I am facing this issue in oracle19c. I have added the following to sqlnet.ora
SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION_CLIENT = 8
SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION_SERVER = 8
as well as
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE)
But I am getting:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password: logon denied
I read all over stackoverflow to re-create the password. I have even tried creating password file as well as changing the password of the user by alter command.
Can any one help me out with the exact steps to re-create password.

You can create a password file using orapwd
utility.
Users are added to the password file when they are granted the SYSDBA, SYSOPER, SYSASM, SYSKM, SYSDG or SYSBACKUP privilege.
By default, SYS is the only user that has SYSDBA and SYSOPER privileges. Creating a password file via orapwd
enables the remote users to connect with admin privileges.
The basic command to create the password file is
orapwd file=<Password file name> entries=<nnumber of entries allowed> force=<y/n>
There should be no space around =
.
Here, You should use force=y
to permits overwriting an existing password file.
Cheers!!
