Method 1, reset the password to a new value
Stop the CFMX service
Open the file cf_install\lib\password.properties
Set new values for rdspassword and password
Set encrypted to false
Restart CFMX
Method 2: Disable the password altogether
Stop the CFMX service
Open the file cf_install\lib\neo-security.xml
Find <var name='admin.security.enabled'> <boolean value='true'/> </var>
Set value=false
Restart CFMX
Method 3: via the registry
Run the registry editor (regedit.exe), and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion\Server
Then, double-click on the UseAdminPassword value, and set it to "0". The
next time you open the CF Administrator, you won't need a
password, and you can then change and enable the password from within CF
Administrator.
Warmest Regards,
