I am pretty new to InfluxDB. I am currently trying to change the password 
of my admin user and am having some trouble.

I am trying to do this via curl and am getting conflicting information when 
querying the Influx API.

$ curl -G 'http://localhost:8087/query' --data-urlencode "q=SHOW USERS"

                                                 
{"results":[{"series":[{"columns":["user","admin"]}]}]}

$ curl -G 'http://localhost:8087/query' --data-urlencode "q=SET PASSWORD 
FOR admin = 'newpassword'"

                                                 {"results":[{"error":"user 
not found"}]}



I can see that the admin user officially exists, but when I try to change 
the password using the command found on This Page 
<https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v0.9/administration/authentication_and_authorization/#re-set-a-user-s-password>,
 
I get told the user wasn't found. What am I doing wrong?
