Is it a chmod 775 that is needed on the orapwfile? . I've had this
recently.

If you perform ls -l orapwMT_DB what are the file ownership and

Hi all,
Help! This is driving me nuts! I'm reasonably sure I'm overlooking
something simple....
Oracle 12.1.0.2 SE2 on Oracle Linux 7.2 x86-64
I can't login as 'sys@my_db as sysdba' remotely.
Here's what I see:
[oracle@mappr2 ~]$ . oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [MY_DB] ?
The Oracle base remains unchanged with value /u01/app/oracle
[oracle@mappr2 ~]$ orapwd file=?/dbs/orapw@ force=y
password=MyPassword123 ignorecase=no
[oracle@mappr2 ~]$ ls -l $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwMY_DB
-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 7680 Jul 3 19:24
/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1/dbs/orapwMY_DB
[oracle@mappr2 ~]$ . oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [MY_DB] ?
The Oracle base remains unchanged with value /u01/app/oracle
[oracle@mappr2 ~]$ sqlplus sys/MyPassword123@MY_DB as sysdba

Also, since I'm seeing the unable to obtain file status' error, I tried
tracing sqlplus with 'strace -ftt', but when I grepped the output for
'open' call and then for 'orapw' I don't even see any attempt to open the
password file?
Anyhow, I've got an SR open w/ Oracle, but if anyone has any suggestions,
I'm all ears.
Thanks,
-Mark
