can't log in NetWeaver AS ABAP trial

[former_member560656]

Hi All,

I am learning ABAP. Installed Netweaver AS ABAP trial version. To renew the test license, I use the login under the SAP* login. The last time, due to several unsuccessful password attempts, this user was blocked. As a result, I cannot renew the license and use the program. What can I do to be able to log in?

Thanks,
Emil

did you try user ddic, user bwdeveloper ?

Hello,

how about using the DDIC user? It is supplied in client 000 and 001 with the same password than the SAP* (look carefully and don't use an 'l' instead of the correct '1' in the given default password). With the DDIC you should be able to unlock the SAP* user.

When I use DDIC user with password PASS the same than the SAP* user I get "Logon not possible (error in license check)" message. Client 001. What's the password for the BWDEVELOPER user?

[jmodaal]

Hello,

for the BWDEVELOPER the same default password is valid, but when the error message is about an error in the license check, I guess you will be faced with the same message when using BWDEVELOPER. It seems the password of DDIC, DEVELOPER or BWDEVELOPER is not the problem. You need to get logged in with the SAP* in client 000 to be able to implement a license file.

If there is no possibility using the SAP system to unlock the SAP* user, you can try it on OS level using some SQL tools (isql or similar). As it seems you have lost the correct password for SAP*, you can try to delete the USR02 record for SAP* and set the profile parameter login/no_automatic_sapstar to 0, then start the SAP system again. Having the profile parameter deactivated then you should be able to use SAP* with password PASS.

SAP note 870871 offers some information about the installation of a license, also mention a possibility to do it outside the SAPGUI by using a program "saplikey".

Hello,

when I try to log in as a SAP* user in client 000, then I get the message "Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)". And how can I use the utility to edit the database? Netweaver AS installed on openSUSE

[jmodaal]

Hello,

I guess I have a solution for you. It is about renewing the license on OS level.

1.: Start a console in your Linux (I assume that you have installed the trial system in a Linux environment, running in a VirtualBox). Use the NPLADM user (su npladm) and change to the directory /usr/sap/NPL/SYS/exe/run (pwd /usr...).

2.: Show the installed licenses using saplikey.

saplikey pf=/usr/sap/NPL/SYS/profile/DEFAULT.PFL -show

3.: If you do not have a valid license file available, get a new license file on https://go.support.sap.com/minisap/#/minisap. The hardware key is available in the list of existing licenses (-> list from previous step). Copy the license file to a path accessable from the Linux OS (shared folder in VirtualBox?).

4.: Delete the current license with

saplikey pf=/usr/sap/NPL/SYS/profile/DEFAULT.PFL -delete NPL (your hardware key) NetWeaver_SYB

5.: Install the new license file with

saplikey pf=/usr/sap/NPL/SYS/profile/DEFAULT.PFL -install (your license file)

After that you should be able to log in into the system using DDIC or DEVELOPER or BWDEVELOPER, and with that login you can use transaction SU01 to unlock the SAP* user and assign a new password.

Hello,

when I renew my license at the OS level, does the ABAP server need to be running?

[jmodaal]

Hello,

you can do that with a running SAP system. Don't know if it's a must. At least the database has to be started.

[former_member560656]

Hello,

Thank you very much, it turned out to install the license at the OS level. The only thing I did not delete the previous license, because. I didn’t quite understand the prompt - is it necessary to enter the hardware key with spaces or without.

I run everything at once with the prompt startsap ALL

[jmodaal]

Hello,

the outdated license could also be left in the system, should not make a difference. The hardware key usually contains no space... so does yours? If so, then typically a parameter value with a space has to be embraced in quotes.

[former_member560656]

Hello Jan,

I mean, not in the hardware key itself, but in the prompt line
-delete NPL*(your hardware key)*NetWeaver_SYB

* - is it space here?

[jmodaal]

Hello,

yes, it's an own parameter, to be separated with a space from the others.

saplikey pf=/usr/sap/NPL/SYS/profile/DEFAULT.PFL -delete NPL (your hardware key) NetWeaver_SYB

[former_member560656]

Hello,

thanks, now I understand

[FredericGirod]

did you try with password "Down1oad" ?

[FredericGirod]

it is not a L it is a 1

[former_member560656]

I tried users SAP*, DDIC, BWDEVELOPER with password Down1oad . Unfortunately, none of them pass.

After I installed the license at the OS level, I changed the password for these users to my own. And how can I return them to the default ones Production Password?

[former_member560656]

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your answer, it turned out to install the license at the OS level.
