How to change the admin username and password in SJSAS8.1 which comes with SJSE8 ?
running SJSE8 on XP
changing it in the properties window does not work..
Are there two instances? the admin console (instance) and the app server instance?
Are the accounts (username/password) different? can they be different?
Thanks
Hello.
At first You need to start Application Server.
Then enter to AS administration console. By default AS has admin/adminadmin
username/password pair.
In administration console click on Application Server node. and then select Administrator Password tab. Change password here.
After that provide the same values in Java Studio because it should know adminname and password for deployment ops...
Hope this helps.

Just follow the procedure that Maks described in the post above, it should work.

When an instance of AS is started it listens of several ports simultaneously:
- *:8080 - it's the default HTTP listener, the deployed web apps will be accessible here
- *:8081 - it's the default HTTPS listener
- localhost:4848 - it's the port for the admin console and is accessible only from localhost

Nope, it's the same account. JSE acts as a client, thus when you enter username/password in the IDE you basically tell the IDE which credentials to use when connecting to the server.
I am running SJSAS 8.2 b06-fcs on XP SP2
logging into the admin console and clicking on the Application Server link I am taken to the: General Information ( Stop Instance | View Log Files | Rotate Log File | JNDI Browsing | Record Transactions) page
The tabs on this page are: General | JVM Settings | Logging | Monitor | Advanced
There is no tab: Administrator Password
The Banner contains tabs: Home | Version | Upgrade | Registration | Logout | Help
what did i miss?
Thanks...
The Help file for 8.2 says the following. It worked for me :-)
To change the admin password using the Admin Console, follow these steps.
In the Admin Console tree component, expand the Configuration node.
Expand the Security node.
Expand the Realms node.
Select the admin-realm node.
Click the Manage Users button from the Edit Realm page.
Select the user named admin.
Enter the new password and confirm the password.
Click Save to save or click Close to close without saving.
