1. Change the password for J2EE_ADMIN in su01.

2. Now don't logon to your portal.

3. Open the sap logon gui.

4. Enter the username & password just you have changed.

5. Now it asks for a new password.

6. Give a new password.

7. Now logon to the portal.

You should have access without restarting your J2EE server.

Award points if this helps.

The Software Deployment Manager (SDM) is the standard tool that used to install J2EE components on the AS Java. SDM recognizes only one user (administrator). In case you lost the password then you can recreate it following below steps:

This was tried on UNIX platform. Procedure will remain same on all platforms with change in command syntax.

Step 1. Login at OS level as SIDadm & go to /usr/sap/<SID>/<JC00>/SDM/program & run this command:

./StopServer.sh "sdmhome=/usr/sap/<SID>/<JC00>/SDM/program"

This will stop your server.

Step 2. Now to make sure standalone SDM we need to run following command:

./sdm.sh jstartup "sdmhome=/usr/sap/<SID>/<JC00>/SDM/program" "mode=standalone"

This will ensure that only one SDM server is running for SDM_HOME directory.

Confirm this. You will get a message.

Step 3. To create new password, give the following command:

./sdm.sh changepassword "sdmhome=/usr/sap/<SID>/<JC00>/SDM/program" "newpassword=ABC1234"

Here you can give new password u201CABC1234u201D & this will reset your old password.

You will get the message that your password changed.

Step 4. Again change the integrated mode from standalone for SDM by giving the following command:

./sdm.sh jstartup "sdmhome=/usr/sap/<SID>/<JC00>/SDM/program" "mode=integrated"

It will give the message that mode changed.

Step 5. Start the server again :

./StartServer.sh "sdmhome=/usr/sap/<SID>/<JC00>/SDM/program"

Hi

I needed to reset the password for j2ee_admin too and I did thru SU01 and now I am able to login. I want to know why I need to change the entry it in Secure Store. When I check the configtool I can only see the entry for "jdbc/pool/PBI/Password" Is that where I suppose to change the password?

I also have "admin/password/PBI" entry.

I dont see any password entry for j2ee_admin password. except "admin/user/PBI' but there is no place to input the password.

Please explain?

Hi Bill,

jdbc/pool/PBI/User - SAP<SID>DB

jdbc/pool/PBI/Password - To change SAP<SID>DB password only which Database login password..

Now in order to change Engine User password :

You should find something like (i dont remember exact text worked long back)

admin/user/<SID> ->>> USER

admin/password/<SID> >>>> This should be where you should change ENgine password for admin user.

Thanks and Rgds,

Kino

Hi Mohan,

Do not forget to maintain new J2EE_ADMIN password in the Secure Store with the help of Configtool.

Hello,

If you are using a portal (EP) , you will not have the user "j2ee_admin" by default. The administrator user will be "administrator" itself.

However, if the UME is connected to an abap stack and if you have already created a user "j2ee_admin" on the system, you can use the steps mentioned in the above reply.

hope this helps.
