The thing is that you are unable to access to your Database. You have to reach your standalone Servor.  PM also instal a servor during the PM software installing.

That's not the end because depending on which version you have installed, P6V7 or P6.2.1 or previous version, PM instal different Servor. Indeed whith the P6V7 package Oracle provide by default the Oracle XE servor (which is a big shit impossible to manage), at the opposite with P6.2.1 and previous MSSQL Express 2005 is provided, and this one is manageable.

1- Connect to your Servor;

2- Reach you DB;

3- Check the users avaibles into this DB (Security/Users by memory) you should have Privuser & Pubuser;

4- Launch the following script (it works into MSSQl):

              exec sp_change_users_login 'update_one', 'pubuser', 'pubuser'
              exec sp_change_users_login 'update_one', 'privuser', 'privuser'

5- Launch PM and create a new connection alias;

6- Into the DB Config: Specify the password to reach the Servor, Enter the login & Password pubuser/pubuser or privuser/privuser.

 

It should work,

Good Luck ;)
