ABAP SP - SAPMMC error Start failed: 2 Invalid Credentials

[#1]

Hello everyone,

I installed the new ABAP Sneak Preview a week ago and just got back to it to enter the new license, etc.

But when I try and start the System within the SAPMMC I enter my username and password, then an error pops up "Start failed: 2 Invalid Credentials".

I tried the other usernames and passwords setup during the installation, but no go.

Everything was fine during and after the installation. I was able to logon to the system and start the WEbDynpro demo.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim Bungay

Usually the nspadm user, which is created during the setup should be used to start the system from the SAPMMC.

Is this user still on your machine?

Yes, this user still exists on the machine.

I tried uninstalling the installation in order to reinstall everything, but I run into another problem during the uninstallation.

When I'm prompted for the SUPERDBA and CONTROL passwords I get a password invalid error, therefore I can't even uninstall either.

Any ideas????

Try start NSP service before you uninstall it.

Hi Ray,

The NSP service had started.

I uninstalled it manually and then reinstalled with the same problem.

So I decided to start and stop the system using commands "startsap" and "stopsap".

This works and I can still monitor the system via the SAPMMC.

This is good enough for me.

Thanks for everyone's input.

Cheers,

Jim
