User can't log in / Server can't create new users

I recently updated to OS X Server 10.5.5. Now one of my users can't log in. Wrong username or password the system says. I've reset the password but it doesn't help.
When creating a new user I get this error:
"The server reported the error '-14120' while trying to create the user."
How can I fix this?

Well, to move the stuff, make a New Account, log into a different admin account & get BatchMod, it's much better/easier than the Finder for recursive Permission changes...
http://www.lagentesoft.com/batchmod/index.html
Now careful with BatchMod, it's crazy powerful, but easier than Command Line.
Oh, this bad user isn't using FileVault I hope???
OK, once BatchMod is loaded, you can drag the whole bad user's folder to it's icon and set the Ownership/permissions to the new replacement user, check Apply to Enclosed items, go.
Oh, if you have room you might make a copy of that User's folder first & use the copy.
Then open the bad User's folder, Select All, drag to new replacement User's folder.

  • Create new user for Essbase Integration Services

    Hi,I have two users witch creates olap models and metaoutlines.So I would like to create new user at Essbase Integration Services. How to create new user at Essbase Integration Services level?My system:Essbase Server 6.5.1Essbase Integraion Services 6.5.1Essbase Administration Services 6.5.1Thanks,Grofaty

    A user at EIS level is actually a user set up on the relational catalog where your olap models/metaoutlines are stored. For instance if you got to the OLAP model properties dialog and the General tab you can see the owner here is the user you use to connect to your catalog. You can also prevent other users from accessing models not owned by them by setting the security option from the drop-down list on this tab.Mark Rixon www.analitica.co.uk

    Hi Team,
    I am a junior DBA. New user Joined in Application team. So, Client requested me.....
    Crerate new user with same privileges as like as existing user.
    As of now i am creating user like "create user username identified by "password". Then grant privileges to that user. earliar I never comapare or copied users.
    Please suggest any one how to create new user as like as existing user roles and privileges.
    Thanks,
    Venkat

    For basic cloning:
    select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('USER', '...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('ROLE_GRANT','...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('SYSTEM_GRANT','...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('OBJECT_GRANT','...') FROM DUAL;
    SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_granted_DDL(‘TABLESPACE_QUOTA’, ‘...’) FROM dual;
    Then just replace the username with the new one you want to create.

  • Can't create new users in Administration Services Console

    Hi,
    I am following directions in the Essbase DBA guide for creating new users, as it says you must create a partition user to work with Samppart and Sampeast applications. It tells me to log on to Administration Services Console, go to the Administration Server, and right-click on users to create a new user. However, when I right-click, the option to Create New User is light grey and not clickable, neither is the option to refresh users. Can anyone tell me why I can't create a new user? I am logged in with the username: admin password: password that I set during configuration and that should be the Administrative account.

    Hi,
    What version are you using? If it is 9 then you need to create the user in shared services. I just checked and the option to create a user is greyed out for me too and I am an admin.
    It sounds like you haven't externalised the users which is why the option to do a refresh is not there.
    Thanks,

  • Can't create new users after GroupWise is moved from NetWare to Linux

    Hi,
    I moved GroupWise (Version 6.5 SP 6, single domain and single office)
    from NetWare 6.5 server to SUSE Linux Enterprise server 9. It seems the
    GroupWise server is running oaky. Existing users are able to connect
    their mail box and send and receive messages. But I can't create new
    users on the GroupWise server.
    I used ConsoleOne installed on the Linux server to create new GroupWise
    users. It seemed that I was able to do it. The new users appear on the
    NDS and the GroupWise File IDs were assigned for these users. And I was
    able to add these new users to distribution lists. But the users DB
    files (userXXX.db) were not created under /grpwise/po/ofuser on the Linux
    server and they cannot connect to the server. Old users cannot find them
    in Novell GroupWise Address book.
    Does anyone how to fix the problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    This clearly sounds like your domain (which is the part of groupwise
    which you admin against) doesn't/can't talk to the postoffice, so the
    change you made (to the domain) does never get to the PO (which is where
    the addressbook of your other users come from, and is what is
    responsible for creating the user DB). This seems very likely to be
    caused by your move not being done properly, and old information (either
    path or IP address) for the PO still being in the domain and/or domain
    database.
    So how's the domain linked to the PO?

  • If you can't 'Create new user account' - try this!

    Over the last few days I've wasted many hours trying unsuccessfully to create a new user account so I can post to Apple Discussions. Kept going round an endless loop, back to the 'Create New User Account' form. Tried every possible solution I found through internet searches, to no avail.
    The answer, for me, turned out to be simply choosing a different alias - one that nobody else was using, presumably.
    Why, oh why, isn't there an error message that tells you this? It would have saved me so much time and frustration - and many other people too, I'm sure.

    Welcome, finally, to Discussions - you are not the first to complain about this, if you like, you can go to app.com/feedback and register your complain there as well.

  • Visual Adminstrator: can not create new users

    Hi,
    I've got a problem with my "Sneak Preview SAP NetWeaver 04 - Full Java Edition with Web AS Java 6.40, MaxDB, and Developer Studio" (NW04 SP15) installation. Whenever I start the visual administrator I can not create a new user. All buttons excepting the Refresh Button are disabled.
    If I use the web (http://..../useradmin) I can create new users.
    Now I want to change Security Policies in the Visual Administrator. But the problem is the same.
    Does anyone know any solution?

    my apple ID and password is valid, but appstore says "anmelden nicht möglich"/can't log in. what can it be?
    thanks
    matthias

    I have exactly the same problem. It said I have to reset the password, which is annoying but fine, whatever. However, it won't send me the e-mail I need to do that! I tried a seperate account with my gmail address and the e-mail is sent instantaniously, but my ipns account (the one I really need) isn't recieving any e-mails from Apple at all. I've tried sending it 4 times. Other message boards suggest reinstalling everything, but I really don't want to have to do that, especially since all I want to do is purchase Mountain Lion which requires such actions in itself.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

    The new users are set-up as "standard" and the old ones were "Administrators"
    All files are missing, i.e. no desktop files etc. But they are located in a folder called "Users 1" which is a new folder.
