AIX

Hi,

When I try to login on my vios ivm website http://vios through the browser -- all three of them -- firefox , chrome , Internet Explorer , i get this error

http://vioserver/j_security_check

I have java installed on the machine from where i am trying to open up the IVM/VIOS webpage.

I have googled for this error but no luck. Anyone have a clue about this error

j_security_check is used in JSP for a FORM based authentication method.

If the login succeeds and the caller is authorized to access the secured resource, then the container uses a session-id to identify a login session for the caller from that point on. The container maintains the login session with a cookie containing the session-id. The server sends the cookie back to the client, and as long as the caller presents this cookie with subsequent requests, then the container will know who the caller is.

If the login fails, then the server sends back the page identified by the form-error-page setting.

thanks bibinajith, that was helpful. It solved the problem however the other problem remains which is I cannot open the Console from the IVM page. when I click on it, nothing happens. No java applet opens up. Do you know what could be the issue ?

That command will break you out of the restricted shell, and give you root access on the box.

Code:

oem_setup_env

ps -ef | grep http

Shows this /usr/bin/ksh /usr/ios/lpm/sbin/httpdmgr start

so issuing a "restart" there might do the trick.' Executing "/usr/ios/lpm/sbin/httpdmgr start" gave me an error stating that lwistart.sh was not running. I located that at /usr/ios/lpm/gui/httpd/bin/ and executed it.


Issues resolved. everything is working
