2. This sample is based on the XML configuration file called rss­-config.xml file which has two passwords called “rssadmin” and “root”.
3. Edit cipher configurations. The cipher related configurations are located in the following location in product: wso2­product/repository/conf/security/. The two configuration files that need to be edited are cipher­textcipher­-text.properties and cipher­toolcipher-­tool.properties.

4. Add the following lines to the cipher­toolcipher­-tool.properties file.

   Code Block
   #rss­config.xml xpaths SYSTEMRSSConfiguration.RSSDEFAULT.WSO2RSS1.PASSWORDPassword=rss-config.xml//RSSConfiguration/Environments/Environment[Name='DEFAULT']/RSSInstances/RSSInstance[Name='WSO2RSS1']/DataSourceConfiguration/Definition/Password,falsetrue

   Mention the file name and the XPath of the XML element which describes the password. Also encrypt the password for each password separately by comma separated false (,false).

5. Add the following lines to the cipher­textcipher­-text.properties file.
   

   Code Block
   #rss­config.xml passwords SYSTEMRSSConfiguration.RSSDEFAULT.WSO2RSS1.PASSWORDPassword=[root]

   Info
   You can see the default password for the Carbon product is “wso2carbon”.

6. Apply the real password and encrypt it. To do this, open a terminal and navigate to your product's bin folder and enter the following command:
   

   Code Block
   sh ciphertool.sh ­Dconfigure SYSTEM.RSS.WSO2RSS1.PASSWORD=root

    

   Info
   SYSTEM.RSS.WSO2RSS1.PASSWORD is the key for the cipher files.

   -­Dconfigure

7. Enter the default password which is “wso2carbon” (,wso2carbon). 

8. You can now see encrypted passwords in the

   cipher­text

   cipher-­text.properies file.
