REP-0501 ORA-01017 unable to connect to the specified database

REP-0501 ORA-01017 unable to connect to the specified database

Applies to:
            Enterprise Linux Version 5.7
            Database 11gR2
            Oracle Forms/Reports 6i

Description:
            We have an in-house developed application on Oracle Form/Reports 6i with Oracle Database 9.2 32bit on Windows Server 2008 32bit. Application is working fine. I have assigned a task from my manager to upgrade the database and also migrate the database server on Linux. I have done all the activities successfully. After that, Application is working fine except reports. When I run any report from application the report engine log give me the following error:

REP-0501: Unable to connect to the specified database.
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

Solution:
After some research work I have found the following solution:

If you have recently created an 11g database, one behavior change that you may find confusing is that passwords are now case-sensitive by default. This behavior is controlled by the SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON parameter.
Check the current value of above parameter:
SQL> connect system/oracle
Connected.
SQL> show parameter sec_case_sensitive_logon
NAME                     TYPE    VALUE
------------------------ ------- -----
sec_case_sensitive_logon boolean TRUE

Default value of this parameter is TRUE, change it to FALSE. After restart the database reports are working fine without any error.



Your comments, especially which will help us improve the functionality, will be greatly appreciated. :)
