think anyone was still running WebFOCUS 5.3.5. I found this on techsupport from an old case and it may help you.

adding this line in the SQLNET.ORA on the database side solved the ORA-28040

SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION_SERVER=8

This link may help you as well. https://docs.oracle.com/databa...sqlnet.htm#NETRF2016

PS. You really need to upgrade!
