You don't have to upgrade Artifactory in order to reset the admin password,
but we strongly recommend that you do anyway :)
First off, you need to get hold of a security configuration file:
- If your instance of Artifactory is configured to perform backups (true
by default and if not, you may perform a data dump of Artifactory using the
"artadmin dump" command which only requires access to the server's
file-system - see:
http://wiki.jfrog.org/confluence/display/RTF20/The+artadmin+Command+Line+Tool),
you can find the "security.xml" file at the top backup directory.
Make a copy of this file, open up the file with a text editor, change the
admin's "password" field to <password>5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99</
password> (which is 'password' in hash) and keep it aside.
- Otherwise, If you do not mind losing all your security settings, you
may use the security.xml that's attached to this message.
To reset the password in conjunction with an upgrade:
1. Follow the steps described in the standard upgrade guide (
http://wiki.jfrog.org/confluence/display/RTF/Upgrading+Artifactory).
2. After a successful upgrade, take the modified\attached security
configuration file, place it in $ARTIFACTORY_HOME/etc, rename it to *
security.import.xml* and restart Artifactory.
To reset the password without performing and upgrade, simply take the
modified\attached security configuration file, place it in
$ARTIFACTORY_HOME/etc, make sure it is named *security.xml* and restart
Artifactory.
