Right. I disabled external auth before removing the Demo password. The cause: Min API Level. It was set to version 7 in the Admin Tool. I cleared it and restarted the services, then it worked. I wish BMC would address this issue of installers and the API level. EIE 7 is a version 7 application and should use the version 7 API. If they must use old API's to install new applications then at least display an accurate error message. BMC makes all the software involved: ARS, API, EIE. Their installation programs should test to see if the login error is due to Min API Level and report it to the installer. At the very least they could compile a [very] tiny v7 API console application that uses the v7 API to report back to the installer the Min API Level. Stephen

I also tried removing the password for Demo. I disabled all external authentication (it was using LDAP) and restarted the services. No other ARS applications are installed, other than those that come with the base ARS Server package. Any ideas?
