If you have just entered these and then immediately see a 401 error, it means that one or both of your user ID and password were invalid for whatever reason (entered incorrectly, user ID suspended etc.).

@satish504 wrote restarting all the SAS Services in the correct order. Yes the order of execution could result in the 404 error.
