anonymous principal

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am getting the following exception when my J2EE is starting up. Can anyone give me a hint as to what may have gone wrong? This happened in the process of setting up SLD for XI.

com.sap.engine.services.security.BasesecurityException: Anonymous prinicipal not configured!!

Thanks in Advance/Farshad

I am getting the same error in my console log, right after a fresh install of J2EE Add-in to my central instance. It's a unicode installation in preparation for XI installation too, and the version of the J2EE Engine is 6.30. Please kindly help in deciphering this error:

In my case, the problem turned out to be with the userid SAPJSF.

Userid SAPJSF is used for UME as well as SLD. I changed the password of this user when setting up RFC destinations for SLD. As a result UME could not work anymore. The XI installation guide did not mention this dependency!

To get UME to work, I changed the password stored in propertysheet com.sap.security.core.ume.service using the offline configurator.

Hope this helps/Farshad

I went ahead and reinstalled the whole system, since this was a fresh installation anyway.. and the problem never occurred again... weird... thanks anyway!
