Solution - 

1. validate the boot.properties files if the username and password have been set

2. If not, update the boot.properties files with the username, password of the weblogic server and restart the managed server. Username/password can be provided in cleartext which will be encrypted by weblogic server

3. If the boot.properties file does not exist, please create a new file.
