GRC An error occurred during the login process

On a freshly installed Oracle EGRC(Enterprise Governance Risk and Compliance) 8.6.3 on OEL 5.6, I got this error in front end:

An error occurred during the login process.

On checking $MW_HOME/grc863/grc/log/grc.log, I found this error:

I checked startManagedWeblogic.sh script and found that there was a space before jaas.conf

JAVA_OPTIONS="-Xms8192m -Xmx16384m -Xss512k -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Doracle.security.jps.auth.debug=true -Doracle.security.jps.auth.debug.verbose=true -Djava.security.debug=access,failure -Djava.security.auth.login.config="/GE/erpgrca1/grcapp/weblogic/grc863/grc/WEB-INF/ jaas.config" -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dweblogic.security.SSL.trustedCAKeyStore="/GE/erpgrca1/grcapp/weblogic/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/cacerts" ${JAVA_OPTIONS}"
export JAVA_OPTIONS

I started Weblogic again and a new error showed up in grc.log:

I went through the documentation again and realized that I needed to do this:

If you are installing EGRCC to perform analysis in Oracle EBS or PeopleSoft instances:
1. Stop the Administration Server.
2. Open the file StartWebLogic.sh in a text editor. The file resides in the /user_projects/domains//bin directory.
3. Add the following line to the file, replacing with the full path to the grc863 directory you created earlier (see step 5 of ―Preparing Additional Files‖ on page 2-7).

SAVE_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Xms512m -Xmx4096m -Xss512k -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Doracle.security.jps.auth.debug=true -Doracle.security.jps.auth.debug.verbose=true -Djava.security.debug=access,failure -Djava.security.auth.login.config="/grc/WEB-INF/ jaas.config" -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dweblogic.security.SSL.trustedCAKeystore="/wl server_10.3/server/lib/cacerts" ${JAVA_OPTIONS}"

You may use a maximum memory setting (-Xmx) larger than 4096m if your server has enough memory to support the larger value.
4. Start the Administration Server

Once I did the abve steps, I was able to login to GRC with the default username/password : admin/admin
