If the mid server user locked out and Locked out checkbox is checked, then uncheck it. and ensure the roles.
Verify the mid server credentials: config.xml file in your MID Server installation directory and Check the mid.instance_username and mid.instance_password values.
If the password was reset, update the mid.instance_password field with the new password.
Open Windows Services (services.msc) and retart mid server.
finally, check the mid server logs and trubleshoot accordingly.

Hi @velkuruhari ,
Are we talking about the user account on the MID server? If yes, then you should reach out to your server admin to gain access once again.
If my answer has helped with your question, please mark my answer as the accepted solution and give a thumbs up.
Best regards
