default username/password for Ambari?

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.

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] 🙂

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.

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?
