J2EE_ADMIN user getting locked frequently

Former Member

Hi SAP Guru's,

The user J2EE_ADMIN in our nw2004s system is getting locked frequently. We have changed the password of this user in ABAP via SU01 & in JAVA in the secure store via configtool. The server was re-booted after doing these changes. Still the user J2EE_ADMIN is getting locked frequently. Also in SM21, we have a log <b>"J2EE_ADMIN locked due to incorrect logon"</b> for this locking which mentions the user as SAPJSF (Communication user between ABAP & JAVA).

Is there a possibility that SAPJSF is locking the user J2EE_ADMIN ?? how & why ??

Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Sanjeev.

Hi Sanjeev,

This is a pretty ellusive bug but we were able duplicate this issue in our lab . It appears that whenver you use password that have an "" at the end for the "j2ee_admin" or "sapjsf" users within certain Sp levels of the java stack. J2ee_admin gets locked frequestily during startup. We fixed this problem by removing the "" from our passwords within the J2ee stack .

have you solve this issue? we have the same!

every half hour (xx:51:00 and xx:29:00), the J2EE_ADMIN user is locked by user SAPJSF transaction KRNL from the local host (terminal).

We have changed the pass in secure store in configtool to the pass we used in abap.

In "Visual Administrator" "Cluster>Server>Services-->Security Provider" the user have a checked box at "No password change required"

We searched for other places with a wrong pass (Jco Connections = no J2EE_ADMIN used, SLD = no J2EE_ADMIN used), but found nothing.

need help pls.

Hi,

Open "Visual Administrator" and go to "Cluster>Server>Services-->Security Provider"

Choose "Runtime" tab and then "User Management". Search for the user "J2EE_Admin" and double click on the user name to get the user management property sheet. Check if the "No password change required" check box is checked or not.

<b>If this checkbox is not checked then the password will expire repeatedly.</b>

In addition to Vijay Kothapalli-s comment, If you are using some monitor tool like Big Brother, it could be locking the J2ee user. If this is the case I suggest you create a user for monitor tool.

Hi,

One solution you can have is using j2ee_admin user create another user say

j2ee_admin1 and give the required password to it. This should be done by copying the user j2ee_admin to j2ee_admin1 user. Further from now onn use only j2ee_admin1 whereever the admin user is required.

This should solve your problem temporarily.

Next ensure from the visual admin that the user j2ee_admin is unlocked. Once done provide it the same password as done from ABAP side.

Regards and do reward with good points.

Sanjeev,

Did you configure or change anything recently in SAP system ? Where you might have given wrong password for Java user ie.J2EE_admin.Check the recent configurations.

SAPJSF will not lock J2EE_admin user.

Hi,

Look for the User trace in the Security folder of the Server node.Probabaly it will help in Knowing the reason.

it could be due to the password expiry setting. Perhap u can change it to Service type user
