I don't know if it's on the wiki ... as it is not up to date, that's a long time since I've been there ... so if you want to add an entry there, don't hesitate ;-)
I just found that procedure alone, playing with export / import.
I can assure you that it is great to release configurations, and new versions of customized Magnolia !

That's exactly the process I was hoping to eventually implement. Is that on the Wiki? Something like what you described would be ideal for releasing configurations outside of Magnolia as well.

Actually, you must delete (or keep it in an other place, in the case it
fails) the /repositories because it's the bootstrapped datas which are in 
there. And the goal of the procedure I described is to make Magnolia 
re-bootstrap the public instance to take all the new datas.
It's the way I currently update the server version of my modified Magnolia : 
backup the datas (all the datas, of all the repositories) in xml files, then 
removing the /repositories dir, importing back the xml in the 
WEB-INF/bootstrap/common/ and restarting the public instance. It will bootstrap 
and re-integrate all the datas (and by the way, you got a backup with your xml 
files, which are full compatible with all the Persistence Manager you'll choose 
for the future).

Hope that helped,
    Anthony

Wow, that's pretty complicated. I hope there's an easier way! This might be a good lead for backing up and restoring users, however. I really would like to do this without manually deleting repositories though.

What's the problem exactly ?
If it's changing the superuser password, you "just" have to change it while you're logged in superuser in the Author instance, then,

    * go to Tools > Development tools
    * select the "users" repository
    * "/" as "parent path"
    * whatever you like as root dir (in order to find it later)
    * Click on "backupChildren"
    * Go on the server, get the users.superuser.xml file
    * Backup all your datas in the Public instance with that method
      (creating xml files)
    * Stop the public instance
    * Replace the users.superuser.xml of the backed up xml files with
      the one from Author
    * remove the "repositories" directory and perhaps the datas if your
      persistence manager is a DB
* Re-bootstrap the public instance, based on the xml files you backed up

And finally you're done !
... I think there is a simplier way anyway ... :-/

I see that this has been covered, but I'm having no luck changing the password or deactivating the superuser and securitymanager users in either the Author or Public Instance in 3.0. I had no problems in 2.1.5, so it looks like something's changed. Is this on the Wiki? 1. I'm logged in as a new user assigned the superuser role (I tried as a security manager as well) 2. /config/server/admin set to true in both Author and Public 3. subscriber nodes are set to false Thanks in advance,

Ben
