Disabling global security

You can disable global security through the administrative console. If global security is not working properly, it can cause the server to not start, or to start without providing you with the ability to log into the administrative console.

About this task

If you cannot log into the administrative console and you must disable global security, locate your profile_root/bin directory and first run the wsadmin -conntype NONE command. At the wsadmin prompt, type securityoff and then type exit to return to a command prompt. Restart the server with security disabled to check any incorrect settings through the administrative console.

If you can log into the administrative console, you can disable global security by completing the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Click Security > Global security.
  2. Deselect the Enable global security check box.
  3. Restart the server.

Results

Global security is disabled.
