[gslusw]:Error reading 'ods' passwd from wallet [gsdsiConnect]:Error reading 'ods' passwd from wallet

[gslusw]:Error reading 'ods' passwd from wallet  [gsdsiConnect]:Error reading 'ods' passwd from wallet

If you are getting this error than the wallet password cant be read and not able to make the Connection to the database from the mid tier box
While you are trying to create a wallet the error appears


[oracle@fah oracle]$ /u03/app/oracle/product/fmw/idm/ldap/bin/oidpasswd connect=oiddb change_oiddb_pwd=true
current password:
    new password:
confirm password:
Replication password file exists
[gslusw]:Error reading 'ods' passwd from wallet
[gsdsiConnect]:Error reading 'ods' passwd from wallet
password set

Step1
Check the env variables


[oracle@fah ~]$ export ORACLE_INSTANCE=/u03/app/oracle/admin/oid_inst1
[oracle@fah ~]$ export ORACLE_HOME=/u03/app/oracle/product/fmw/idm
[oracle@fah ~]$ export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
[oracle@fah ~]$ export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/ldap/bin:$PATH
[oracle@fah ~]$ export PATH=/u03/app/oracle/product/fmw/idm/opmn/bin:$PATH

Set the ENV variables According to your environment

Step 2 
Check the Wallet files permission and check whether it is in the expected location
 when you are creating the wallet it will create the two new files in the  $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/admin
cd /u03/app/oracle/product/fmw/idm/ldap/admin

 oidpwdlldap1
 oidpwdroidm   oidpwdro<databaseSID>

[oracle@fahtestapp admin]$ ll oidpwd*
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 207 Sep  9 23:42 oidpwdlldap1
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 215 Sep  9 23:42 oidpwdroidm
backup these files and rename  the file

Step3
Check the database connection and the tnsnames.ora file location


If the tnsnames.ora file or the database connection has some issue you can cet an another error message also while creating the wallet

[oracle@fahtestapp oracle]$ /u03/app/oracle/product/fmw/idm/ldap/bin/oidpasswd connect=oiddb change_oiddb_pwd=true

current password:

    new password:

confirm password:

Unable to Connect to Database: Incorrect location for tnsnames.ora (derived from ORACLE_INSTANCE) or Incorrect TNS Connect string or Invalid Password

Check the tnsnames.ora file in the location of the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin

/u03/app/oracle/products/fmw/idm/network/admin

check Whether the tnsnames.ora file is present in the specified directory $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin if it is not in the directory create a tnsnames.ora file with the necessary values..

Setp4

Check the tnsping from the Mid-tier to the database 

check the tnsping it shoud use the TNSNAMES ADAPTER TO RESOLVE IF it is using the host names ADAPTER then you need to check the string in the tnsnames.. 

[oracle@fahtestapp config]$ tnsping OIDDB

OK (0 msec)

 tnsping is working fine and set the proper env variables and proceed to create the wallet
