Hi,

Right click on controller installer and select "properties" option and in the popup select "unblock" option and save changes and run the installer as admininstrator, we suspect that controller glassfish server is getting blocked or the pre-requisites for controller installation might not have met.

Can you please confirm whether you have followed the docs:
http://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO12S/Install+the+Controller+on+Windows#InstalltheControlleronW...

If you still see the issue, send the logs under <Controller_install_dir>/.install4j/installation.log and install.log under <controller_install_dir> and <controller_install_dir>/logs to debug further

also we request you to post pro related queries under section http://appsphere.appdynamics.com/t5/AppDynamics-Pro/ct-p/AppDPro, as posting under different section might not get noticed by the support team

Thanks,

Arun

Hi ,

Glad to hear that the controller installation succeeded, we understood you are able to access controller but failed to login in UI.

Can you please provide the following logs:
- screenshot with contoller UI error message
- logs under <Controller_install_dir>/.install4j/installation.log

- logs under <Controller_install_dir>/.install4j/response.varfile

- and install.log under <controller_install_dir> and <controller_install_dir>/logs to debug further

Thanks,

Arun

Hi,

Thanks for the logs, i had gone through the logs that you sent in email, and found that that the username you are trying in login screen is "testuser" but we see that user name is "appadmin" from response.varfile:

#install4j response file for AppDynamics Controller 3.6.3
#Tue May 07 14:57:56 CST 2013
....
databasePort=3388
userName=appadmin
sslPort=8181
controllerConfig=demo

Can you please try to login with the user name and password you have provided during controller installation for fields [user], [password] and [re-enter password] fields, so the username is "appadmin"

Please let us know how it geos.

Thanks,

Arun

Hi,

If you forgot the password/re-password provided during controller installation for user appadmin,

Please find below the steps provided below to reset the password

1. Use following commands to connect to the Controller's bin directory from command line. This directory is located here: <Controller_Install_Directory>/bin.

cd <controller-install-dir>/bin

2. Use following script to access the login database of the Controller;

For Windows: controller.bat login-db

For Linux: sh controller.sh login-db

You should now see a MySQL prompt.

3. Use following SQL command on the MySQL prompt to get user details:

select * from user \G;

check the list of username listed in the query output and provide the user id for the user listed in query output for the username you provided during controller installation.

4. Find the column "Name". This columns contains user credentials.

Given below is the sample output:

account_id: 2
id: 4
version: 47
name: appadmin
modified_on: 1301964505856
created_on: 1301935604565
created_by: 1
modified_by: 4
display_name: user1
encrypted_password: c0b137fe2d792459f26ff763cce44574a5b5ab03

email: admin@changeme.com


5. Find the user's id associated with the user's name. For the above sample output, to change the password for "appadmin", you require the user's id, which is "4".

6. Use the following SQL command to change the password:

update user set encrypted_password = sha1('mynewpass') where id = 4;

You should now be able to log into the Controller UI with the new password.

Thanks,

Arun

Hi,

Thanks for the update. creating user from controller database is not the right approach and hence it will not help, user must be either created during controller installation or from controller UI,

please try to reinstall and let us know how it goes. make sure there are no errors related to user creation while installation

Thanks,A

Hi ,

Thanks for the query output. we suspect that the user creation failed somehow, as we could appadmin user is missing in user table output. which should have been there.

also can you access controller at http://server1:8090/controller and try with username and password for appadmin user.

as we see from server.log: -Dappdynamics.controller.hostName=server1

If you still see the issue, reinstall controller and do note the username and password provided during installation and check if installation succeeds and try to login, let us know how it goes

Thanks,

Arun
