Problem Note 49541: Special characters in SAS® internal account passwords cause a configuration failure

DetailsAboutRate It

When you create passwords that contain special characters created for the sasadm@saspw or sastrust@saspw IDs, the following error might appear in the SAS® Deployment Wizard:

Error configuring addLoginModule :
application-policy=webinfpltfm-encryptDBPassword
login-module=org.jboss.resource.security.SecureIdentityLoginModule

This failure might occur when you include any of the following characters in the password:

  • underscore (_)
  • comma (,)
  • asterisk (*)
  • plus sign (+)

For example, consider the following password:

O_r,i*o*n+123

This password contains the characters listed above, so it will cause the error.

To work around this issue, remove the special characters from the password.
