I have this strange problem where changing the admin password does not seem to have any effect.
I've done exactly what Justin explained below and in fact with curl I get a login page when using the old admin password (the default "admin") and I get the landing page when using the new one. But... and this is the strange thing... when I try to access /system/console/bundles it only accepts the old password! Even after restarting glassfish. Any ideas?
