Furthermore you will notice that the user iSpiderColumbus in Spider LCM does not exist anymore

Cause

Since Spider LCM 6.1 the iSpiderColumbus user is not needed as a user anymore, therefore it gets deleted by the setup.

Resolution

Configure the user and password that should be used in the following settings file of the iSpiderColumbus interface:
<SpiderInstallDirectory>\CoreServer_00\iSpiderColumbus\_Settings\appSettings.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<appSettings>
    <add key="User" value="iSpiderColumbus" />
    <add key="Password" value="bra!nware" />
    <add key="SnapshotIsolationLevelEnabled" value="true" />
    <add key="SpiderAssetApplicationGuid" value="38F96E97-C314-44B8-B137-C966D35A3BA0" />
</appSettings>
