credentials

Follow the instructions below to change the default admin passwordcredentials

  1. Change the

    password in the API-M Management Console (https://localhost:9443/carbon).

    After changing the credentials, change the same user credentials in the following files.

    • The The <UserName> and <Password> values in <APIM_HOME>/repository/conf/user-mgt.xml file.

      Code Block
      languagexml
      <UserManager>
         <Realm>
            <Configuration>
                ...
                <AdminUser>
                   <UserName>admin</UserName>                  
                   <Password>admin</Password>
                </AdminUser>
            ...
         </Realm>
      </UserManager>
      Note

      Note that the password in the user-mgt.xml file is written to the primary user store when the server starts for the first time. Thereafter, the password will be validated from the primary user store and not from the user-mgt.xml file. Therefore, if you need to change the admin password stored in the user store, you cannot simply change the value in the user-mgt.xml file. To change the super admin password, you must use the Change Password option from the management console.

      To change the password from Management Console (https://localhost:9443/carbon), follow the steps in Changing a Password corresponding to API Manager.

    • The  <APIM_HOME>/repository/conf/jndi.properties file.

      Code Block
      connectionfactory.TopicConnectionFactory = amqp://admin:admin@clientid/carbon?brokerlist='tcp://localhost:5672'
      connectionfactory.QueueConnectionFactory = amqp://admin:admin@clientID/test?brokerlist='tcp://localhost:5672'
