I’m getting the following error when changin the password in the Integration server.

(IS.SERVER) [ISS.0053.53.2] 2011-08-06 10:35:30 AST FATAL: Access denied for user Administrator on port 5555 → ‘invoke/wm.server/ping’ from 127.0.0.1.

I already changed the password on the WMTaskClient and WMMonitor package home page? Is there any other place I should change configuration?

Below listed are few things that has to be considered after changing Administrator password…

1. MWS > Administration > System-wide > Users
2. MWS > Administration > My webMethods > System Settings > Task Engine Settings
3. IS Administrator > Package Management > WmMonitor home
4. IS Administrator > Package Management > WmTaskClient home

Hi,

In MWS 10.3 getting below exception during default password change for user ‘Administrator’

I am pretty sure entering the right password.

[POP.001.0002] A “com.webMethods.sc.directory.DirectoryException” occurred with the Message "Unexpected Error: [POP.003.0141] The username/password you entered is invalid.

Strange! did you try from “sysadmin” portal, if that works?

Also, i think it can also be changed via “xmlImport.xml” as I remember doing it for “SysAdmin”
