Correcting EPMAT-9: Invalid Credentials and EPMAT-7: Invalid Parameter Errors
EPMAT-7: Invalid Parameter Error
This error is displayed on Linux platforms when you execute the login EPM Automate command with a password that contains a special character such as the $ (dollar sign). Sometimes, EPM Automate displays EPMAT-7: Invalid Parameter
error in this situation.
To resolve this error, on Linux platforms, escape the special characters using a backslash (\). For example, to use the password Example$19
with the login command, specify it as Example\$19
. For detailed information, see Handling Special Characters in Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud Working with EPM Automate for Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud.
EPMAT-9: Invalid Credentials Error
EPM Automate displays this error if the identity domain password of the user executing a command or script is invalid (has expired or is locked).
You will receive periodic password expiry warnings from oraclecloudadmin_ww@oracle.com to change your identity domain password. If you ignore this warning, your password will expire. After you update the password, EPM Automate commands and scripts that require the use of Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud credentials will fail to run if you do not use the updated password.
To resolve this error, if you use an encrypted password file, update your password encryption file to reflect the new password. See the encrypt EPM Automate command for usage and examples. If you use plain text passwords in scripts, be sure to update the scripts with the new password.
