reset admin password - moloch_viewer

[itpn...@gmail.com]

Hello

I forgot my password for the admin user in _moloch (viewer).

1) How do I change the administrator password from the console?
2) I have received permissions for admin Users tab, how to restore?

Looks like there is something wrong with your ES cluster.  Does going to localhost:9200/_plugin/head show green?

plugin is yellow, restart ES helped. 

password changed, the script ran successfully. 

Thanks Andy for your reply,
