BI Server CE 7: Reset Admin Password

[Jaurès FOUTE]

Hi everyone,

Is there a way to reset Admin password after forget it?

I install Bi Server CE 7, And PostgreSQL as repository BA

I believe that there's a way to enable the superuser authentication type (instead of jackrabbit), but you'll likely need to contact Pentaho Support, unless someone else knows of the specific details.

Aside from that, you could switch the authentication type to "memory".  This method will allow you to export all of your content, and then delete & re-create the jackrabbit database, before importing the content again and changing authentication back to "jackrabbit".  This method is a bit more work, but it will reset all of the accounts back to the default (e.g. admin, suzy, etc.).

You may also consider moving to LDAP after this, as it will allow you to take care of user management in a single environment, instead of dealing with them across development, test, and production BA servers.

Hope that helps!
