An attempt was made to authenticate the locked user "<<username>>"

Bas de KlerkJul 4 2019

Hi,

today I noticed one of my ORDS based REST services wasn't working.

Looking at the tomcat logging ( catalina.out ) via which ORDS is hosted, I found warnings "An attempt was made to authenticate the locked user "username" "

This is not a DB user but the user you have to login into ORDS which was created with "java -jar ords.war user <<username>> <<userrole>>"

How can this user be locked ( too many faulty authentication attempts? )?

How can I (pro-actively) monitor this and where are these users stored ?

How can I correct this ( for now I just recreated the user but maybe there is a better way ? ?

Hope you can shine some light on this

Regards

Bas
