Getting the following error while trying to set the new password:
Current password must be provided and be valid when setting a new password.
Since it asks for old password too, I am providing the Bluemix password as the old password. Unable to find a was to set the password in the first place.
You can find the current password in the service credentials section in Bluemix. E.g.

I freshly installed Grafana and I cannot login at http://localhost:3000/login
All documentation shows that the default user/password should be admin/admin but I'm locked out.
If I go to check into the file C:\Program Files\GrafanaLabs\grafana\defaults.ini the values are set to:
[security]
# disable creation of admin user on first start of grafana
disable_initial_admin_creation = false
# default admin user, created on startup
admin_user = admin
# default admin password, can be changed before first start of grafana, or in profile settings
admin_password = admin
# used for signing
secret_key = SW2YcwTIb9zpOOhoPsMm
# current key provider used for envelope encryption, default to static value specified by secret_key
encryption_provider = secretKey
If I try to retrieve the password through the e-mail I receive no e-mail.
What am I doing wrong?
The problem come from the grafana.db file. This is where your password is stored.
In your local machine, install the sqlite3 package
sudo apt-get install sqlite3
Login into your sql database
sudo sqlite3 /var/lib/grafana/grafana.db
Reset the admin password using SQL update (the new password will be admin)
sqlite> update user set password = '59acf18b94d7eb0694c61e60ce44c110c7a683ac6a8f09580d626f90f4a242000746579358d77dd9e570e83fa24faa88a8a6', salt = 'F3FAxVm33R' where login = 'admin';
sqlite> .exit
Now, you could log in your Grafana web interface using username: admin and password: admin
Why is the login with admin:admin despite the configuration not working?
One possibility here is that you had Grafana installed previously (and when using it with the admin account already had to change the default password set in the config). In that case, you did not freshly install Grafana but instead upgraded it. That preserves the database including users and passwords, therefore you will have to use the password you set for that account.
Why are you not getting a reset password email?
I can think of two possibilities here: One is that Email is not configured in the Grafana config file and therefore no emails can be sent. The second one is that you did not set the email address for the account in question (afaik defaults to "admin#localhost") and therefore you don't get any emails. Of course it is possible that both is the case.
How can you solve this?
By either resetting the admin password (that will allow you to keep your existing data) or by removing Grafana and all files completely and making a fresh install.
I have database hosted on MLab and I am trying to connect it with Compass. I am using host and port given in connection string but it is showing error, here is my screenshot:
What am I doing wrong?
Had same problem manage to solve it like this:
A. Go to your db in mlab and in the tab choose "users"
B. Create a new user ex: username: admin password: 123456
C: Go to compass and fill it this way
Example of your connection path
ds012345.mlab.com:56789/myDBname
hostname
ds012345.mlab.com
port
56789
authentication: username /password
admin // or the name of the user you created in step A
123456 // or password for the user you created in step A
authentication database
myDBname // the name of your database in mlab
I just had the same problem.
I fixed it by updating my version of MongoDB Compass. No problems encountered with version 1.15.4.
Also, Authentication Database should not have the value "admin" but the name of the DB to connect you.
To make your connection easier, don't hesitate to copy your entire connection string into the clipboard. Compass detects it and proposes to automatically fill in the connection form.
The problem that I had was the Authentication Database Compass filled in automatically wasn't correct for my setup. By default, this was pointing to admin but it needs to point to the database that the user is associated with.
Summed up: The database of admin didn't exist.
Just to rule it out, double check what database you're pointing to. It should be in the name, like ds739176/database_name where database_name is, you guessed it, the name of your database.
Hope this helps.
The required credentials are not your login credentials to MLab,
instead these are database user credentials.
How to get them:
click on your DB on MLab.
go to users tab and create new user.
use the created users credentials to access db.
set authenticationdatabase to be your database.
I had the same problem. MongoDB url was working in code but Authentication failed was showing in MongoDB Compass.
When I checked, my mongodb password was iam%40me1234.
Here I'm using %40 HTML hex code in the password for # character.
So, If we will use the original character in the password like iam#me1234 in MongoDB Compass then it will work great.
Here is a full list of Hex codes
What I did:
Click on "Fill in connection fields individually" option in Compass.
Enter the hostname (Example ds051234.mlab.com)
Enter PORT (Example 12345)
Select Username/password in the Authentication option.
Enter username and password (Create a new user in mlab.com for your database)
Authentication Database (Just enter the "database name" in this field. Example: heroku_8967jgy5)
I hope this will help you.
I am trying to move my data in MongoDB to Redshift using AWS Glue. To do this, I am trying to add a connection to MongoDB. My MongoDB setup does not have credentials configured. But the Username and Password fields in the Add Connection page are mandatory. Test Connection fails on giving dummy values as they will be considered during the authentication process. Would appreciate any help in this regard.
To be upfront I haven't tried this myself, but to remove the requirement for Username and Password is easy.
Basically in the Migration Setup Wizard in the "Authentication mode" drop-down box select "none". Default value is "password, where the username and password is mandatory.
Hope that assist.
I am working on an open source application that has PostgreSQL as its default DBMS. Now when I install it on my system, its configuration is so that PostgreSQL also gets installed with it.
My problem is with getting access to the installed PostgreSQL database. The database that gets created during installation is named iviewdb.
I read at many forums that the default superuser is postgres, but when I try to get access to the database using this username through a command prompt, it prompts me for password that I don't have.
I wanted to know from where in the PostgreSQL installation directory
the default username and password with the port number to access the database is stored. I have even tried changing the pg_hba.conf file, but that creates a problem with the application and it won't start then.
How can I find the password for this database? I am working in a Windows environment.
The password isn't stored in an easily recoverable manner, and if you change the password, the application may not be able to access the database properly. You may find the password in the application settings or documentation, though.
If you decide to risk changing the postgres user's password, stop the application and PostgreSQL service, and then edit pg_hba.conf. Add (or change if it already exists) a line (if it doesn't exist, add it before any other "host...." lines):
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
And restart the PostgreSQL service. That should give you access from localhost, where you could change the postgres user's password, or add yourself another user with the permissions you want. Then set the pg_hba.conf file back the way it was and restart.
I've encountered this similar problem, and I noticed that the default being set for PostgreSQL upon installation in my case is as follows:
username = postgres
password = ' '
How can I reset the ATG Dynamo Admin password?
I need steps to reset/change the password, from the default of admin/admin.
According to Oracle's documentation, you can add Admin.Reset to your ear file which when deployed, will reset the admin password to the admin account.
ATG Documentation
Delete entry for "admin" from DAS_ACCOUNT table and restart the server. Then open dyn admin with admin/admin. It will take you to passward reset page.
You can do this ACC. In ACC click on People and Organizations->Control center users and select the name whose password you want to change.
It is answered in This forum. Basically, there are different ways to reset password, you can do it either by firing some queries or by methods mentioned here.
I had similar issue. In WebLogic app server I was getting denied ATG Dyn Admin of admin/admin. I took a shot in the dark and tried my WebLogic admin console login, and this time it worked, but Dyn Admin tried to take me to a password reset page. At that time I got the error:
Make sure that you have the bin directory for your JDK in your PATH variable before starting Dynamo and that you have enough swap space.
I created below props file in ATG_HOME/localconfig, and added the one liner below:
/atg/dynamo/servlet/pagecompile/ExtendedJhtmlPageProcessor
javaCompilerClassName=atg.servlet.pagecompile.SunJavaSourceCompiler
This solved my problem. I was able to load password change JHTML fine. Not sure yet why ATG Dyn Admin was redirecting me to password change page, and why it accepted my WebLogic console credentials. I wonder if it's a WebLogic specific thing.
you can change your password through /dyn/admin console there is a link password management from where you can reset the default password from admin/admin
Open your SQL developer in Core schema there is table name DAS_ACCOUNT where account name and password has been set so for password there is a long key
i have a key with me
2b7b1f41d6ddb810d48096c266d3bd092d7e5da5
place it in there now your
username:admin
Password:admin123
