User PIXXXXX (client XXX) has no ICF authorization XICACHE for executing /sap/xi/cache

Background:

We recently completed SP Upgrade to our SAP PI7.3 system. Though there were no known issues during SP Upgrade/Post Upgrade Steps,

on activation of Objects in ID resulted in either Cache Update Failure or does not start.

Additionally, more details about this issue can be obtained from Application Server ST11 Trace.

From ST11 trace: User PIXXXXX (client XXX) has no ICF authorization XICACHE for executing /sap/xi/cache

Reason:

Its obvious now it is due to missing authorization issue.

Solution:

          • Make sure that Post Installation Steps are followed after SP Upgrade.

          • Ensure that the user has all the following Roles:

                          1. SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_PI_CFG_SRV

                          2 SAP_SLD_CONFIGURATOR

                          3. SAP_XI_ID_SERV_USER

                          4. SAP_XI_ID_SERV_USER_MAIN

                          5. SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR_J2EE

          • Even after following Post Installation Steps judiciously, if the issue still persists,

                         1. On the Integration Server, execute transaction SUPC for SAP_XI_ID_SERV_USER(in your client) to regenerate possibly changed roles.

                         2. Once done, complete the USER COMPARISON under PFCG.

                             Hint: Make sure that Authorizations Tab and User Tab are in Green.

This should resolve the issue. Happy if this blog have helped you.
