Windows NT ID versus SID ADM

Here is my problem.
I installed the Developer Workplace (NW2004S SPS6) on my laptop on Windows XP.
1- I log on my machine using my DOMAIN\USERID which is Administrator og my machine.
2- I access EP using ADMINISTRATOR and it works BUT, if I try to access User Management, I've got an error on the page saying "Access denied" (Javascript type of error)
However, if I log on my machine using <SID>ADM rather then my normal userid, everything works perfectly.
I thought that maybe I would need to be part of the NT groups created by SAP during the installation but it doesn't seem to solve the problem.
Thanks in advance for any help !

Hi Benoit,
Try to logon to the Developer Workplace installation from the Visual Admin. You can start it from this file system location \usr\sap\<SID>\JC<instance_number>\j2ee\admin\go.bat
You can manage users from the Security Provider service of the Server nodes.
If everything works from there, then it's likely that the OS user DOMAIN\USERID group policies for DOMAIN interfere with the local for your laptop security policies. To resolve this you'll have to talk to you DOMAIN admins.
Hope that helps you out.
Regards,
Yonko

OS User SID ADM profile not loading in Windows 2008

Hi Experts ,
We have installed Netweaver 7.o EHp1 BI 7.01 on windows 2008, MS SQL 2008 .
After few days, we are not able to login with the SIDADM user. The error getting is "User profile cannot be loaded"
'The LoadUserProfile call failed with the following error:
The system cannot find the file specified."
We did a domain installation and so the user is a domain user too.
Since this user cannot be loaded , we have problems with transports , becasue few environment variables are related with this user name(dbms-type etc) . So stms transports not running and outputs error.
Kindly advise how I can make this user logging in .
Thanks and Best Regards,
Nibu Antony

> Could you please let know where exactly the Profile file exist.
The profile is a registry hive under HKEY_USERS.
> Also please let me know whether I can add the Environment variables
>
> dbms_type,DIR_LIBRARY,MSSQL_SERVER,MSSQL_DBNAME as system environment variables(Not as user variable) so that I

Note that the SAP system doesn't run in <sid>adm context but in the context of the user SAPService<SID>.
Was that user maybe (by accident) deleted from the domain and recreated?
I'd open an OSS call and let the support have a look on the system. The "clean" way would be to take a database backup and reinstall the system as homogeneous system copy.

Change password for Domain\SAPservice SID and sid adm user

Hi guys
During NW711 installation, Ii gave OS User password different with master password.
Now i would like to synchronise the OS User password with master password(DDIC/SAP)
How to change the password for below users
SAP System administrator <Domain>\<sid>adm
SAP System Service User<Domain>\SAPService<sid>
Appreciate immediate response.
regards

Hi,
If I am not wrong you system is installed in windows. You can change the password in the domian controller under users OU or you can ask your domian administrator to change the same. But, I would recommend not to do this as after chaging the password the sap system will not start and you need to update the changed password in all the places wherever the mentioned IDs are used. For eg. in SAP_<SID> service and SAPOSCOL service.
Also, if the installation is in cluster then need to be more carefull and see where all need to update the changed password.
Thanks & Regards,
Sharath

Username SID adm changed

Hi Friends,
One of our SAP servers OS login username has been changed from <SID>adm to <SID>admin.<xx>.<yy> as the server is migrated to a new domain.
I believe that OS login username should be <SID>adm on windows.I notice that all environment variables set for SAP and Oracle ealrier are now gone.
Do you think this change would cause severe problems for administration and should be changed back to <SID>adm.
Environment:
SAP 4.7EE
Oracle 9.2.0.5
Windows NT
Regards,
Basis Admin

The user get's normally a new SID (Windows unique identifier) when changing the domain.
As a result he will get a new HKEY_CURRENT_USER registry hive, nothing copied from the old one.
the easiest way to fix the system is:
run a homogenious system copy using the backup/restore option (nothing has to be done on restore, because the database is already there).

Getting BHO from what looks like a program by eboom that shows up as a small window on RH bottom side. Also webpages being redirected automatically.

I get a small window on bottom RH side of my screen with "suggested sites" Usually the very site I am on. I right click on this window and it does not act alike a normal window, cannot close it or view its source. It does state that Eboom is providing suggestions.
Also something, i think this malware or BHO is trying to redirect my webpage. I have set up Firefox to not redirect. That helps a little. Also opening links in new tab seems to help.
I reviewed my add-ons and extensions and nothing unusual. I have tried to look for something in history and I have found very little. I have run multiple malware, spyware, adware, and virus Scans. Used Malwarebyte, SuperAntispyware, Norton, and Exterminator from PC Pitstop, all to no help. I have looked up this information and all I find is an issue with a toolbar on IE. I do not get a toolbar.
These links are some of the attempted redirects.

Default password for SID adm

The subject says it all - I am new to MaxDB, and did not install the application.
We are trying to update some tables, and get permission errors.
I have the SUPERDBA user, but that user does not have permissions on the <SID>ADM tables.
Is there a default password for the <SID>ADM database user?
I am probably missing something very easy here.

SAP customer - yes - I am reviewing the documentation - it leaves a lot to be desired
Here is the output you requested:

BRTOOLS errno 13 when logged in as user sid adm

Hi,
Just upgraded to 7.2 (14) BRTOOLS, Netweaver on Oracle/UNIX platform.
My brtools open when I'm logged in as ora<sid> user, however they fail with permissions on the Oracle directories when I try and run brtools as user <sid>adm.
I've verified the file permissions against a known working instance on the br files and they are matching.
The error I get is below, I know it must be file permissions somewhere, can someone advise, thanks.

Hi Richie,
Are the environment variables properly set for <sid>adm and ora<sid>?
Try to see if the dot (.) profiles in the home directories of <sid>adm and ora<sid> are consistent.
Also, as ora<sid> recursively change the permissions for /oracle/S02/saptrace to 755 [chmod -R 755 /oracle/S02/saptrace]
Also check the permissions of brtools executables in the /sapmnt/<SID>/exe on the database server.
Normally, they should be something like shown below.
-rwxr-xr-x 1 <sid>adm sapsys 1578637 Feb 20 2011 brrestore
-rwsrwxr-x 1 ora<sid> sapsys 2303924 Feb 22 2011 brtools

Bash shell for sid adm and ora sid user

I'm planning to make bash shell as the the default shell for my <sid>adm and ora<sid> user. Will there any issues? It seems harmless.
My current setups are ECC6 on top of AIX 5.3 and Oracle 10g
regards,
Marjan

The only problem is permission of user access to that bash shell. as well as what u u want to run i mean to say if it is any haevy erport or update insert or refresh functionality then do not run at the time of haevy load.
Thanks

Hello Experts,
I have done a system copy of SAP ECC6.0.The target and the source system are on the same host.Hardware platform is HP-UX 11.31 and database is Oracle 10g.Both the systems are up and running now.
While target system installation, I gave the "master password"(password for all users) same as in the source system.
But when the target sysetm was installed, I found that <target sid>adm and ora<target sid> ,ddic passwords are not working.For J2EE_ADMIN, the password is working.
Please guide how to change ( or reset) the password of <target sid>adm and ora<target sid> without knowing the old password.
DDIC password I could able to change by logging into the system with SAP*
Please Help..
Anupam.

Please guide how to change ( or reset) the password of <target sid>adm and ora<target sid> without knowing the old password.
You need to login with root and then just type passwd sidadm and give the new password.Same you can do it for orasid.you can change it with root as it has administrator rights and will not ask for the old password.

Upgrade assistant Server error: your username is root, but must be SID adm

Hi GURU's,
I am working on "Combined Upgrade & Unicode Conversion" 4.6C ==> NW2004s
When starting Upgrade assistant and continuue with upgrade getting following error:
Server error: your username is root, bu must be <SID>adm
I have option to continue, or cancel
When I choose "Continue" Upgrade assistant disconects from Upgrade server
Has someone any idea, what is the reason, and how can I solve this issue.
PS: I have also tried to start upgrade with <SID>adm user, but the same error.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi,
The whole upgrade should only be executed using <sid>adm, not root. I suggest to re-run the upgrade using <sid>adm user.
Also ensure all files in /put directory have correct permissions.
Cheers!

Brtools statistic error as sid adm in Oracle 11g

When running brtools statistics as <sid>adm I get this error. When I run it as ora<sid> I do not get this error.
BR0301E SQL error -2133 at location BrOraThrEnable-1, SQL statement:'ENABLE THREADS'

I have 2 Oracle databases on the Linux(Redhat) server - one version 10.2.0.4 & the other version 11.2.0.2.
Any advice on what I should be looking at to fix this error?

hi Bill,
please check following note.
Note 1449619 - BR*Tools cannot be started on Oracle 11g
Problem 2
The BRCONNECT statistic function cannot be started on Oracle 11g and under the user <sid>adm on Unix platforms. Directly after you call BRCONNECT, a termination occurs with one of the following SQL error messages, for example:
sidadm> brconnect -u / -c -f stats -t all

BR0280I BRCONNECT time stamp: 2010-04-21 18.11.02
BR0804I BRCONNECT terminated with errors
solution:
Problem 2
Install Version 5 of Oracle Instant Client 10.2.0.4 (or higher) on the database server.
If you have installed Oracle Instant Client 11g and are still using the standard version of BR*Tools 7.20 (in other words, you are not using the 720_EXT tools), and if Oracle Instant Client 10g is not installed on the database server, you must also create the following soft link:
> cd /oracle/client
> ln -s 11x_64 10x_64
