problems changing the admin user password with 0.9.3

Wed, 22 Mar 2006 16:18:08 -0800

I am starting the apache directory server with the default configuration:

 

        <prop key="java.naming.security.authentication">simple</prop>

        <prop key="java.naming.security.principal">uid=admin,ou=system</prop>

        <prop key="java.naming.security.credentials">secret</prop>

 

But then I would like to change the password for the admin user.

 

I log into the apache server with an LDAP browser and change the password to “newpassword”.

 

Then I shutdown the server and change the configuration:

        <prop key="java.naming.security.authentication">simple</prop>

        <prop key="java.naming.security.principal">uid=admin,ou=system</prop>

        <prop key="java.naming.security.credentials">newpassword</prop>

 

I get an error as the SimpleAuthenticator is failing.

If I use “secret” again, it works.

 

So how do I change the admin password, permanently?
