Are there any special characters in the incorrect password? If so, maybe
you need to quote the value to prevent the shell from interpreting the
value. Something like:
sql charlotte/"wrongpassword"@myhost/MYSID

Hello,
I have only just started playing with SQLcl (version 19.1 on Linux) and
have hit an oddity - just want to check if this is expected?
sql charlotte/mypassword@myhost/MYSID <-- connects fine
sql charlotte/wrongpassword@myhost/MYSID <-- hangs
Is it meant to hang if I get my password wrong? It looks like a bug (or
at least a misconfiguration) but since I'm new I want to make sure I'm not
overlooking something obvious.
Verbose mode shows nothing after:
INFO: Attempting to connect using URL= "jdbc:oracle:oci8:@myhost:MYSID"
The hang also happens if I get the username or service wrong (it errors if
the host is wrong). And it's the same if I use nolog and then the connect
command.
Thank you!
Charlotte
