Location of Security Logs

[Former Member]

Hello,

We are unable to login with Administrator user to http://Hostname:50000/irj and http://Hostname:50000/nwa. The issue is "We are not getting any error message".

After the administrator's passwd is given, the screen is getting refreshed, with no error message. If I give a wrong password, it says authentication failed. If I given a correct password, it does not login, but does not give any message.

Is there a security log, where we can check the reason for Administrator not able to login. Kindly note that the datasource for Java instance is LDAP.

Thanks & Regards,

Dasari

check the logs under \usr\sap\<SID>\J<instance_no>\j2ee\cluster\server0\log\
you can find default traces and under system there are security logs.

First look at the default traces which are at this location:

usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance_ID>/j2ee/cluster/server/log/defaultTrace.x.trc

reproduce the issue and look at the latest modified trace.

You can also trace with the webdiagtool as per note 1045019 which may give more useful information. Follow example 3 for authentication issues.

If your NW is 7.20 or above you can use the troubleshooting wizard as per note
