SAP Netweaver 2004s Application Java

Hi All,

Since a couple of days, I have a problem concerning authentication to the java apllication on a SAP Netweaver 2004s.

Using the user ‘Administrator’, I CAN logon the Visual Administrator tool, with the same user I tried to logon via http://host:port/nwa without success.

At the beginning, I was thinking about a problem of password then I enabled the emergency user SAP*, the problem was the same. Ok with Visual Administrator but not via http.

Here is two logs found in folder : D:\usr\sap\SID\JC02\j2ee\cluster\server0\log\system\

security.3.log

&#61664; I tried to connect http://host:port/sld same problem User Authentication Failed

<b>Do you have an idea for me? Why a user can connect via Visual Administrator and not via the http interface?</b>

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I found the solution this last week-end.

This behavior let's thinking to a problem of authentication.

But the problem was in SQL, an index was missing in table J2EE_CONFIG, called J2EE_CONFIG_I3

Hello Yves,

Seems like authorization issue. Assign the user sld roles and then try once more.
