webdynpro under content admin doesnt work

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have an issue with Webdynpro under content administration in portal

When clicked on WebDynpro tab it gives a login page

How do I fix this issue?

I am already part of Administrators group, and I was able to access that before with out any issue, and also have the super admin role assigned to my id

unfortunately there is no error message in the log file

Appreciate any suggestions

Thanks,

Hi Kiran,

Webdynpro content admin login and portal login are different , u may be in the administrators group but dont have the Super admin role assined to your user.

try assignning the Super-Admin Role to your user, or confirm the role structure from the server administrator if he has specifief a seperate role for WDADMIN.

Hi ,

Yes, I have the super admin role assigned already

None of us in our team were able to get to webdynpro under content administration including the other Portal and System Administrators in the team

Hello,

Kindly check for the Role

its the default role provided by sap for netweaver administration.

Hi Kiran,

Mandatory roles to access Webdynpro content under Content Administartion.

1. <b>XS_SUPER_ADMIN</b>

2. <b>Administrators</b>

After you add these 2 groups to your user ID and logoff & login to the portal.

Hope this will help you.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Vasundhara,

I already have the super admin role assigned to my id and am part of Administrators group

try adding your user id in the group called 'Administrators' in the portal. Add your userid to that group and then check whether you can get to that page without getting the login screen.

Hi

1) Check whether your Account is locked if so unlock the same in user admin (http://servername:httpport/useradmin)and change the password and also check whether your user in administrator group. Then logon to useradmin again change the password and try to logon to the content administrator of webdynpro

2) If your Account is not locked . Go to user admin and check whether your user is in administrator group and try to logon to the content administrator of webdynpro

3) Check whether your password is expired or not

Hope this helps,

Hi Arun,

Thanks for your response

1)My account is NOT locked, as I can login to portal and browse through it except the content administrator of webdynpro

however when I use my credentials I am unable to login to <a href="(http://servername:httpport/useradmin)">(http://servername:httpport/useradmin)</a> and no errors in log file, but if I give incorrect credentials it gives "authentication failed" error...

2)The user is already part of administrator group

Thanks

Hi

Try this

1)Assign the user to administrator group in visual admin again.

Login to Visual Admin -> Server -> Services -> Security Provider -> Usermanagement -> Click on Modify -> Search for your user -> Click on Group -> Search for "Administrators" group and add your user here.

2) After assigning try to open the content administrator if doesnt work Try restarting you machine/J2EE engine and check now

3) Try with patching up the web as

Hi Arun,

I was trying to follow the steps, but I am unable to add the user to the group

however I see that the Administrators group is already part of the Parent groups for my id

any ideas?

Activate the emergency user and logon to visual admin and now try to add the administrator (or) other user to administrator user to administrator group and deactivate the emergency user again and now try to logon to webdynpro content administrator now
