HPUX System Management Homepage cannot login

[kenny chia]

Hi
I have HPUX System Management Homepage (SMH) Version
A2.2.7 installed on a HPUX11iV2 (March 2008) on a rx2660 machine

I cannot login as root into SMH even with the correct root password. The login page reports Sign-in failure

The only way to solve this problem is to install the latest SMH version (A2.2.8) into the server.

Does anyone have this problem?

Kenny,

Do some basic troubleshooting


1) Started by looking at the smh.log file located in /var/opt/hpsmh/logs . This log showed the following:
INFORMATION LOG (severity=0) Mon Apr 09 12:12:07 2007
Warning: an invalid bypass key was supplied. Access denied.

WARNING LOG (severity=1) Mon Apr 09 12:12:35 2007
User:hpsmh from 172.18.40.214 was DENIED access to System Management Homepag e

2) Also looked in the access_log and error_log but neither one had helpful information.

It seems that some files that should belong to the hpsmh user or group are actually belonging to user or group bin. This includes the commands used during the SMH authentication, which is preventing their execution by the main SMH process, which runs with the privileges of the hpsmh user.

After verifying the following files were set correctly, the user was able to login.


chown root:hpsmh /opt/hpsmh/lbin/catalina.sh
chown root:hpsmh /opt/hpsmh/lbin/start_tomcat
chown root:hpsmh /opt/hpsmh/lbin/status_tomcat
