Boot permission error starting managed server using startManagedWebLogic

Question

Hello
          I have a clustered WLS environment and am having problems starting the managed server from the command line using startManagedWebLogic.cmd script. The managed server starts without any problems from the admin console. Using the startManagedWebLogic.cmd script and the same login as I use for admin console, I am getting the following error when I execute:
          startManagedWebLogic MyServer http://localhost:7001
          Error displayed is:
          <09-Aug-2005 14:21:46 o'clock BST> <Critical> <Security> <BEA-090404> <User vgnadmin is no
          t permitted to boot the server; The server policy may have changed in such a way that the
          user is no longer able to boot the server.Reboot the server with the administrative user a
          ccount or contact the system administrator to update the server policy definitions.>
          The WebLogic Server did not start up properly.
          Reason: weblogic.security.SecurityInitializationException: User vgnadmin is not permitted
          to boot the server; The server policy may have changed in such a way that the user is no l
          onger able to boot the server.Reboot the server with the administrative user account or co
          ntact the system administrator to update the server policy definitions.
          Has anyone come accross this problem before? What can I do to run the managed server from command line?
          My environment details:
          OS: Windows 2000 Server SP3
          WebLogic Server 8.1 SP2 (clustered with a single node)
          Thanks in advance for your help.

I have the same issue. However I am using ALES (Weblogic Enterprise Security) with WLS SP3.
          Mine could be an ALES specific issue. Let me know if you have any updates.
