User id getting locked automatically every day

Hi Experts,
One our user id is getting locked every day automatically with wrong password . We are manually unlocking everyday as of now but don't know the exact reason why is it being locked. And we found that it is getting locked from bo server because of wrong password . But unfortunately there is no background jobs are running in BW and BO. We are unable to find where this going wrong exactly.
Please let me know how to rule out this issue, what are the places we need to check, and how can we get very detailed log about user locking.
Refer the screen shot of user locking log.

HI Daniel,
I am BW Consultant and i am not that much aware of that file. Please provide navigation how and were to check that file.. If possible please provide screen shots. ***Urgent***

SYSTEM user's accounts get locks automatically

Oracle SYSTEM user's account gets lock automatically after every 4-5 days. I user to run following query which unlocks the account:
SQL:\>ALTER USER system ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
How I can stop this happening? I am not able to alter profile for unlimited attempts also.
Is there any workout, please help me....

In my opinion, you should immediately find out who constantly tries to guess the password of system instead of making it possible for him to try that indefinitely without locking the account. That is like switching off the annoying alert sirene if someone constantly tries to break in.
You should

User getting Locked after 1 day

Hi All,
I am facing an issue...a particular user in our SAP ECC 5.0 system is getting locked after every one day, I checked the configuration in SU01 but everything seems to be fine there.
Please help regarding this issue.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Prashant.

Dear Prashant,
Have you activated user trace.If yes then monitor that user ID.It wont be possible that only 1 particular user is getting locked (correct me if I am wrong).There can be a possibility that somebody is deliberately entering wrong password for his ID any other terminal.
If you have activated user trace then you can easily monitor that user ID and even the terminals from where his ID has been accessed.
PS: I might be wrong,so please update me with the latest.

SAPJSF user is getting locked

Hi,
We are using SAP BI 7.0 system on AIX and DB2 combination. I am getting one problem for the past 1 month. our BI consultant is running queries from BI Portal. while running queries from BI Portal, they are getting one error saying that " java i-view runtime error, if this error persists please contact your system administrator". while they are getting this error, I have observed that user SAPJSF is locked due to incorrect logons from ABAP level. once I unlock the user and refresh the BI portal page we are getting in and able to continue with our work.
This problem is repeating for every 3 weeks or 15 days ( but not for the constant time period). for the time being we are unlocking the user and continuing with work. but I want to know why this user is getting locked. it is only happening in DEV system but not in the remaining systems.we have run the support desk tool in BI DEV system and we made sure that we are not encountering any configuration problems.
roles attached to this uder is:
SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION
SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION_RO
profiles:SAP_ALL
please help me in this to solve this problem permanantely.

Generate AWR Report automatically every day

Hi Friends,
I would like to generate AWR Report automatically every day. How do i do it.
The Start Time will be 00:00 of Previous day and the end Time will be : 00:00 of current day. The File format is html.
Currently i am using awrrpt.sql to generate report manually and i would like to achieve it automatically,I am not sure how to pass the values of start and end time (From which table i can get the values)?
Regards,
DB

Hi, DB.
You may use the below sql script , the sql script generates the AWR report for the duration of 2 days in HTML.
So you change
1) the where condition as per your requirement,
2) report name in sql script,
3) and convert it as shell or bat script based on your environment, and schedule it in your OS job scheduler / crontab.

User id getting locked everyday

Dear All,
User Id getting locked everyday having profile SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW.I m not getting any clue why its getting locked everyday.
I tried to check RFC and background job job also but i m not able to find.everyday i have to unlock it.
Kindly suggest me how to check.
Regards
Adil

Hi,
Such issue mostly happens due to wrong attempt of login in SAP system client with that SAP User id either through RFC login, external- program, script,etc...
If you have checked all the RFCs login settings and not able to found the login attempt, then Enable [SAP Security audit log|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/c7/69bcb7f36611d3a6510000e835363f/content.htm] using SM19, SM20 and analyze the logs for that SAP User id only.

How to execute a store procedure automatically every day

NT4 and Oracle816,I wanna let Oracle execute a store procedure automatically every day.
How to do it?
Thanx.

There are a few ways to do this: first of all you could write a script file and schedule it to run every night.
Another solution is to use the DBMS_JOB package. Refer to the documentation to see how it is used

Hi Jean,
You can check NWDI_ADM user in your NWDI System & SLD System. To check where user is getting locked you can go to Visual Admin --> Server Node --> Security Provider --> User Management:
Search for NWDI_ADM user and see when it was last locked. Perforn this on both NWDI & SLD system.
To resolve this issue.
1. Make sure you have same password defined in NWDI & SLD system OR
2. Run configuration wizzard in NWDI System which will prompt you to enter password for NWDI_ADM user. TO do that please go to
http://NWDIserver:<portnumber>:nwa --> Deploy and Change. From there run configuration wizard for CBS; CMS & DTR. and before doing this make sure you have correct password for NWDI_ADM user in SLD & NWDI System.
What I generally do is keep same passowrd in NWDI & SLD system. Thats my way of doing thing and keeping less complications.

          hi,
          1. Check whether u have mistakenly called the session.invalidate() method if
          u are using HTTPSession
          2. Check the App.server Session Timeout
          3. If you are using Cookies check whether the cookies MaximumAge is expried before
          the
          complition of your process / transcation.

User is getting locked due to incorrect password every few minutes SAPJSF

I have gone through solution manager configuration both as myself and as user solman_admin. Recently the Solution manager system was changed to enforce a more complex password scheme. After changing my password, my account is now getting locked every few minutes due to incorrect logon attempts. The System log states that user SAPJSF from Terminal <solution Manager host name> is attempting to login with my userID and is locking it. so far I have made every change I know to make to all the accounts on the JAVA side and to any and all background jobs that are running to remove my userID from these entries. My account still gets locked and I have no idea where to find what task or process is locking the account.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I have checked the audit log and it is not very helpful. Here are the results

Getting e-mails every day regarding subscription expiration

I keep getting e-mails saying that my subscription has expired and my payment method has failed. I had an issue last year where someone charged 8.00AUD to my Skype account. This was not me, so I contacted Skype support and changed my password as requested. The 8.00AUD credit was removed from my account, but never refunded to my debit card. My account was then placed on lock from purchasing any services. I contacted them to have them remove the lock, but it was never removed. Now the problem... I keep getting e-mailed once or twice a day EVERY day saying my subscription has expired and they can't process the payment on file. I don't understand this. I don't have a subscription nor could I have a payment profile since my account is LOCKED. I don't even know if the e-mail is correctly associated with my account, it has my first name, but offers no account information. I checked my account online and in the application and I have no subscriptions listed at all. I've tried for the past week or so to use the support portal to put a ticket in or speak to someone, but every time I go there it says "Sorry, we're having problems. Please try again later" I have been seeing this message everytime I try to put a support ticket in for the past few months at least. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey konfusedfae,
I'm sorry for the incorrect e-mails that you have been receiving. We definitely do not want to be a cause of concern.
Your security is important to us and we would never do anything to jepordize your personal information. Do you and your sister possibly share an e-mail address?
Please follow and dm me your mobile number and account password. I want to review your account in detail to make sure that everything is set up correctly.

Have a look at your listener log.
Perhaps someone is trying to login with a wrong password.
Have a look at this link:

User Account getting locked frequently...

An User account which the developers are using is getting locked very frequently when they run some applications. They say they are giving the right password and username within the application. What should one be looking for? I am fed up by unlocking the account using ALTER USER username ACCOUNT UNLOCK;

I have also faced such kind of problems. Most of the developers forget how the application connects. they might have hard coded it or some time using a wrong parameter files.
Need to check who are all the users and how they are connecting and how the application is connecting to the database.
If there are more users then enable audit. Auditing will be the only solution.
