Overview:
Sharing an HANA XS access issue I faced recently on one of the HANA standalone appliance box.
Issue:
Unable to login to XS Administration Tool, or any other HANA XS application for that matter.
Simulate the error:
- Access the XS engine URL http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/hana/xs/admin
- Enter user credentials.
Once the user-credentials are entered and clicked on button Login, nothing happens. The browser hangs..
Error Analysis:
Use Chrome’s Developer tool to capture error; in my case got following error:
http://<hostname>:<port>/sap/hana/xs/formLogin/login.xscfunc 500 (Internal Server Error)
- Apart from this very generic error, I was unable to find any other traces / error logs.
- User-id has all relevant (and probably more!) XS roles.
Resolution:
- Refer SAP Note 2039240
- In HANA configuration ini file xsengine.ini –> for parameter application_list –> add value libxsauthenticator
- In my case this did not work, as not all other parameters were present. Hence, restored the default value of the parameter
Restore of the values fixed it for me as well! Thanks for the tip
Awesome ..it works for me.
