Expert Contributor

Hi,

I've launched HDP 2.5 on an AWS instance, for some reason i cannot login to admin. I wanted to reset the admin ambari password, i tried "ambari-admin-password-reset" but looks like it is for sandbox and it cannot found on the server.

Please advise how can I reset the password.

Thanks,

SJ

Looks like you have missed few characters in the admin password. Can you please share the output of the following query?

Select user_name, user_password from ambari.users where user_name='admin';

.

Resulted password should be exactly
