Hi Semit,

During installation were you prompted to enter any password? If yes, try to login with the same password. Also, in which client were the default users (SAP* or DDIC) got locked?

Atleast, try to login to other clients .. and check if the passwords work.

Try if any other logins like IDADMIN with password : ides may work.

Plz,let me know if this worked.

Did you download it from SAP or did you buy it as an image on a CD?

The passwords are now set during the installation. You will have set it yourself (o who ever did ran the install).

Cheers,

Hi Gorkan,

To reset password of user SAP* in ABAP stack on client 000, use this strategy:

We need to delete user ID SAP* in Client '000' at SQL level

For MS-SQL, you will use the SQL Management Studio and run a Query.

Use the following SQL:

Delete from <Schema>.USR02 where MANDT='000' and BNAME='SAP*'

commit;

For DB2:

logon as db2<adm>

db2 "select bname ,mandt from <schema>.usr02 where bname='SAP*'";

db2 "update <schema>.usr02 set bname="SAPSTAR" where bname='SAP*' and mandt='###'";

For Oracle:

sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

To find the schema owner:

select OWNER from DBA_TABLES where TABLE_NAME='T000';

Then instead of deleting the SAP* user, you may rename the user.

update <SCHEMA>.USR02 set BNAME='SAP*<SOMETHING>' where BNAME='SAP*' and MANDT=<some client>;

commit; 

Delete from <Schema>.USR02 where MANDT='000' and BNAME='SAP*';
commit;

<Schema> is one of these entries:

if system was originally installed with SAP Basis 4.x or below: SAPR3
if originally installed with SAP Basis 6.x (That is ERP 5): SAP[SID]
If originally installed with SAP Basis 7.x (That is ERP 6): SAPSR3


You then need to change the instance parameter:
'login/no_automatic_user_sapstar = 0' (Zero) and restart the system. You can then logon to client '000' with User SAP* and password 'PASS'.
IMPORTANT: You must create your user ID in client '000' and Recreate SAP* then change the instance parameter 'login/no_automatic_user_sapstar = 1' and restart the system.


If you want to change SAP* in clients other than 000, simply use the same procedure and adapt client number accordingly.

Hello Gorkan, if you know password of user in another client you can use that trick:

UPDATE PRD.prd.USR02 set BCODE=(select BCODE from PRD.prd.USR02 where BNAME='KNOWUSER' and MANDT='100') where BNAME='DDIC' and MANDT='000'

This is actually not security related, but we will tollerate it for a while if you are patient.

SAP is not an iPhone App.... 🙂

Once you get started on ABAP you will realize that you need a few years to get really good at it.

So... while waiting I suggest that you read the forum rules (to avoid asking basic ABAP questions). To find the forum rules of engagement, you are kindly invited to make your first attempt to use the search (this is a life skill!!).
