Reset Portal password

Hi All,
I want to reset the passowrd of portal of some users.
when i go to user admin --->search and then click on modify , Iam unable to see the field such as automatic passowrd generation , Password and confirm password field for some of the users.
For many users Iam able to see those fields .......
can anybody tell me why there is differnce in the fields in modify page  between the users.
Thanks,
Master.

Hi,
  I think this could be because those users may have been created on your
Ldap. What kind of Ldap are you using?You can only modify passwords of
those users who have been created on the portal.
For the rest you may have to access the Ldapserver for this.
Hope this helps
Regards
Vineeth

  • Issue in reset portal password.

    Hi Experts,
       I have implemented "Forgot Password" functionality in our portal (EP7). It was working fine. But now we are getting an issue.
      If we locked the user from r/3 end using TCode 'SU01' or if the user get locked for too many wrong password attempt and then  he/she try to reset the password then this functionality not working. If we try to reset the password we are getting the mail with new password but with the new password portal not allowing us to enter. It's giving " Authentication failed" error.
    But If we reset the password without locking back-end user then itu2019s working. we are getting the mail with new password and  portal  allowing us to enter.
    Means if by any chance the backend user is locked then it's not working.
    what could be the reason?
    Thanks
    Sujan Indu

    If an administrator locks a user explicitly from SU01 (User ID Locked), then the user should not be able to unlock himself using the portal password self service application. That is the whole purpose of an administrative lock.
    However, the application should work if the password is locked due to a number of unsuccessful logon attempts.
    See SAP Note 1397312 -
    "users are allowed to reset their passwords only if it is locked because of too many failed logon attempts. If the user is locked by administrator he is not allowed to reset his password."

  • Portal Password Reset problem

    Hi All,
    My scenario wants an automated process where the users can reset their own password. Do you know if the user password reset on the logon page is a automated process? Does the email with password go directly to the user or the email goes to the administrator and then the administrator has to reset the password? Do I need to configure the SMTP in my client system for this? If so can you give the steps involved for configuring SMTP?
    I have configured SMTP server by logging as Administrator in portal -> System Admin -> Sys Confgiruation ->
    Universal Worlist & Workflow -> Engine and gave the notification email as 'JavaMail'.
    The again portal -> System Admin -> Sys Confgiruation ->
    Universal Worlist & Workflow -> Email edit it gave the Host name as my SMTP mail server name. I checked my mail server through telner <mail server> 25 and it is opening in command prompt. Am I missing anything here in SMTP configuaration. Fileds like Pop3 User and Pop3 Password I wanted to leave as blank but when I click save in Portal , it self add some encrypted values.
    can Anybody has done the above scenario.Its urgent.
    I have read on help.sap.com and it looks like it sends an email to administrator and then the administrator resets the user password. Is my understanding correct on the above.
    Can anyone provide me a step by step approach on the same.
    Suitable answers will be rewarded definitely.

    I found some information about this on SDN and on the help.sap.com site that might help:
    First look at:
    Change/Reset password option on the login page
    and:
    Password Reset
    Then check here:

  • Portal password reset page text changes

    Hello Experts,
    We are using Portal 7.02 SP13. We use the standard password reset tool for allowing users to reset their passwords.
    On the logon page there is a link Get Support which the user clicks to reset his/her password.
    Following this user sees the below where they select the option Password Reset and click Submit button.
    We want to change the text Are you a suuplier having trouble logging in?
    I have tried looking in the portal logon page PAR file to locate this text in some properties file, but a unable to locate it. Where do I find this text? Is it present within the logon page PAR or is there some other component within which I can find this?
    Regards,
    Saurabh

    Hello Experts,
    In the logon page PAR file I am able to find a JSP page umHelpPage.jsp which contains this line
    <div class="urTxtH3" tabindex=0><%=logonLocale.get("HAVE_TROUBLE")%></div>
    and when I do a View Source from the Password Reset page I can see the below line
    <div class="urTxtH3" tabindex=0>Are you a suuplier having trouble logging in?</div>
    I have looked at the logonLabels.properties and logonLabels_en.properties files under the umlogonbase.jar file within the portal logon PAR file, but for the key HAVE_TROUBLE I can see the text "Having trouble logging in?".
    Howevert at runtime I see the text "Are you a suuplier having trouble logging in?", does this mean that this text is not getting picked up from the logon page PAR file?
    Regards,
    Saurabh

  • Portal: Password reset and unlock User via UME?

    I'm new to Portal and SAP.  I'm trying to find options to have a username unlocked and password sent to user based on a userid from our Portal logon page.
    The end user needs only to know their user ID, and based on this user ID I need their username to be unlocked, and a temporary password to be emailed to them (Looked up from their user ID via Database) 
    From what I've been reading UME can do this, but when I look into configuration of it I'm not seeing anything that can define this to show up on the Portal logon page.  Does this have to be developed and built in or linked as a separate page or is there a prefab one made already(nothing I could find showed evidence of this, although the documentation regarding UME hinted at this)?
    The end user doesn't need to answer security questions because to get access to the portal they already have to be on my secured network. 
    Any help would be great!

    Andrew,
    This link might help explain what is possible with SAP Portal in terms of allowing the user to reset their password from the logon screen.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/45/7e6313d8780dece10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
    As for allowing a user to unlock their account from the logon page, there is no such functionality that I know of.  This would need to be developed.  We are doing something similar.  In our case, we are developing a module that allows user to retreive their user ID if they forget it.  This also is not functionality that SAP provides.  The user can specify their email address, and it emails them their user ID.  This is being developed in Web Dynpro for Java utilizing the UME APIs.

  • Allow Anonymous Access to the Password Reset Portal

    How do I go about enabling Anonymous Access to the Password Reset Portal?
    The following instructions don't seem accurate anymore.  Has this setting changed with Sharepoint Services 3.0 SP2?
    When I click on "Settings" in Step 4 the only option displayed is "Permission Levels".
    Allow Anonymous Access to the password reset portal
    In this procedure you will configure the portal to allow Anonymous Access to users who need to reset their passwords.
    To allow anonymous access to the password reset portal
    Log on to the password portal (http://<portal hostname/PasswordPortal) as an administrator.
    On the top right hand side of the portal homepage click Site Actions, and then click Site Settings.
    Under Users and Permissions click Advanced Permissions.
    On the Permissions page, click Settings, and then select Anonymous Access.
    Under Anonymous users can access, select Entire Web site, and then click OK.

    Yes, that was very helpful.  Thanks! 
    Just in case that site dissapears and someone else needs this info, here it is:
    If you don’t see the “Anonymous Access” menu option in the “Settings” menu, it might not be turned on in Central Admin/IIS. You can manually navigate to “_layouts/setanon.aspx” if you want, but the options will be grayed out if it hasn’t been enabled in IIS
    First get to your portal. Then under “My Links” look for “Central Administration” and select it.
    In the Central Administration site select “Application Management” either in the Quick Launch or across the top tabs
    Select “Authentication Providers” in the “Application Security” section
    Click on the “Default” zone (or whatever zone you want to enable anonymous access for)
    Under “Anonymous Access” click the check box to enable it and click “Save”
    NOTE: Make sure the “Web Application” in the menu at the top right is your portal/site and not the admin site.
    You can confirm that anonymous access is enabled by going back into the IIS console and checking the Directory Security properties.
    Now the second part is to enable anonymous access in the site.
    Return to your sites home page and navigate to the site settings page. In MOSS, this is under Site Actions – Site Settings – Modify All Site Settings. In WSS it’s under Site Actions – Site Settings.
    Under the “Users and Permissions” section click on “Advanced permissions”
    On the “Settings” drop down menu (on the toolbar) select “Anonymous Access”
    Select the option you want anonymous users to have (full access or documents and lists only)
    Now users without logging in will get whatever option you allowed them.
    A couple of notes about anonymous access:
    You will need to set up the 2nd part for all sites unless you have permission inheritance turned on
    You must do both setups to enable anonymous access for users, one in IIS and the other in each site

  • OSX Server password reset portal doesn't communicate password requirements

    Here's the story:
    We are migrating our users to a new fileserver running OSX Server 2.2.2 on 10.8 from an existing 10.4 server.  We have prepopulated the user accounts with the same login names as our old server, and set temporary passwords for each user that they will need to reset.  The plan was to have each user set their custom password via the built in web portal.  We've got Windows and Mac Users, so we are expecting at least the windows users will have to set their passwords this way, as the Mac users can be forced to reset their password at first login.
    The issue is that we are are implementing stronger password requirements on the new server, but the password reset portal doesn't seem to communicate that at all.  When entering the existing password, and a new password that is not strong enough, we get the error:  "Your password could not be changed.  Please retype your old password and try again" which is misleading because it is an issue with the new password being too weak, not the old password being incorrect.
    Is this normal behavior for this reset portal?  It's pretty basic, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's just the way it is, but we are looking for a way to keep it as simple as possible for our users, and to avoid unnecessary confusion.
    For the record, our password requirements are:
    password minimum length = 8 characters
    passwords must contain:
    at least one letter
    at least one number
    at least one special character
    differ from last 5 passwords used
    be reset on first login

    Another helpful forum user said:
    Then you might try this procedure to create a new administrator account:
    http://osxdaily.com/2010/08/10/forgot-mac-password-how-to-reset-mac-password/
    Which i tried. I ran through the help link above which all seemed to work until the end... and i got this error...
    Which means i couldn't get to the part that sets up a new user. :-(

  • Unlock user during reset of password in "GetSupport" page

    Hi gurus,
    I'm quite fresh in Portal development, and one of my first task would be to unlock the user id when the user ask for reset its password in "GetSupport" page.  I found the page umLogonProblemPage.jsp into the Logon par file. 
    And after some research in forums, I found this piece of code which unlock the user id. 
    <%
    public void unlock(String uniqueNameOfUser) throws UMException {
    +     IUserFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();+
    +     IUserAccountFactory userAccountFactory = UMFactory.getUserAccountFactory();+
    +     try {+
    +          IUser user = userFactory.getUserByUniqueName(uniqueNameOfUser);+
    +          Iterator userAccounts = user.getUserAccountUniqueIDs();+
    +          while (userAccounts.hasNext()) {+
    +               IUserAccount userAccount =      userAccountFactory.getMutableUserAccount(userAccounts.next().toString());+
    +               userAccount.setLocked(false, IUserAccount.LOCKED_NO);+
    +               userAccount.commit();+
    +          }+
    +     }+
    But I really have no idea how to call this java code into the html code.  I assume that into the tag <FORM ... I should call the java method as an ACTION of the FORM.
    Does anybody as an idea how to do such thing ? Maybe a better way how to do this unlock of user after we the reset of password ?
    Thank you for all your help

    Hi,
    it is not possible to run that java code in HTML - it has to run in the Portal-Server.
    A .jsp page is a script that runs on the server, normally it is called by a action form the browser (e.g. submit of a form).
    The jsp can contain java code in so called scriptlets, they are indicated by
    <%
           // java code here
    %>
    So you should find the part of the jsp's that is execute, then you want to reset the user. ther yoou may place like this:
    <%
    IUserFactory userFactory = UMFactory.getUserFactory();
    IUserAccountFactory userAccountFactory = UMFactory.getUserAccountFactory();
    try {
    IUser user = userFactory.getUserByUniqueName(uniqueNameOfUser);
    Iterator userAccounts = user.getUserAccountUniqueIDs();
    // rest of the java - code
    %>
    I would recommend to revisit the basics of jsp's and java programming at java.sun.com
    Hope this helps

  • Resetting User Password by calling an external Web Service

    Hi,<br>
    <p>
    We have an external Web Service, which handles Active Directory related activities.  We would like to use this service to help users reset their passwords.  We created a Portal Service from the external Web Service's WSDL.  We have exposed the methods we require from this Web Service and are able to call these methods by creating Abstract Portal Components.  We are currently testing the exposed methods via the Portal Component Starter and Viewer.
    </p><p>
    The current logon.par has a ResetPasswordPage.  The corresponding form within the JSP is submitting data to the following string:
    <br>
    <i>inPortal?proxy.getAlias("RPWFS"):logonBean.getLogonURL(proxy, null)</i>
    <br>
    <p>
    From what I can understand, the proper action URL will be returned by the method getAlias("RPWFS").  However, I am unable to find the definition of "RPWFS" in the PAR file. 
    </p>
    <b>Questions:</b><br>
    <li>
    What does "RPWFS" stand for?  Where is this defined?
    </li><li>
    Would it be possible to modify the ResetPassword JSP file in the logon.par so that upon data submission, the Portal Service is called? 
    </li><li>
    Where can I find documentation on JSPDynPage and DynPage (and how to create and edit the above-mentioned items)?
    </li><li>
    Is there any documentation on the functions used in the logon.par?  For example, what is IAccessToLogic?  Where is this defined?  What does it do?  Is there a library where we can search for information on this kind of stuff (like MSDN for Microsoft and API docs at java.sun.com)?
    </li>
    <br>Thank You.

  • When i want to reset my password i go to Email authentication and no message come to my mail

    when i want to reset my password i go to Email authentication and no message come to my mail
    <E-mail Edited by Host>

    Hi,
    I understand that any email that is leaving Apple is not getting to your email account.
    I linked to the page where you would normally change this so that you could check what your Primary Apple ID and email are.
    My Apple ID is based on an email with a Dial-up service I once had.
    I had changed the email here at Apple Support Communities to send it to a Gmail account.
    Then I linked my Apple ID with an iCloud ID and it reverted to the Dial-up account.
    I can "fetch" mail  from this account as I don't have to be logged in via their dial-up server.
    However if I wanted to Send from that account I would have to Log in via a Dial-up modem which this iMac does not have as standard.
    There is another page where you can change the Email address that is linked to your account.
    You can change just the Email and it will ignore your Apple ID/Primary email from the other page and start sending emails to the one your enter.
    OPTION
    The other option is the choose the Online option to change the password.
    When you login at the first "portal" I linked you to you get an option to "recover" or reset the password in the web Browser there and then with out sending an email.
    You are required to answer the Security Question(s) you set up and list your date of birth.

  • What is the password that gets generated when we reset the password in EP?

    Dear All,
    I have reset the password in the portal from User admin,
    It asks me to enter new password on login,
    but it says,
    password expired.
    I tried giving my own password through portal from user admin.
    It says password reset failed, password expired.
    I am unable to login into portal,
    Please suggest me a solution to get me back my password.
    The UM is linked to LDAP.
    I reset the password through LDAP also,
    Even then it is not reflecting for the portal.
    Please Suggest me the solution to make me login into portal.

    You can change the password from Visual administrator. login to visual administrator, and select services,, under that you will find the system details. change the password.
    even if the visual administrator password is expired then u can go thorugh configtoo.bat and there u can change the password.
    if that even not possible then u need to login to sql and can execute the commands for changing password.

  • Reset Forgotten Password

    Is there an API that will allow me to reset the password of a user who forgot their password?
    I saw in article in posted ( http://technet.oracle.com:89/ubb/Forum83/HTML/000411.html ) but I am wondering if this will change the password in the OID or in the Portal Login Server.
    Thanks

    You could use a temporary LDIF file as a simple solution to do this:
    dn: [user's DN here]
    changetype: modify
    replace: userpassword
    userpassword: abc12345
    It you go about it this way, you will have to worry about protecting the security of the LDIF file (e.g., it should have OS permissions 600 and should be removed right away after running ldapmodify). A better solution would involve using JNDI code or the DBMS_LDAP package to set the password to a new value.
