AS ABAP 7.52 SP01 developer edition: DBACOCKPIT can't login to database

[ChristianGünter]

I'm using AS ABAP 7.52 SP01, developer edition. I'd like to change some DB settings but DBACOCKPIT can't login to the database. I tried all provided DB users, but none seems to work. Does anybody know why?

Solved it!

Apparently the database users are not created with the password Down1oad as specified in the blog post. They get the password of the operating system users that you specify when installing the system!

You can test the password like this:

admin@vhcalnplci:~> sudo su sybnpl
vhcalnplci /home/admin% cd ~
vhcalnplci /sybase/NPL% isql64 -SNPL -Usapsa -X
Password: xxxxxxx

And change it in DBACOCKPIT or DBCO. Then "Test Connection" should return "connection established successfully".
