WebSphere does NOT have security enabled but users trying to access console are getting "access denied" exceptions when running as non-admin id. . WSRegistryImp X Unable to initialize user registry class com.ibm.ejs.security.registry.nt.NTLocalDomainRegistryImpl for type Window due to exception: Access is denied. . It appears that, even though security is NOT enabled, that WAS AEs still tries to initialize the NT user registry. LOCAL FIX: Must run as admin user. This undesirable because customer does not want all the developers to have admin privileges.Local fix Developer must be given admin privileges.Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server users * * which are running without root or * * Administrator privileges. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WebSphere initializes the user registry * * even if security is not enabled. If * * the server is not running with root * * privileges (Administrator on NT) the * * server will fail to initialize. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** WebSphere initializes the user registry even if security is not enabled. The default user registry is Local OS. This registry requires root (or Administrator) privileges to initialize. This failure caused the server to fail to initialize.Problem conclusion Temporary fix Comments
