How can I set the password of the node CMS user?

1 First time

A password for the CMS user “node” will be generated automatically when the CMS Tomcat is starting the first time. The password will be output to the file /Node/tomcat/logs/gentics.log.

Example:


[localhost-startStop-1] INFO  com.gentics.contentnode.init.GenerateNodeUserPassword - A new password has been generated for the user "node": "2jk2nvsk4b34duojeis8d8v21k"

2 Password reset

You can set the password to a randomly generated one by executing the following shell command:


sudo -u node /Node/.node/sh.php do=1051 CONFIGFILE=/Node/etc/node.conf
