I have migrated a WAS 5.1 web application to WAS 6.1. The web application connects to Tivoli Identity Manager thorough API. The application is working fine with WAS 5.1. The WAS 5.1 does not use any adminstrative security.



When i migrated the application to WAS 6.1, the application is now failing to create a connection with Tivoli Identity Manager. WAS 6.1 is using Administrative security with LTPA authentication. The realm definition is set to an LDAP registry.



When i try to connect to TIM with valid userid password, WAS 6.1 server first authenticates it to the LDAP registry and it fails and throws com.ibm.itim.apps.impl.websphere.WebSpherePlatform ContextImpl.UNSUCCESSFUL_LOGIN_TO_APPSERVER exception.



I can not turn off the administrative security. I would like to know if there is any way - any settings on the Admin Console - that allow me to connect to TIM without turning the admin security off.



Let me know if anyone has any idea about this.
