Use Password1* the first time,  then login and change it to what you want in profile… seems the rake command doesn’t like all the special characters.

Or just use SSH to log onto the site in command line, then create a new account with Greenlight Admin permissions:

cd /root/greenlight

sudo docker exec greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake user:create["MYADMINID","MYEMAIL@example.com","MYPASSWORD","admin"]

For some reason, when I ran the docker command, rake accepted my special
characters. Don’t know why. I tend to use PuTTY to SSH into my server for
command line work. But if that doesn’t work, obviously using Greenlight and
knowing the initial password is a good workaround.

Thanks. I used the command line in PuTTY for SSH on my server. An attempt to enter Password1 * was unsuccessful. Maybe it happened after the action in PuTTy? Previously, such problems did not arise. I put BBB more than 20 times on different servers.

I am sincerely grateful for your help. I found this way to solve the problem:
cd ~/greenlight
1. Creating an Administrator Account
docker exec greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake admin:create
2. result :
Email: ad...@example.com
Password: Administrator1!
3. Log in with this data and change the password.
4. After resetting the password, go in and change the Email and other settings.
ps. You may have had to try this option 
cd ~/greenlight
docker exec greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake admin:create["name","email","password","admin"]
but I don't know if it would work

After using bbb-install this command works with Password1*  to create initial  admin account.  but will fail if I use the ! in the password or don’t meet the new password restrictions.

 

docker exec greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake user:create["Stephen Dame","sd...@xxxxx.com","Password1*","admin"]

 

Also if I use this method,  this account never shows in the organization user list, but works.

 

Looks like different approach then using docker exec greenlight-v2 bundle exec rake admin:create["name","email","password","admin"]

 

Regards,

Stephen

 I have the first option through the creation of admin: create worked I received

Other methods did not work.
