SAP* - 000 reset pwd

[Former Member]

Hi again,

I have problems with:

SAP* - nout used for a long period and therefore deactivated

I just made a system copy and I cannot login to other clients due to license issues.

So i have to do it from SAP* - 000.

If this was deactivated, how can I set it back ?

login/no_automatic_user_sapstar = 0

SQL> DELETE from SAPSR3.USR02 where bname='SAP*' and mandt='000';

1 row deleted.

SQL> commit

2 ;

Commit complete.

But still this expiration message.

Thanks to advice,

Hi Jordy,

Have you restarted SAP after deleting SAP* user at database level...?

Just restart SAP instance and then check...

Hi Jordy,

Just to confirm, have you set "login/no_automatic_user_sapstar = 0" this parameter in INSTANCE profile at OS level ?

By deleting the SAP* user at database level and enable the profile parameter mentioned in your first post will enable the emergency SAP* user.

As per my understanding, this user automatically get enabled by setting the profile parameter as it is hard coded in SAP Kernel.

Just try rebooting whole server (including OS).

Sometime it solves the problem...

Anyway, What exact error message do you get while logging using SAP* ?

Regards.

Hello,

It seems that the issue is not related to kernel (hard booted) SAP* password.

I think in your system client 000, the user SAP* has been created using SU01. Along with this, it seems that some security related parameters are active for your sap system due to which the password for the user sap* is disabled now.

Please check the following note for the parameter login/password_max_idle_productive

Please check the SAP Note 862989 - New password rules as of SAP NetWeaver 2004s (NW ABAP 7.0)

Thanks
