Bugs: RANGER-1005
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1005
Repository: ranger
Description
-------
**Problem Statement:** If Ranger admin password has been changed from UI and
Ranger admin default password change request is made via 'db_setup.py
-changepassword' command then password change request should not fail with
failure error message rather it should skip the password change request and
display appropriate message.
**Proposed Solution:** ChangePasswordUtil.java can accept one optional
parameter '-default' for default password change request. if '-default' switch
is enabled then script shall check the provided old/default password with
existing password in db; if it matches then it will process the password change
request else it will skip the password change request and return the status
code 2 and will not throw failure message.
This shall require some modification in db_setup.py where it has to call java
utility with -default switch; receive the status code and if status code is 2
then it will display appropriate skip password change request message.
Please note that changepasswordutil.py doesn't required any changes as it is
not being called from any other script and '-default' switch/parameter is
optional in ChangePasswordUtil.java

Testing
-------
**Steps Performed(with patch):**
1. Installed ranger-admin from Build having changed of proposed patch.
2. Changed current directory to ranger-admin installation directory.
3. Started ranger-admin and was able to access ranger-admin home page/login
page by using default password 'admin'
4. Logged out from Ranger-admin UI.
5. Run below given command to change 'admin' user password from 'admin' to
'admin123'
python db_setup.py -changepassword admin admin admin123.
6. Password change request completed successfully with following message :
'Ranger admin default password change request processed successfully..'
7. On the login page of ranger-admin entered username 'admin' and password
'admin123'; clicked on 'Sign In' button to login page.
**Expected Behavior:**
'admin' user should get authenticated successfully and ranger-admin dashboard
page for 'admin' user should appear.
**Actual Behavior:**
'admin' user was authenticated successfully and after authentication page was
redirected to ranger-admin dashboard page.
Deleted version='DEFAULT_ADMIN_UPDATE' entry from x_db_version_h table so that
db_setup.py script didn't know whether default password has been changed or
not. Run below given command to change 'admin' user default password from
'admin' to 'admin12345'
python db_setup.py -changepassword admin admin admin12345
**Expected Behavior:**
Script should skip the change password request as password has been changed
once. Appropriate message should appear if password has already been changed.
**Actual Behavior:**
Password change request finished with following message : 'Ranger admin default
password change request process skipped!'
