SDM Password

Hi All,
I need to deploy Java WebDynPro application on EP. While deployment , it's asking for SDM Password. As per the SDM Password given in the installation guide , i gave it as abcd1234. But it's not accepting that password and display a pop-up dialog box with message "Server on port 50018 did not accept the SDM Password. Give the correct Password".
How to check the SDM Password on EP Server ?
Regards,
Eben

Hi Eben.
Have you installed a sneak preview version??? If you have not changed any settings, then the pwd should be abcd1234.
Try login to SDM directly thru the sdm batch file & see if you can get in using the same pwd.

Sandip

How to find out the SDM password in WAS server

Hi Friends,
can any one explain how to see the SDM password in WAS server. It is very need ful and urgent?
Thanks & reagards

Hi,
in my opinion you can't see the password. But you can change it.
Changing the (remote) SDM Password
Since the SDM Server offers you functions that you can use remotely, they must be protected from unauthorized use. For this reason, the SDM requires remote users to authenticate themselves with a password. The default shipped password is sdm. You can change this password in the following ways:
Pushbutton in the remote GUI
changepassword command
sdm changepassword sdmhome=<...> newpassword=<...> [password=<...>]
where
newpassword: New password
password: Old password. Since 6.30 SP5, this parameter has been set optional so that the password can be changed without reference to its current value. If this parameter is specified, its value will be ignored.
Note: changepassword command can be executed only if SDM server is stopped (see stop/start SDM Server) and it is in standalone mode (see jstartup). It would be better to return SDM in the same state as it was before the execution.

Timm

Hi Kumar,
Here one drawback is there in SAP EP.
If you change password for Administrator in UME, this same password will not work for SDM by default. You have to change it, for that just follow below steps:
SDM Password Reset
==================
Just enter following lines in your COMMAND LINE:
1. enter SDM directory as: cd C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\program
2. Execute the following (just copy-paste)
sdm jstartup "sdmhome=C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\program" "mode=standalone"
3. Execute following line (replacing Password1 with your new password for SDM)
sdm changepassword "sdmhome=C:\usr\sap/J2E/JC00/SDM/program" "newpassword=Password1"
4. I suggest also revert SDM back to integrated mode
sdm jstartup "sdmhome=C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\SDM\program" "mode=integrated"
5. Start SDM using commnad as "StartServer.bat"
Reward Points; if it is helpfull.

SDM Password issue and errors for Web Dynpro Deployment

Hi,
After checking on SDN with regards to SDM Password and issue, I wonder what is the REAL default password for SDM when deploying web dynpro application.
Some mentioned it's "sdm".
Some mentioned it's "admin"
If refer to documentation (from Sneak Preview SAP Netweaver 2004), it's "abcd1234".
Anyhow, it accepted "admin" for my case, but I got an error when I click on "Deploy New Archive & Run". Hope someone can help me on this error. The error message as below:
Nov 6, 2006 11:04:15 AM /userOut/deploy (com.sap.ide.eclipse.sdm.threading.DeployThreadManager) [Thread[Deploy Thread,5,main]] ERROR:

(message ID: com.sap.sdm.serverext.servertype.inqmy.extern.EngineApplOnlineDeployerImpl.performAction(DeploymentActionTypes).REMEXC)
Deployment exception : The deployment of at least one item aborted
Another issue is, although i am not able to deploy successfully (not even once), but if i click on "Run", it will launch browser, and the web dynpro program is works. Problem is, it's the old version. It deosn't display the latest version.
Can any guru out there explain and provide solution?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Adam,
Error message sounds like "Administrators have the right to perform this operation". do you have admin rights? for deploying.

Can anyone tell me the sdm password needed to deploy a web dynpro appln

Dear Friends,
I am new to web dynpro. I have developed the first example appln given in the sap documentation. But there is a problem when i try to deploy and run it.
i am asked the sdm password. I have tried with the default password " sdm " but it doesnt work. The J2ee engine settings are fine i.e. all the three components are green. I am using the remote server with port 3601.
Can anybody please help me with the sdm pwssword. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks & Regards.
Saurabh.

Hey Saurabh,
First of all some questions to your installation:
- What version of the Web AS are you using?
- Do you have access to the file system of that machine?
- Do you know who installed the system and can you grab the person?
- Is it a Java standalone or a Java + ABAP system?
To your questions (and please correct me if I'm wrong here...):
1) follow the path that I posted before. You probably have a standalone installation, so try J2E for SID and JC01 for instance.
2) every SAP system is installed with a (in your landscape) unique System Identifier (SID). For a java standalone system the default is J2E.
3) the application server can be set up to have several instances (at least 2) for load balancing / clustering environments.
Check out <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/45/dc863f455f3417e10000000a114084/frameset.htm">this</a> link for an overview of the system landscape
4) if step 1 does not work, search for a folder SDM on the server box, there you have subfolders "program" and "root". The sdm.bat file is within the "program" folder.
Cheers,
Mark

Asking for SDM password when deploy locally

Hi,
when i am trying to deploy it asking for the SDM password. I have installed NWD workplace in my pc locally. still i am unable to deploy and run the program.
please help me, and suggest me steps to get rid of this problem.
Cheers,
karthik

Even if your project is not on DTR, ie. local developement you require J2EE sever to deploy your applicaltion.
Go to windows>preferences>SAp J2ee wngine-->set the sever and port.
If its your local WAs set localhost and port 3601.
when you will delpoly the Application, it will ask you for SDM password.

Any assistance is much appreciated

Hi Dajee,
Yes it is deploying correctly. Give sdm as password it sould work if you don't have changed the default password of SDM.

Hi
- Install JDK 1.4.
- Launch NWDS with the JDK. For example, you can provide the following command line argument for this:
"D:\Program Files\SAP\IDE\IDE70\eclipse\SapIde.exe" -vm "D:\j2sdk1.4.2_10\bin\javaw.exe"
