Global Security issue with WAS 8.5

  • 1.  Global Security issue with WAS 8.5

    Posted 09/21/15 07:54 AM
    We are unable to login to DMGR console of a lower environment with our individual IDs as well as our PRIMARY ID (mentioned in security.xml). 

    WAS 8.5, AIX box

    I tried decoding the password for the primary ID user from both security.xml and soap.client.props, but it throws below error in DMGR logs. 


    [9/21/15 3:16:20:397 EDT] 0000014e LTPAServerObj E SECJ0369E: Authentication failed when using LTPA. The exception is com.ibm.websphere.security.PasswordCheckFailedException:
    Multiple users with the name of wasadm.



    P.S> - wasadm is our primary ID

    Also, Started to see below error after couple of hours of above error.
