Silent installation picks up the wrong DB Password from the silent install properties file.

Overview

You would like to perform a silent installation with a version of Aurea Process (formerly known as CX Process, Savvion and SBM) like the 2019 R2 release where you supply a different  DB_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD in the silent install properties file for each Aurea Process server. 

When you edit the DB_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD with a different encrypted password, the installer uses the DB_PASSWORD or DB_BASE64_ENCODED_PASSWORD values (even if you left them empty) from your silent install properties file to populate the database password in Aurea Process configuration files like the sbmdb.properties file.

Solution

The Aurea Process silent installer should use the value of DB_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD instead of the DB_PASSWORD or DB_BASE64_ENCODED_PASSWORD that is incorrectly used with the silent installer.

This issue has been identified and corrected as of the Aurea Process 2021 R2 release.  Please upgrade to the Aurea Process 2021 R2 or newer to have the silent installer use the DB_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD to correctly populate the database password in the Aurea Process configuration files.

If you are unable to use Aurea Process 2021 R2 or newer, the following are workarounds you can use with the silent installer:

  • Use the same username and password for each of your Aurea Process servers
  • Use the installer's graphical user interface to generate a new database password and then record it in the silent installer property file.
