This is the error that one of my mates got while she created a record and tried to save it. For reference, we are running on FSCM9.0/Ptools 8.49.13/Sql Server 2005.
It looked a weird issue , as we don’t have tablespaces in Sql Server.Even in DDL Model Defaults for our Database (Microsoft = 7) doesn’t have any guidance for Tablespaces.
As a workaround , I have unchecked the Platform Compatibility Mode (People Tools->Utilities ->Administration – >People Tools Option).
This helped my mate to create the record and save it.
But I am still pondering about the issue. Anyone reading this post , please let me know your inputs on this. Is there any better way of achieving the same.

In my opinion both approach ( Upgrade or Re-implementation ) has their advantage , and their is no good approach or bad.Even sometimes , it depends upon the customer, vendor capabilities , oranisation capacity to change.
Based on my experience , I jotted down the following points :
Factors Influencing Upgrade
- Less Manual intervention,Automated scripts
- PeopleSoft Support for Scripts
- Less Dependency on Functional/Business Users
- Less Effort – Cost Saving
Factors Influencing ReImplementation
- Heavy Customisation
- Business/Organization Change
- Difference between Source & Target is huge ( typically a major release)
Will appreciate if folks can add other points based on their experience.

If you see this error message , when you logon to your PS environment in 4-tier , please check the following.
- Go to webserver->configuration.properties , and make WebUserId=PTWEBSERVER and WebPassword=PTWEBSERVER . This is the User Id that the Portal uses to access the web profile.
- Make sure that user PTWEBSERVER exists and has PTPT1500 permission list associated to it.
- Make sure that the account PTWEBSERVER is not locked. Unlock the account by UPDATE PSOPRDEFN SET ACCTLOCK=0 WHERE OPRID=’PTWEBSERVER’.
You can run the following sql before updating the PSOPRDEFN table and verify the result :
select * from PSCLASSDEFN where CLASSID = ‘PTPT1500′
select * from PSAUTHSIGNON where CLASSID = ‘PTPT1500′
select * from PSROLEDEFN where ROLENAME = ‘PeopleTools Web Server’
select * from PSROLECLASS where ROLENAME = ‘PeopleTools Web Server’
select * from PSOPRDEFN where OPRID = ‘PTWEBSERVER’
select * from PSROLEUSER where ROLEUSER = ‘PTWEBSERVER’

Installation-8.48/sql server 2005/windows XP November 6, 2008

Yesterday, I faced an interesting issue. While installing FSCM 9.0 (tools 8.48 , OS-Windows XP, DBMS – SQL Server 2005), when I started creating the Database, I ran sp_config, createdb, addobj, configured the tools and connect.sql. Next step is to run datamover in bootstrap mode to setup the Database.
When I tried logging into the database with accessid/password (sa/password1) through datamover, it threw me error “Invalid userid/password for login”.
But at the same time, I was able to login to Sql Server with the same userid/pwd combination. This was a weird issue as i was able to connect to data mover with connectid (people).
For the whole day I was going through books, different blogs, installation book, etc., but this time it didn’t work.
I tried reducing the length of access password (password1) to 4 character. Initially why I chose a lengthy password, its due to SQL Server password policy ( when i chose a smaller password it didn’t allow me to do so). Later I revoked that policy and chose a small password.
This solved my issue. After that I was able to login to the database , and it got created.
Hope this post helps u folks, if next time they face the same issue.
