Problem in logging into SDM

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am facing a strange problem while logging into SDM server in J2ee WebAS. After providing userid and password if i enter, it shows a message in the bottom that 'Attempting to logon into <server name>' for long time (more than a day) and not logs into it and remains in the same state until we close it.

could anyone tell me what may be the problem.my userid and password is correct. pls guide me if anyone encountered this type of problem and solved.

/points will be assured/

Hi,

To deal with the common SDM problems, go through the SAP Note 997810 - Troubleshooting Common SDM 6.40/04s Issues

Hope this helps !

Hi Gowda,

i checked the log files but no information is available there. the file is empty. And only the following files are created on the particular date when i try to log in to SDM in the log folder.

sdmgui20080103.txt

sdm_remotegui.out

sdm_remotegui.err

No such file sdm_server on that date. One old file is there but it is empty.the file sdmgui2008... says logoon was successful. but i am facing the same problem. so pls guide me further

Thanks & Regards,

A)

are you able to login to Visual Admin tool?

B)when you start the SDM GUI, one commend prompt window will open, could you let me know last few lins of that.

1) Access the usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE_NAME>/SDM/program directory.

2) Access the this script file :

(i) RemoteGui.bat (In Windows)

C) if B) looks fine then

I think the SDM password is wrong..

do this way

1. stop SDM

2. open the commend prompt d:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\program

3. type sdm jstartup "mode=standalone"

4. type sdm changepassword "newpassword=abcd1234"

5. type sdm jstartup "mode=integrated" ( otherwise engine will not come up)

6. start SDM

now try with SDM password "abcd1234"

okay, do this way

From some other installation (with same version of SP or bit older version of SP) copy the SDM ( ...<SID>\JC00\SDM )folder to some location( c:\temp) on problem host system.

start the "RemoteGui.bat"; file . now try ...let me know.

note : to run SDM you need JDK...

if you don't have any other installing then emil me shri_hassan@yahoo.com with NW version and SP version details.

Hi,

1)if you want to access the SDM pls start (on windows) the remoteGui.bat on the local server. There it is only possible to enter a password and a hostname( no Username entry is possible)!?!?

2)You can restart the SDM with with batchfiles in the same directory.

3)Did you change the Administrators's password. -->Then you have to change it in the ticketkeystore of the confiigtool as well. Please be aware that the administrators's password is identical in the UME and the ticketkeystore.

4)Double check that nobody else is locked on to the SDM (no living session)

hope that helps

Hi Martin,

Thanks for ur reply.u mentioned something as 'ticketkeystore' u mean 'securestore'. if not could u tell me where will it be.

but in securestore no option to store the SDM password.it is for only the j2ee server password.so pls tell me abt ticketstore.

Hi Martin,

I didnt change my Administrator password. So no need to change anything in secure store or ticket store.I restarted many times both SDM and the whole J2ee engine but no use.

Give me some other solution.
