default username/password for Ambari?

m_zahiid — Mon, 08 Feb 2016 01:14:02 GMT

I also face the same issue. Try to use admin/admin and it’s not working. Try to use user/password specified during HDP Sandbox setting in Azure is also giving the same error.

I have tried to change the password using SSH but over there I am getting error message of permission denied with user name which I provided while configuring Azur portal. And not able to login using root username and password.

@Muhammad Ali

Please see the link that you shared http://hortonworks.com/blog/hortonworks-sandbox-with-hdp-2-3-is-now-available-on-microsoft-azure-gallery/

You have to follow the steps carefully and remember passwords. Can you try to follow the guide and recreate vm?

Make sure that you are using your username and password correctly that you defined in the above step

Once its done deployoing then

1. ssh into the VM and run the following command as the root user:ambari-admin-password-reset

2. You will be prompted to enter the password. Ambari server will restart.

3. Then run command

ambari-agent restart

4. You can then go to the http://<hostname/ipaddress>:8888 which displays the splash page and click on the Ambari url. Enter the user "admin" and put the password you set previouly in step 2. You should now be able to log in as an Ambari admin.

@Muhammad Ali

Where are you changing the password ? Did you see the screenshot that I attached?

You must sudo as root once you are in vm

It seems that I don't have root permision while changing password. I get error permision denied.

Hi @Muhammad Ali if you recently deployed sandbox hdp 2.3.2 on azure, there was an update done. Basically, to login as a read only user to use the views, you can login as user: azure password azure. It looks like the splash page on port 8888 page didn't get the update. I will work on fixing that. Basically, to get ambari admin access, you have to set ambari password as explained in the initial blade.

same issue here. I can login into vm but can't sudo to root.

Re: default username/password for Ambari?

zafar_khan2 — Tue, 09 Feb 2016 06:38:10 GMT

sorry, found the problem. Was not using proper way to sudo to root. Should be using [sudo su - root] instead of just using [sudo root] 🙂

@zafar khan These details are in the screenshot that I have attached

Username/Password: raj_ops/raj_ops worked for me

According to documentation https://hortonworks.com/tutorial/learning-the-ropes-of-the-hortonworks-sandbox/

maria_dev/maria_dev should also work

Username/Password => raj_ops/raj_ops worked for me

I am having this same problem. After updating both Sandbox and VirtualBox, no password works for the admin user, neither the default "admin" nor the value I changed it to some time ago. Does logging in as maria_dev or one of the other values carry the same privileges as admin? Can we access and execute all the scripts required in the tutorials?

If not, how do we reset the admin password to the default value "admin" when the sudo to root method doesn't work?

@Muhammad Ali Check if you have an oracle instance (full or express) running on the host machine. Oracle database service also tend to be installed at 8080 and takes over the port:
