Answer 1

The apxchpwd.sql script is used to change the password, but it also unlocks the ADMIN account (, so - you shouldn't even need any additional code. Just make sure to run the one that belongs to Apex version you use.

SQLPLUS /NOLOG
SQL> CONNECT SYS AS SYSDBA
SQL> @APXCHPWD

Alternatively, also connected as SYS, use the following code:

BEGIN
   apex_util.set_security_group_id(p_security_group_id => 10);
   apex_util.unlock_account(p_user_name => 'ADMIN');
END;
