Hi Wazuh Team

I have problems with wazuh-dashboard, after changing the passwords with "wazuh-passwords-tool.sh" and following all the steps in for the cluster environment in https://documentation.wazuh.com/4.10/user-manual/user-administration/password-management.html , i can't see the login page.

Wazuh version: 4.10.1

i have applied the following command without success:

echo <KIBANASERVER_PASSWORD> | /usr/share/wazuh-dashboard/bin/opensearch-dashboards-keystore --allow-root add -f --stdin opensearch.password

all the others passwords (admin, wazuh, wazuh-wui) are ok and my server (3 nodes) is in green status

Hi Isaac The password change steps involve updating several passwords and restarting the Wazuh dashboard service afterward. Ensure the new passwords are updated in the configuration file /usr/share/wazuh-dashboard/data/wazuh/config/wazuh.yml with the new wazuh-wui password.

hosts:
- default:
url: https://127.0.0.1
port: 55000
username: wazuh-wui
password: "<WAZUH_WUI_PASSWORD>"
run_as: false

Make sure you have followed each step carefully of changing the password of the distributed environment https://documentation.wazuh.com/4.10/user-manual/user-administration/password-management.html#changing-the-passwords-in-a-distributed-environment

Also, please share the output of :

echo <KIBANASERVER_PASSWORD> | /usr/share/wazuh-dashboard/bin/opensearch-dashboards-keystore --allow-root add -f --stdin opensearch.password

Additionally, please share the dashboard: journalctl -u wazuh-dashboard | grep -i -E "error|warn"

Hi Stuti

Thank you for the information. The problem was solved changing the password of "kibanaserver" user and update again with the command. 

echo <KIBANASERVER_PASSWORD> | /usr/share/wazuh-dashboard/bin/opensearch-dashboards-keystore --allow-root add -f --stdin opensearch.password

and there was neccesary waith until the wazuh-indexer API respond.

regards
