SAP Note 1600846 - JSPM/SUM calls sapcontrol without user credentials

Component : Support package tools for Java -

Summary :
The SAP note addresses issues where JSPM/SUM halts due to authentication errors when accessing the sapcontrol web service, resulting in errors like "HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized." This problem occurs with older versions of JSPM/SUM when the sapstartsrv requires user credentials for operations, a default behavior in newer SAP KERNEL versions detailed in SAP note 1439348. To rectify, SAP suggests updating to the latest SUM version or adjusting sapstartsrv settings by modifying "service/protectedwebmethods" in DEFAULT.PFL, followed by restarting services and instances, then restoring settings after updates.
