Bala,

that is a batchfile. so, go to command prompt and call the batch file saying <b>SDM CHANGEPASSWORD SDMHOME=<home folder pointing to sdm/program> NEWPASSWORD=<your new password></b>.

Hi

I am also having same issue with JSPM and also j2EE_admin password.I can`t connect config tool and also visual administrator as well as SDM. In my MMC disp+work is yellow and it says "J2EE status info unavailable"

I tried to reset the password in configtool secure store but ot didn`t work.

This is my solman 7.0 with EHP1.How can i change J2EE_ADMIN and other java related passwords.

In my MMC j2ee processors are not available.

Thanks

Hi Roshantha,

if you are getting "MMC disp+work is yellow" with status "J2EE status info unavailable" in MMC then please check the Java version applicable for your server version, database started status.

If Java version is correct, then you need to add system variable (JAVA_HOME) variable in enviroment variable (Right Click on My Computer>Properties>Advance tab > here in below you can find enviroment variable button) and also add your database path in the enviroment variable as 'user variable'

Check your database services file (Control pannel > Adminstrative tool> service), set your database status is 'Automatic'

After doing all the above step, try to start your server.

For changing J2EE_ADMIN, you can use sap system - tcode-SU01

Also, Please raise new thread if your problem not resoved. I think creater of this thread issue has already completed.

Hope this will helps you.

Thanks

Arun

Hi Balasubrahmanyam,

SDM Password Reset

==================

Just enter following lines in your COMMAND LINE:

1. enter SDM directory as: cd C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\program

2. Execute the following (just copy-paste)

sdm jstartup "sdmhome=C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\program" "mode=standalone"

3. Execute following line (replacing Password1 with your new password for SDM)

sdm changepassword "sdmhome=C:\usr\sap/J2E/JC00/SDM/program" "newpassword=Password1"

4. I suggest also revert SDM back to integrated mode

sdm jstartup "sdmhome=C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\program" "mode=integrated"

5. Start SDM using commnad as StartServer.bat

Following commands worked for me.

1> Stop SDM process .

2> change to SDM\program dir

3>execute:

sdm jstartup "mode=standalone" "sdmhome=Drive:/usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/SDM/program"

4>execute:

sdm changepassword "sdmhome=Drive:/usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/SDM/program" "newpassword=give_new-password"

5>execute:

sdm jstartup "mode=integrated" "sdmhome=Drive:/usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/SDM/program"

.

Try to login with new password now. I hope it will work for you.

Hello Balu,

Hi Balu

It will be easy to change the password using the sdm command line option .I always change it using the follwoing command option's :

Stop the SDM Server first using the SAP MMC

Open the command line.

Go to the SDM\program directory.

sdm jstartup "mode=standalone" "sdmhome=C:/usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/SDM/program"

sdm changepassword "sdmhome=C:/usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/SDM/program" "newpassword=test123"

sdm jstartup "mode=integrated" "sdmhome=C:/usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/SDM/program"

<u><b>NOTICE the "/" instead of the "\" in the sdmhome path !</b></u>

hope this solves your problem .

Hai Rajesh,

Thanks for your reply. But I am unable to find SDM\program. Please tell me exact location of SDM folder. I installed WAS in C:\ and I searched in C drive. BUt I am unable to identify.

Please help me.

[Former Member]

Hi

You can find it under c:\usr\sap\J2E\JC01\SDM\program

(J2E folder is the server instance name).

If you can still find it do a windows search for sdm.bat wherever your server has been installed .Its in the same folder from where you start your sdm using RemoteGui.bat

Hai Rajesh,

I am very very thankful to you. your suggestion worked for me. One more help I want. Using http://servername:portnumber/index.hmtl I am able to get index page. In that page how can I access System Information, User Management and all other options. Please give me guidence and please send me the default user ids and passwords to access those.

[Former Member]

Hi Balu,

The login user id for the User Management, System

Information etc on the Index page is the Administrator

The passwords for the administrative users would have been asked for during the installation. If its not

working, then you will have to reset the password. I am

not sure if any default passwords exist for these.

You can reset the password for the administrator by

activating the SAP* user and resetting the Administrator

password.

Activating SAP*:

After that change the password in Secure store also as

Hai Rajesh,

You gave me good suggestions in getting SDM Password. Thanks for your help.

Regds,

Balu.

[Former Member]

hi Balu,

if you had done a default installation, your sdm password is "admin". otherwise, you may reset the SDM password.

Hai Ravi,

Actually I installed 90 days evolution (slim) version in my system. While installing it asked for Java system master password for all users like SDM, Administrator for J2EE Engine, J2EE Engine owner on Operating System Level and for remaining all. I gave it as netweavers. Now it is not accepting that password.

Please tell me what I have to do now.
