Overview
If you are unable to log in to the web-based Urchin Administrative GUI as the admin user due to the password being lost or corrupted, do not despair! You can still reset the password as long as you can gain some type of command line access to the system running Urchin with the privileges of the user that Urchin runs as.
Procedure
On UNIX-type systems:
- Invoke a shell as the user that Urchin runs as, and change
directory to
the Urchin distribution. Then type type the following (line breaks
added for
readability):
cd util ./uconf-driver action=set_parameter table=user \ name="(admin)" ct_password=urchin
On a Windows system
-
Start up a Command Prompt window and type the following (line breaks
added for
readability):
cd \Program Files\Urchin\util uconf-driver action=set_parameter table=user \ name="(admin)" ct_password=urchinIn both examples, this sets the admin password to be "urchin".
