Hi
I have openfire 4.1.0 - what is a official instructions to reset admin password ?
Many many people give different answers …
I try … update via mysql:
"UPDATE ofUser SET encryptedPassword=‘my new password’ WHERE username=‘user@domena.pl’
i try change config xml.
I canot find a solutions with docu
As far as I know ‘encryptedPassword’ must be cleared and ‘plainPassword’ must be set to new password. And after first successfull login with new password you just set up secure password in admin web-interface.
Hi
Sorry but this solutions does not work
BTW
why a simple solution to the problem is raised to makes life difficult…
Maby solutions how to add aother user / admin ? I try insert in mysql seccond aaccound and not working and cannot log via web-interface
I found out that there are several steps to reset password.
-
Stop the OPENFIRE
-
In openfire.xml add bold marked lines
<!-- root element, all properties must be under this element -->
<jive>
<admin>
<authorizedUsernames>admin</authorizedUsernames>
</admin>
<adminConsole>
<!-- Disable either port by setting the value to -1 -->
<port>9090</port>
<securePort>9091</securePort>
</adminConsole>
- Execute command
UPDATE ofUser
SET plainPassword
= ‘newPassword’ , encryptedPassword
=NULL WHERE ofUser
.username
= ‘admin’;
newPassword - place your new password here
admin - name of admin user
- Start OPENFIRE
And the last way: execute command INSERT INTO OFPROPERTY VALUES('admin.authorizedJIDs','admin@server_name,one_more_admin@server_name ')
.
I hope this way helps.
Hello
Thenx but this solutions open a new installer / new all configurations… ask me mysql connections user/ password etc…
If it starts new installation then you must check line in openfire.xml
**<setup>true</setup>**
</jive>
If config file openfire.xml misses that string then web-interface starts in new installation mode. Add this parameter and you get normal web page.
