Issue with Client Local -Invalid User Id Password

Issue with Client Local -Invalid User Id Password

I have been facing an issue with my Siebel dedicated Local client for last few days. I have been trying all the options. I was connected few times initially for few times and then it was not at all connected. I have been searching the blogs and fixing one by one issue. But, still I get the same issue. Finally I was able to make it work with multiple fixes. I wanted to put all of them in one place so that, you can benefit out of it.

Diccache.dat issue:
While checking the environmental logs, initially I have found the issue with dicache.dat file. After checking the google, I have deleted the file from Client/BIN folder and added the below parameter under the [ServerDataSrc] section in client CFG. If this parameter is set to TRUE, Client will download the diccache.dat file from Siebel server and copies in Client\BIN folder. If this parameter is set to FALSE, it won’t download the file from server.

[ServerDataSrc]
UseDictionaryInTransactionLogging = FALSE

Data source issue:

Initially LOGs were indicating that the data source name was invalid OR database already in use. But, after searching a lot, found the solution for the issue.
Removed the Server Name, Start Line, and Database name for SEAW Local Db default instance.




Internet Explorer:
After fixing the user id and password issue, I was able to move ahead and Internet Explorer was opening with Page cannot be displayed error. I was using a 64 Bit Windows machine. And I was referring to IE in another Program Files. After I changed it to correct IE path, I was able to open HI and Open UI Local Client.


[Update] LAN-Wifi Connections
Another issues faced recently with Siebel Thick Client. When accessed the Siebel Thick client, Laptop was connected to LAN and Wi-fi is also ON. After switching off the Wifi/LAN thick client started working.
