Created a report and got this error :

(FOC1400) SQLCODE IS -1 (HEX: FFFFFFFF) : Name or password is incorrect. Please re-enter
(FOC1406) SQL OPEN CURSOR ERROR.

does that mean that the database I'm trying to access is password protected? Haven't checked with the dbase admin.

If so, how do I connect to this dbase? dbase is in Oracle, thanks.

Yuuta,
Check your connect string in edasprof. You should have something like:
  
ENGINE SQLORA SET CONNECTION_ATTRIBUTES ...

In place of ... you should have username and pwd

Yuuta,
Unless special values were given at installation tim, EDASPROF.prf is in X:\ibi\srvnn\wfs\etc, where:

X is the disk wher WF is installed

nn is the version of WF

IF you're getting the error described, there isn't anything you can change in EDASPROF that can fix it. The error is being return from the DBMS, so it's going to need to be fixed there by your DBA.

There were two issues. The first one being how you were authenticating to the database. The second being that you were locked out of the database.

If the Oracle connection being used employed an EXPLICIT id/password (sometimes called a generic ID), that ID/password wasn't being recognized by the database server.

Once you changed the ID, the password might not have been correct. In that case, after 3 tries (or however many Oracle used), your ID got locked out.

As Darin said, your Oracle DBA should be able to help you unlock the access to your Oracle account.

Good luck.
