How to enable a user to change his own password at EP7?

I want to give the EP7 users the ability to change their own password at EP.
Can we do that thru any role assignment or some development is needed?
Any detailed help would be appreciated .
I'll give points. Thanks!

Hi Jones,
It is possible to change their password in EP 7 with eu_role(Everyone Role). After you are login in the portal, just go to your personalize and select the User profile in the personlize. In that user porfile having number of tabs, you should select the General Information and click the Modify button, after you getting the edit mode with the changing the password option. It ask old and new password, after you give the password and save it.Once you change the password, just you have to log off and Re - Login with new password. Its working fine.
I hope this is helps to you.

How to enable ebs users to change their own passwords.

Hi,
Is there any profile option which will enable the users to change their passwords on their own from EBS front-end applications...?

Hi,
Is there any profile option which will enable the users to change their passwords on their own from EBS front-end applications...?Users can change their password from the application itself (Edit > Preferences > Change Password).
If you want to force all users to change their password, see (How To Force All Applications Users To Change Their Password? [ID 414976.1]).

User is not able to change his own password... Only DBA can change users password ??

Hi,
I have this problem today.I am using Oracle 8.1.7 on Solaris 2.8
A Oracle user say " SCOTT" trying to change his password but could not.. he gets the followling message
SQL> alter user scott identified by abc123;
alter user scott identified by abc123
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28003: password verification for the specified password failed
Scott's profile has password_verfiy function. Hence i thought abc123 password was not matching with the password verify condition. Surprisingly, what ever password SCOTT tries with, he could get the same error message and could not change his password.. Ultimatly SCOTT could never change his password. How is it possible ??
It is noteworthy to mention that if i give DBA role to SOCTT then he can change his password with abc123 or any thing that satisfies with password verification function.
Now Only a user who has DBA role or a DBA could change passwords..
Can somebody through some light on it and explain what corrective action to be taken so that Users can change their password without DBA's interreption.
Thanks in advance

This is the description of the error message:
=============================================================================
ORA-28003 password verification for the specified password failed
Cause: The new password did not meet the necessary complexity specifications
and the PASSWORD_VERIFY_FUNCTION failed.
Action: Enter a different password. Contact the database administrator to find
out the rules for choosing the new password.
=============================================================================
it clearly says that password has to match the complexity specifications. You will not be able
to change password without meeting the complexity requirements.
DBA's can make the change to the password because if DBA's can not change the password, it could lock
you out of the database (all users including the DBA's) and you will not be able to access the
database.
Try removing the password verify function and see if you can then change the password succssfully.
</PRE>
hi Prakash,
The verify password function is standard oracle function and I do not think the current problem is any way related to the rules that were framed in verify password function. The key point here is a user could not change his own password. But a DBA or a user who has ALTER USER system privs.. can do so..

Command #user can change there own password (inside script..without passwd)

HI,
I have prepared one script, from which user can change there own password across all the nodes he wants.But problem is script is not working because the following command is not working
echo -e "$oldPassword\n$newPassword" | passwd
i have tried to run it manually but it is showing the folowing error....
[testuser@xxxxxx01 ~]$ echo -e test\ntest123|passwd
Changing password for user testuser.
Changing password for testuser
(current) UNIX password: passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
[testuser@xxxxxxx01 ~]$
any idea how to resolve this , or is there any other command where user can change their own password (inside a script).
Regards,
Ani

When you change the password and are not root user, the passwd utility will ask for the current (old) password. You have specified a wrong old password, plus the utility will ask for confirmation of the new password.
<pre>
$ passwd
Changing password for user dude.
Changing password for dude.
(current) UNIX password: asdfasdf
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
$ passwd
Changing password for user dude.
Changing password for dude.
(current) UNIX password: correct_password
New password: How_will_1_ever_remember
Retype new password: How_will_1_ever_remember
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
$ old_pwd='How_will_1_ever_remember'
$ new_pwd='My_secret_passord_1'
$ echo -e "$old_pwd\n$new_pwd\n$new_pwd" | passwd

Is there a way to prevent an end-user from changing their own password?

All you guru's out there, I need your help. Is there a way to prevent an end-user from changing their own password? Is there a function or procedure I can create or what?

In this case, you do not want someone (whoever they are DBA etc) to connect as that
particuler user to change the password.Yes, but I wouldn't expect the users to[i] know that password. The connnect would be handled automatically, behind the scenes.
The clear implication of the OP's question and response was that users would not be allowed to change their own passwords. I'm guessing this is in response to a policy that says users mustn't have simple passwords like 123abc or mom. In such a scenario a better approach would be to apply regexp to a user's password to ensure it contains a mix of letters, numbers, punctuation, etc to achieve the desired level of complexity.
So questions, should not be regarded as daft Agreed, but the same is unfortunately not always true of business decisions. As the OP has told us not to ask we cannot know why they want to do this. Personally, I think a user's individual password should always be their responsibility; anything else strikes me as insecure. YMMV.

User's changing their own password

Is it possible to allow user to change their own password when logged onto a portal applicastion I have written ?

Presumably, the application you say you have written, is a Login Server partner application. So changing the user's password means changing it on the login server.
The URL that you need to go to, to do this, is something like: http://server.domain.com/pls/portal30_sso/portal30_sso.wwsso_app_user_mgr.change_password?p_done_url=xxxxx
Where xxxxx is the URL where you want control to go after the user submits their new password.

Enable portal users to reset their own password

Dear Forum,
I want our users to be able to reset their own password in our portal solution (NW7.01). I tried to add "pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/general/com.sap.portal.eu_role" but it gives too many options, users should not be able to change their name only password. I thought about changing UME parameters "UME Manage_My_Password
UME Manage_My_Profile" But I am in doubt where to change this in VA. I guess some security settings also apply (lenght, digits, capital letters etc) which should be in the security tab?
I hope someone can elaborate.
Thanks in advance,
Kind Regards,
Soren

Hi Manoj,
UME parameters are in visual admin of the java stack - not sure if this was what you were asking. i was hoping that there was a parameter I could set which would apply a additional button on login screen where you could reset your password, or maybe do it from the portal / personal settings yourself.
I am not much into programming web dynpro tools, so I think ill try to see if I could find a way to enable "forgot your password?" on the login page where you can mail a new password for yourself.
Thanks tho for the link, its much appreciated!
Kind Regards,
Soren

How to restrict a user to change his/her account information?

Hi,
I want to restrict some users so they can't change their account
information (password, name, homepage, etc.).
Any clue?
TIA

This is an interesting issue because we want to allow our end users to enter account information such as contact info, address, email, etc. However, we do not want to allow them to change their default group and home page setting or mass confusion will happen. There has to be a way to do this!!

How to enable create user option in portal under user administration?

Hi,
In Portal, in user administration tab, always the create user and Copy to New user option is disabled, how can i enable those?
-Siva

If the AS ABAP is your datasource for your users there is NO WAY you can create users in the portal UME.
● If the UME has read-only access, you cannot modify user attributes stored in the ABAP system, like first name and last name. You can modify attributes stored in the UME database, like street. Even if read-only access is assigned, users can still change their own passwords.
● If the UME has read-write access, you can create users using the tools of the J2EE Engine. Users created in this way are stored as users in the ABAP system. Extended user data that cannot be stored in the standard ABAP user record is stored in the database of the UME.
in the read/write access the users are created only in the ABAP side and not the java. If you have the read access you cannot create users in the abap side. hence you need the SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION role to create users in the AS ABAP.....
Trust me .......bottomline ....you cannot create users in the JAVA UME if you have AS ABAP as your datasource !!!!
hope this helps..

How to enable root user in Yosemite

I see in SEARCH how to enable root user in LION but not Yosemite. Does anyone know how? The sys prefs button choices is different so can't find out how to do.

Do a backup before doing anything. To delete them you will need to enable the Root User and log in as the Root User. You need to be very careful while logged in as the Root User because you can delete any file and could potentially ruin your system. As soon as the non-functioning applications are deleted, log out and use your normal account. Did I mention doing a backup?

How to stop the users from changing User Profile

Hai,
It is not possible to restrict SU3 to display, because it has only S_TCODE has the authorization object.
If you really want to restrict users from changing their profile you have to remove the SU3 access and give SU1 or SU2 which gives access only to Personnel details and Parameters.
Hope this helps.
