Hi Scott,
Yes, I am talking about the database password file. I believe you should
recreate it without the "format" option. As for the question why, I can
only guess, just like you. New feature perhaps?

I’m assuming you are talking about the database password file. If so, then it was created using format=12, because it was 12c at the time. Should I recreate it with a different format? Why would it have worked yesterday before I patched and not now?

I have had a similar problem with a client. I was able to log in using sqlplus but unable to log in using dgmgrl. The problem was the password file format. Client has specified 12c format, which doesn't enforce the security rules and that was fine for SQL*Plus but not fine for dgmgrl. Your description leads me to the conclusion that this is the same problem. However, the database that I was working with was 19.7, not 19.8. I am unable to reproduce this with 19.8.

Yesterday, I applied the July PSU to the database behind Cloud
Control. Now, I can’t log in via Cloud Control. I try to log in
and I get the message saying that the user or password is
invalid. But I can log into the database via SQL*Plus with the
user / password. How do I fix this?
DB version = 19.8
CC version = 13.3
