2612425 - Cannot Log into SuccessFactors Learning via BizX After Refresh

Symptom

  • A recent LMS refresh was completed
  • Can't lot into LMS via BizX after an instance refresh

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Log into BizX.
  2. From the 'Home' drop-down, select 'Learning'. (Sometimes, label is changed to 'Academy', ect...)
  3. User is redirected to a BIZX Production log in page instead of LMS homepage.

Cause

The following values are not changed in the BizX configuration file. (LMS Admin > System Admin > Configuration > System Configuration > BizX)

baseURL=
successFactorsCompanyID=
metadataProviders[IDP1].value=

These values are still pointing to the source instance (normally Production), hence users get redirected to the BizX production log in page.

Note: This is an expected issue that happens after refresh. Refresh activity copies ALL data from the source system, including integration configurations. Hence, administrators are always reminded to have a back-up of configuration files before refresh, then copy them again after refresh. See Before and After Refresh activity in KBA 2165346 - LMS Refresh Request process.

Resolution

If you have backed-up the configuration file before refresh, copy and paste it to the BIZX configuration file.

If not, update the values below.

Value Example
baseURL= https://performancemanager4.successfactors.com
successFactorsCompanyID= CompanyID
metadataProviders[IDP1].value= https://performancemanager4.successfactors.com/idp/samlmetadata?company=CompanyID
