I think this means a user in Appian that will be used as the service account for the deployment. Here are the steps forum.appian.com/.../User_Management.html

How are you doing the deployment? Via browser or via script? Do you have an active session before running it? It seems this has to do with the fact that you have Siteminder enabled

Can you try without Siteminder or making sure that you have an active session when trying? I am almost positive it's related to the authentication.

I was actually thinking of completely disabling Siteminder. Hitting a different URL will still trigger the Siteminder filter. Almost positive the response is an HTML page saying "Unauthorized".

My suggestion was to rename the spring-*override*.xml to .bak and restart the app server then try again

I confirmed that you need to whitelist /suite/plugins/servlet/deploymentautomation so that Siteminder doesn't require authentication for it.
