When trying to connect an existing Identity Manager server, the following error is observed:

No further info is logged by the Connector Xpress 2.0 for REST Applications.

In the Identity Manager logs, the following error is observed instead:

2023-09-08 12:45:01,506 WARN  [com.brcm.connxp.controllers.CDWSRegistrationController] (default task-6) CDWSRegistrationController.configureWebService(): Create web service configuration started.
2023-09-08 12:45:01,510 ERROR [iamframework.webservices] (default task-6) Login failure: Username and password do not match.

The error states that the username/password does not match, despite it allowing logon to the IDM user console with those credentials.

Environment

Resolution

First, check login and password if they are correct.

Enable DEBUG of iamframework.webservices you then should see something like this in the log:
