ChangePassword Script (Scheduler Web Administration Tool)¶

The change_password_scheduler script updates the password of the Scheduler Web Administration Tool user. This script is located within the file <DENODO_HOME>/tools/webadmintool/bin.

change_password_scheduler [-i] -h <host> -p <port> -P <password> -n <new password> [-https]

-i: Optional. Activates interactive mode. When interactive mode active, all parameters that are not passed as arguments will be requested by prompt.

-h <host>: host name or IP address of Web Container.

-p <port>: port of Web Container.

-P <password>: password of this user account.

-n <new password>: the new password.

-https: option that allows to use HTTPS instead of HTTP.

You can encrypt both passwords with the command <DENODO_HOME>/bin/encrypt_password "<password>". Then, copy the output of this command and pass it as an argument of this parameter, with the prefix encrypted. For example, -P encrypted:Gr16MjvuXhRzPtPH/yTXHw==.

./change_password_scheduler.sh -h localhost -p 9090 -P "admin" -n "encrypted:wj8lN8TDVPzmFOCplpoUt7uCYVSVA01emJwR27MWPwHtuSek1Ds0FAo5GOFIoFXwpvq5s9mNtzLwnAq8T8RAReA4FfG4pUwYs6ZxrWYGNtoZTGxyvIGXtlDWTZ6Rs6J51DWMfD63ZkoBzEbtF63AMQ=="

This command updates the password of the Scheduler Web Administration Tool) to new_admin_password (in this example, we pass this new password encrypted).
