pagrawal-2 · ‎Nov 08, 2017

Hi,

I do have TWx 8.

I am logging with Administrator User and I set its password as admin.

I wa sable to login.

But suddenly somehow it is not allowing me.

I am getting this in logs:

Hi Prashant,

Did you import any entities recently. If you imported an entity package that included the Administrator user entity, the password will be overwritten.

pagrawal-2 · ‎Nov 08, 2017

hey,

yeah I did that.

I got some project related entities from my friend.

And I imported them.

What the password will be then???

smanley · ‎Nov 08, 2017

If the person who sent you the password customized the Administrator user, only they can give you the current password. There is one more possible way to modify the password. If you have an application key with Administrator privileges, then you can update the password through the REST API. Are there any known Admin Application Keys?

pagrawal-2 · ‎Nov 08, 2017

No I dont have any appkey as of now.

Because I just set it up for starting the development.

I will ask my friend.

And Saeed Thanks for helping me out.

Hey Can I have your mailid if any case I will need for urgency.(If it is ok then only).

Well but Thanks alot.

posipova · ‎Nov 08, 2017

was it a postgresql database? if so, you may try changing the password within the database.

Thank you, you solved my problem.
