USR40 - password in exception list error message

Hello,
At our company, we planned to maintain USR40 table with easily guessed passwords. We ended up preparing a quite a big list. There are as many as 4000 users and we are afraid that this may create a big impact. I say impact because the error message that pops up when user changes his password to one of the exceptional ones is as following:
"Password is in exception table"
Can we change the above error message to a customized one? We want to make it some what more detailed so that users are not frustrated.
Thanks for your help!
Regards.

It depends on how you set the login/* parameters - as this will influence not only the structure of the password but also the likelihood of a certain pattern.
A classical example is if the password validity period is set to 30 days, then including the months (January, February, etc) is a good idea. More likely you have 90 days, so including the seasons will be a significantly better idea. But one special character somewhere in the password combined with a lock counter set to 5 (my recommendation) is much easier for the users to remember (as a rule, not the password...) and you to communicate to them.
Personally, when I get this USR40 message, then I do think a bit about the password quality and have a little list of known "silly passwords" like 'ASDF', 'SUMMER', 'TEST', etc which I maintain, but that's it. It should really be self-explanatory to the user that their password is rubbish. Otherwise, don't include it in the USR40 and concentrate on the special characters and possibly even 1 number to "break" the word or phrase.
> It may not be possible for us to inform the 4000+ users...so somehow we wanted them to be notified in a user-friendly way...
SM02 system message is one option. A session_manager transaction start at next logon is another. There is also an exit in the SAPGui logon program you could use.
Cool is also an email from the CEO to all employees, after you hack his / her password in a (legal!) audit
Cheers,
Julius

White list error message

Hi Experts!
We have an issue when displaying originals(in DIRs) in PLM WUI, Portal.
The issue can be summarized like this:
JPG-Images or PDF files are stored on a shared folder. (Not in SAP System)
We then create an original in a DIR(document info record). We do NOT check in the original but only use file as a link.
(In our solution we will not check in the originals but the versioning will be controlled in the linked folder).
Example:
We create an original with the following link
sharedfolder\images\image01.jpg
Anyone can afterwards log on the system and click display original and the jpf or pdf is shown.
This procedure works perfectly fine when we are in SAPGUI.
But in the Portal the system acts different from case to case.
Case 1
When a colleague of mine has added an original in SAPGUI and I
then press display in Portal I get a security list error message, Wrong downloading server
(We have defined the white list, TCode wdr_acf_wlist, and downloaded it.
In this case we have tried
sharedfolder\images\ as downloading server for example)
Case 2
When I have added an original in SAPGUI and then press display in the Portal the image is shown
->Why do I NOT get the error message in this case?
Any ideas why the system works this way and how I can solve it?
Thanks in advance!
Mikael

Hi Mikael,
I was led to this thread via search on SDN for "white list". We need to set up an external facing portal and need to set up reverse proxy plus white list. We have an OSS message running with prio very high but don't seem to get a helpful answer. Can you give info on how to configure the revese proxy (we aim at citrix gateway as reverse proxy) with white list? or can you describe your architecture with focus on white list? very kind regards, Matthias Kasig

Source List (Error message 06 722)

Hi all,
1.the material being ordered has the source list requirement flagged in the material master in purchasing view.
2.source list has been maintained(with a same vendor in several contracts in different periods)
3.both above belonged to a same plant 1000.
when ME21N, I input vendor, material, hope it can find the contract I maintained in the source list, unfortunately, the error message 06 722 displayed!
but there is no problem if I manually enter a contract number in ME21N, i.e, I can save the po.
my question is:
is it standard by design?
as I know, when I create PR, tick "source determination", it can find the proper source if I maintained a correct source list.
but in ME21N, it seems the system cannot find the proper source unless I manully input the contract number!!!
Error message 06 722
Source not included in list despite source list requirement
I have read
720695 ME21N: Contract is updated for exchange item
668764 FAQ: Source list in purchasing
457110 FAQ: Source determination in purchasing
no help...
thank you in advance.

Check the plant you entered for the item.
Maintain the source of supply in the source list for this material/plant combination:
1. Select the item.
2. Select Environment -> Source list.
3. Enter the corresponding material and plant.
4. Maintain the data for the source of supply and then select Save.
5. Select Mark in order to get the data for the purchase order that was created.
6. Exit the purchase order and restart the SAP ordering transaction.
7. Select Check.
hi,
it is not relevant....

Un caught exception: application error message

Hi, I seem to be getting this message everyday now: uncaught exception: application net_rim_bb_facebook_lib (136) is not responding, process terminated.
It is driving me crazy, I keep missing facebook messages and the only way I can fix is by taking the battery out. But this still means im missing messages and I have to keep checking via mobile link then once ive responded they start coming back through.
Driving me crazy now, if I had the money to get an iphone now I defo would do, apart from that I love this phone when it works!!!!! Please help!!!!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
There's pretty much no diagnosing those -- they are the equivalent of the random errors in Windows for which tracing the root cause is fruitless. Basically, these are the last out in the programming code -- some event occurred for which there is no handler in the code. The fix is a code update that handles the event...but, again, knowing what the event is is pretty much impossible. So, there are a few things to try:
Sometimes, the code simply becomes corrupt and needs to be refreshed -- just like a reboot:
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
If it won't boot up cleanly, then you may need to try Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode
There might be an updated code set from the carrier -- check them via this portal:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
The toughest possible cause is a badly behaving app. To find it, there are a couple of options. One is to see if you can read the log file:
Go to the home screen. Hold down the "alt" key and type 'lglg'. (You will not see anything while you type).This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably many pages) untill you see a line that says 'uncaught execption'. Click on this line. The name of the app will be in the info. Alternative methods for bringing up the logs are in this KB:
KB05349How to enable, access, and extract the event logs on a BlackBerry smartphone
The other method is to remove apps one at a time, waiting a while in between (I usually recommend a week), until the problem ceases...thereby discovering the offending app. Still another method is to reload the BB OS cleanly, leaving some time between adding other apps onto the BB so as to be able to determine exactly which one is the cause.
Good luck and let us know!

You need to read about Exceptions and Exception handling. This is a very basic and well documented aspect of programming so a quick search should solve your problem.

HT201320 I have tried for over 2 hours in trying to set up an email accout and followed the directions. I keep getting same error message over and over again. Invalid use rid or password

I have tried for over 2 hours to get email on my phone. Shut off and on and tried to pick new password. Keep getting error message. Very frustrated

Since the title of your post says " ... invalid use rid or password ...", I suspect the issue is some illegal mix of blanks and/or special characters (e.g., punctuation) in either your user ID, password, or both.
Be very careful you are following the rules for what constitutes a legal user name and a legal password.

Why do I get an error message when I put in my redemption code?

Maryland Institute College of Art and Design allows their students to download a yearly subscription to Adobe Creative Suite using an intermediary website mica.onthehub.com. Following the instructions I obtained my new redemption code and was directed to https://creative.adobe.com/educard to renew my subscription. However, every time I try to enter my password I get an error message with the following: "We're sorry. Something seems to be wrong on our end. Please try again later. If this continues to fail, please contact Customer Support." I've tried multiple times but the issue doesn't seem to be resolved. I'd greatly appreciate some help.

Thank you for your help so far.
I went through the process of activating this redemption code with a support technician from my university, and they weren't able to activate this code either. This technician has activated many licenses on campus and has never seen error messages like this.
Additionally, the form's error even states that this is due to a problem on Adobe's end of things. This is the redemption code that was supplied by the OnTheHub people, and it's not working. Why is that?
Additionally, when I log into my Adobe account and look at what's listed under my "Products and Plans", it said something along the lines of "We can't display all of your plans at this time." Perhaps this is related to why I'm unable to activate this license?
