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.

Best regards
