ICM Default Username & Password - Can't login :(

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I'm currently running the Netweaver ABAP trial (701/v3) and I'm trying to setup ICM access when i try to preview a Webdynpro application I am getting a 403. I found [this page|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/82/9e98d786f040209e6a9e8145153939/frameset.htm] which guides me through the default setup. However, when entering the instance profile name, it is not recognized:

Microsoft Windows [Version 5.2.3790]
(C) Copyright 1985-2003 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>cd C:\usr\sap\NSP\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386

C:\usr\sap\NSP\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386>icmon -a pf=NSP_DVEBMGS00_SAPDEMO
icmon=>sapparam(2): fopenU("NSP_DVEBMGS00_SAPDEMO","r"): No such file or directo
ry
icmon=>No Profile used.
icmon=>sapparam: SAPSYSTEMNAME neither in Profile nor in Commandline
Maintain authentication file
============================

Warning:
The default location of "icmauth.txt" is "$(DIR_GLOBAL)/security/data"
To resolve $(DIR_GLOBAL) an instance profile is required.
You can specify it with "icmon -a pf=<instance profile>"
Continuing with "icmauth.txt" as default filename for authentication file.

Filename (icmauth.txt):

I have set up a user anyway by pressing enter and then selecting option a, however upon trying to login I can not authenticate.

I copied the instance profile from RZ10 so assume it is right. Can anyone advise?

Execute following steps in sequence to get Access here

1. Goto OS command prompt

2. execute icmon -a pf=path to instance profile\instance profile name

3.press a and enter all the details like user name, password etc.

3. Press s to save changes to icmauth.txt. This file will be created in
sapmnt\<SID>\sys\global\security\data

directory

4. Enable icm services via SICF

5. Now you can access ICM via SAPMMC

Hi Guys,

Still no luck. I wrote down my master password upon installation but don't have a password for ICM. I still can't get access to the ICM even when i try the above user and the typical passwords I use. NB: SICF confirms that the ICM service is running.

From what I can tell, the icmon.exe does not know about my instance profile. I can basically stick anything in "pf=" and it will let me create a user. To complicate things further I have noticed that there are 2 locations for ICMON.EXE. These are: C:\usr\sap\NSP\DVEBMGS00\exe and C:\usr\sap\NSP\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386.

Also, upon checking there is no file created in:C:\usr\sap\NSP\SYS\global\security\data

Can anyone advise?

Hi Guys, happy to say that I managed to solve my problem by activating the services described [here|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/46/d28dfa34bb12bee10000000a1553f7/content.htm] and following the guide [here|http://www.basisconsultant.com/netweaver/bi/211-bsp-call--type-of-termination-rabaxstate.html].

I still can't get icmon.exe to work which I believe is a disconnect between the executable recognising my instance profile and perhaps which icmon.exe to execute!

Hi my friend

To access ICM: username webadm, default password is the master password you set during the installation.
