    Problem:

    [wsadmin] WASX7246E: Cannot establish "SOAP" connection to host "localhost" because of an authentication failure. Ensure that user and password are correct on the command line or in a properties file.
    [wsadmin] Exception message (if any): "ADMN0022E: Access is denied for the getProcessType operation on Server MBean because of insufficient or empty credentials."
    [wsadmin] WASX7213I: This scripting client is not connected to a server process; please refer to the log file C:\WAS7\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\logs\wsadmin.traceout for additional information.
    [wsadmin] WASX8011W: AdminTask object is not available.
    [wsadmin] WASX7015E: Exception running command: "$AdminApp list"; exception information:
    [wsadmin] com.ibm.ws.scripting.ScriptingException: WASX7206W: The application management service is not running. Application management commands will not run.

    Solution:
    The username and password is either wrong, or you cancelled a prompt for username and password. You can pass the username and password in the wsadmin command line to stop this error. You can also modify soap.client.props.

    locate the soap.client.props file within the properties folder for your application server's profile

    #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    # - authenticationTarget ( BasicAuth[default], KRB5. These are the only supported selection
    # on a pure client for JMX SOAP Connector Client. )
    #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    com.ibm.SOAP.authenticationTarget=BasicAuth

    com.ibm.SOAP.loginUserid=
    com.ibm.SOAP.loginPassword=

    ==================

    Example: If you username and password is wasadmin then modfiy as follows

    #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    # - authenticationTarget ( BasicAuth[default], KRB5. These are the only supported selection
    # on a pure client for JMX SOAP Connector Client. )
    #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    com.ibm.SOAP.authenticationTarget=BasicAuth

    com.ibm.SOAP.loginUserid=wasadmin
    com.ibm.SOAP.loginPassword=wasadmin
