Resetting the supAdmin Password

You can manually reset the current platform administration password.

1. Open the Unwired Server default.xml file, located in <UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>\UnwiredPlatform\Servers\UnwiredServer\Repository\CSI\conf and modify this line:

   <options encrypted="false" name="password" 
   value="{TXT:}s3pAdmin" />

   In this example, you are setting the new password to s3pAdmin. You can replace this password with any password you choose. Do not remove the {TXT:} prefix to the password.

   Note: In this example, password encryption is set to false. Disregard this value; you will configure encryption correctly in step 6.
2. Save the file.
3. Restart Unwired Server and Sybase Control Center.
4. Log in to Sybase Control Center using supAdmin as the new password.
5. When login succeeds, Sybase Control Center opens the management view on the local Unwired Server.
6. In Sybase Control Center, expand the Security node:
   1. Click admin.
   2. Click Authentication and select PreConfiguredUserLoginModule for the supAdmin user.
   3. Click Properties, and:
      • Enter the new password. By resupplying the password here, the file is overwritten using the correct syntax.
      • Add a Clear Password property, and set its value to false. This property encrypts the password. Conversely, to store the password in clear text, set this value to true.
   4. Click Save.
   5. When you see the warning message, click OK, then click the General tab.
   6. Click Apply.
      You see another warning.
   7. Click OK.
      Configuration files are rewritten using the values you entered. When the process completes, you see a Successfully saved message.
7. Login again to Sybase Control Center using the supAdmin login and the new password (in this example, s3pAdmin).
8. Go to the ...\UnwiredServer\Repository\CSI folder and verify default.xml to verify that encryption is configured correctly, and that the password is no longer recorded in clear text.
