This should have gone to the users mailing list - re-adding that.
Not at all familiar with the windows installer, so all of this is in guesswork land for me: I take it you tried the default values (admin/geoserver)? The password is stored, and can be reset, if you have access to the directory where the data store is located (probably c:/program files/geoserver/data). Look in security/usergroup/default/users.xml for: <user enabled="true" name="admin" password="digest1:... "/> Change the password part to password="plain:PASSWORD", replacing PASSWORD with some temporary value if you like. Then log in as admin and change the password. Double check it got modified in the users.xml file. If there is no admin entry, just make one that looks like: <user enabled="true" name="admin" password="plain:PASSWORD"/> And follow as above Brad From: Schaub, Corby <corby.sch...@aecom.com> Sent: Friday, 12 July 2019 2:25 AM To: Brad Hards <br...@frogmouth.net> Subject: RE: [Geoserver-users] CC Schaub Login error HI Brad, Yeah my bad. Forget Tableau all together for the moment. Installation appeared to work, because access to http://localhost:8080/geoserver/web/ is working great. However, when I attempt to Login to GeoServer, I get an Invalid username/password combination. I am using the username/password combination I entered during the GeoServer 2.15.2 Windows Installer. I do not see any place to update username or password. Hopefully this was more specific.

Is this something on the Tableau side? Or are you trying to log into the web UI (e.g. like at <https://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/gettingstarted/web-admin-quicksta rt/index.html#logging-in> https://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/gettingstarted/web-admin-quickstar t/index.html#logging-in) but something other than access to the admin console happens? If so, what do you see instead? Are you logging in as admin? Are you just using the default provider (or did you make authentication changes, as shown at <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.geoserver.org_sta ble_en_user_security_webadmin_auth.html&d=DwMFAg&c=TQzoP61-bYDBLzNd0XmHrw&r= nWNgooa1hxlBi_niHlmBkenuQcdmUah0mAB0jphXBQo&m=s61srKpCXGQxVgcn1iZRM0KzEauX6C _fbi6Y1tuCXf4&s=Gk3rcijybi_g_8_mAYBMgXsjjfN0F64yTEmSgyCf4Xo&e=> https://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/security/webadmin/auth.html)?

The installation of 2.15.1 appears to be working. However, my username and password entered while installing (no I didn't use default), doesn't seem to be working. Yes, I have entered correct username and password (I took a screenshot so I would remember). Anyway, I don't know why this is happening, and I also don't see how I can correct the problem. Any advice or help would be appreciated.
