Hi,

I am not sure if this works or not, but try the following:

Go to the bin directory i.e. <WAS_HOME>/bin and type the following at the system prompt:

/wsadmin.sh -conntype NONE (in case you are using Linux/Unix.

When the wsadmin prompt appears type securityoff

wsadmin>securityoff

Restart your application server after this.

I hope that it will work.
