I've got an alfresco enterprise 6.0 installation running within a docker/openshift environment. I'm trying to change the default admin password to something other than the default. I've followed the instructions here to update the password: Admin password in default authentication | Alfresco Documentation
I also set the new password hash in my global properties file, but I think are only used at the startup of a new instance:
alfresco_user_store.adminusername=secret
alfresco_user_store.adminpassword=secret
When I query my database to see the password hash using the below query I see the new hash that I expect with my new password:
SELECT anp1.node_id,
anp1.qname_id,
anp1.string_value
FROM alf_node_properties anp1
INNER JOIN alf_qname aq1 ON aq1.id = anp1.qname_id
INNER JOIN alf_node_properties anp2 ON anp2.node_id = anp1.node_id
INNER JOIN alf_qname aq2 ON aq2.id = anp2.qname_id
WHERE aq1.local_name = 'password'
AND aq2.local_name = 'username'
AND anp2.string_value = 'admin';
But my problem is that this new password never seems to take effect. I've restarted alfresco content services several times. Each time I try to connect using the CMIS workbench it requires using the old, default user and password.
If I start up a fresh instance of alfresco locally in a docker container the password updates and seems to work fine. But the instance that I'm having trouble with I would like to avoid wiping out the schema and starting fresh, if at all possible.
Thanks for any tips or suggestions!
