Hello Jason, I had the same problem a while ago when I was setting up a test server (a copy of production [ARS7.1patch004/CMDB2.3patch003/AIE7.1patch004] ).
I had to give a new password to Demo in the new test server. This caused the AIE exchanges to fail with an error which stated that it can not access the EIE:BackupLoadFlag form. So first I changed the password on the host machine where the AIE is installed. 1. Backuped the aie.cfg file (just in case). 2. Changed directory to "C:\<AIE_Installation_DIR>\<AIE_Instance>\service\conf" 3. Run eiecfedit.exe -x <servername> -s <servername> -l <username> -p <password> 4. This changed my eie.cfg file I Then changed the password in the AIE Application Console (Configuration => Integration Engine App) to be the same as in 3. After starting an exchange I was getting the exact same error you are getting " InitCMDBConnection - cannot access AR System server" So in the exchanges console I just told it to the use the default destination AR Server. In the Connection Settings I resaved the exchanges by clicking on "No" and then "Yes" (under AR Login Information) and then save for the exchanges which were failing and that solved my problem. Not sure if this is what you did exactly but just thought I will share it with you.

We are experiencing an issue where Data Exchanges stop working after working on other Data Exchanges. We see the following errors in the AIE logs and can see the failure in aruser.log. [Thu May 06 2010 11:26:47.4910] - <TID: 001> <ERR > Error (623): Authentication failed [Thu May 06 2010 11:26:47.4910] - <TID: 001> <ERR > InitCMDBConnection - cannot access AR System server:ITSM76APPSERVER. Error = 2 [Thu May 06 2010 11:26:47.4910] - <TID: 001> <ERR > StartDataHandlers: CMDB Data Handler failed to start. Logging workflow I see where an AL pulls the current credentials from EIE:ApplicationSettings and passes those to aiexfer.exe correctly. It seems that somewhere within the aiexfer.exe process it uses the credentials from the EIE:DataExchange record. These records appear to get out of sync as other Data Exchanges are being worked on. I unhid the fields on EIE:DataExchange to try and manually correct the password. This triggers workflow and changes the hash. I found that it works fine setting the passwords in the db. As a temporary workaround I created a stored procedure that does the following and put it behind a button so I don’t need to go into the db each time the person managing the Data Exchanges starts seeing errors. UPDATE T710 --EIE:DataExchange SET C102 = 'pw1', --Admin Password C15185 = 'pw2, --Encrypted Password C536871114 = 'pw3' --Admin PasswordN WHERE C536870952 = 0 --Use default destination AR server Has anybody else experienced this?
