Unable to log into Maximo after installing demo database maxinst.bat


I am getting this message every time go to http://test-max75:9080/maximo/ui/

BMXAA0025E - The method can not be called because application server security is not enabled. Enable Application Server Security. For details, see information on defining server security in the information center.

I logged into WebSphere console and checked to see if Application Security is enabled. It is:

Solution

  • The error is due to a mismatch of settings in the database. Although the WebSphere setting is set for Application Security, the database value must also match.

    From a SQL tool, run this command:

    SELECT PROPVALUE FROM MAXPROPVALUE WHERE PROPNAME ='mxe.useAppServerSecurity' ;

    If the value is 0, this confirms Application Security is not set to true on the database level.

    1. You need to change this value to 1

    UPDATE MAXPROPVALUE SET PROPVALUE= '1' WHERE PROPNAME = 'mxe.useAppServerSecurity';

    1. Restart the Maximo Application Server

    For WebSphere 7.0.0.15: System administrator > node agents > check on the node agent box > Restart all nodes
