Administrator role from weblogic was accidentally removed and now we can't login to console or em.

Is there any way to restore de Administrator role for weblogic?

Thanks;

Nicolás

a) Do you have a backup of the WLS config files (so also the ldifs of the internal LDAP)?

b) Do you have another admin?

c) How good are you at writing ldif files manually?

check this link...

this is for OBIEE 11.1.1.7.x, you didnt say the exact version of obiee 11g.

The problem is that the role still exists but is not assigned to weblogic anymore so you can't loggin to the console to restore the role.

GROUP. Not ROLE is the issue. So basically WLS integrated LDAP is screwed and things don't even get to EM. Much more basic and serious.

As same as @Christian Berg said Did you get some backup of the ldfis files?

Yes sorry, thats the matter. The group exists but is not assigned to weblogic so we can`t reassign it from console.

Its not integrated to LDAP, its the default security.

The ROLE is never assinged to weblogic. weblogic inherits the role because of his membership in the GROUP BIAdministrators.

"The WLS-integrated LDAP". Weblogic uses an internal LDAP. THAT is where you messed up. You must restore the WLS LDAP to a correct state.

For example. - FOR EXAMPLE - this is a 11.1.1.9 WebLogic integrated LDAP LDIF entry for weblogic.

FOR EXAMPLE!
