ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed

Posted on April 28th, 2010 in Ora Error

Today while I am going to startup my database , I found the following error

SQL> startup
ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed

I have edited the sqlnet.ora file and modified the same as follows

Before – SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)

After – SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NONE)

After modification , I perform the following operation to bring the database open

SQL> shutdown immediate;
ORA-01507: database not mounted
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.
