Dialog Instance Install

[Former Member]

Hey guys, I have installed a new dialog instance on my development system. It was easy and went smoothly, but I am not able to sign onto the 000 or 001 clients with SAP* or DDIC users. I tried PASS, Pass, pass, 07061992, 19920706 for the passwords and none of them worked. I was able to lock the SAP* user in client 001 because of too many failed attempts so I at least know that it is there, but could not do that on the 000 client. I ran the sql command to delete the SAP* user from client 000, restarted the new dialog instance, but still no luck.

So my question is, there is nothing in the sql command that specifies the instance, so how does it know which 000 client to delete the sap* user from since both dialog and central instances use the same R3SIDDATA and kernel? Also, what passwords should I have used to logon with SAP* and DDIC on this new instance?

We have nixed the instance install, now we are installing a new system landscape. Which of course I also have problems with.

Victor is correct - you need to add this parameter to the instance profile

(edit it in /sapmnt/<SID>/profile if you cant login to the sapgui, stop and start the instance)

login/no_automatic_user_sapstar = 0

Password for SAP* & DDIC will be the master password entered in the sapinst script.

Hello,

the same passwords that you used for the cental instance will work for the dialogue instance as well.

No difference whatever.

That is what I thought too. Any suggestions on the next step if none of the passwords are working?

Okay, another idea:

What error message do you get? I still doubt that it is about 'wrong password'...

Maybe it is about 'missing license' ??

Note: If you install an application server on a different host, you will need another license from SAP.

Hello Chris,

Please check profile parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar.

If it is the default value '1', SAP* would not be created after you deleted it from database level. Please change it to '0', restart SAP, and try again with default password of SAP*.

Best regards,

Victor
