One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 2.9 - Administration Guide

Cannot delete account

Wrong Account name:

As an Asset Administrator, if you attempt to delete an account and receive this error, "This entity has access requests which have not yet expired or have to be reviewed. It cannot be deleted now", this could indicate that Safeguard for Privileged Passwords is trying to change the password on an account that does not exist on the asset.

One reason for this error message is that the wrong account name was used when adding the account to Safeguard. So now when someone requests the password for this account, Safeguard displays the password that was manually set. However, when the requester attempts to log into the asset using the "bad" account and password, it will fail. If the access request policy specified Change password after check-in, the above error message appears when the administrator tries to delete the account from Safeguard for Privileged Passwords.

Workaround: To delete the account with the misspelled name, first manually set the password on the account. Once the account password is reset, Safeguard for Privileged Passwords will allow you to delete the account.

Cannot play session message

If you receive a message that says "Cannot play session... The specified executable is not a valid application for this OS platform", you are most likely attempting to run the Desktop Player on a 32-bit platform, which is not supported.

  -OR-
