How do I really change the install/install user and password? the method in the documentation doesn’t appear to work for me:

Background
I just installed 7.3 with tomcat. I can login with the technical user and using the username “install” and password “install” was able to login. But now I need to change this user/password so this doesn’t remain open to the public.

I followed the instructions (as far as I know) from this page:
http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/bonitabpm/7.3?page=first-steps-after-setup

I modified both platform-tenant-config.properties and bonita-tenant-community-custom.properties in my “current” folder. I then run “sudo ./setup.sh push” and don’t get any errors. I restart Bonita. Everything apperas to work as expected BUT then I go to the portal and am still able to login with install/install instead of my new password.

What am I missing?

thanks

Thanks Sean. Unfortunately that didn’t work for me - BUT it lead me to a process that did work: I dropped the Bonita database, modified the 2 files mentioned in the link you sent me (note - I modified the files in the INIT and not the CURRENT folder) and then run “sudo ./setup.sh init” and that did create the user “install” with the password I selected.

Maybe not the correct way to change the password (after all I simply created the user with the new password instead of modifying it) but anyway that works good enough for me for now.

thanks again for the help!

Good stuff, I’ll take a note of that for others.

Now - if you can mark my answer as the correct one it will show issue as resolved and working…
