Change/add password to repository database

[#1]

Hi,

Just wondering if I could change the password for the repository databse?

For example I installed the repository databse without password and I would like to add password to it.

Any suggestion?

Thanks,

G

Hi Siva,

make sure you're looking into C:\ProgramData\ and not C:\Program Files\

Hi Bjorn

I do not have C:\ProgramData\ Qlik Sense was installed in C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense

We have installed Qlik Sense on Windows Server 2012 R2

Hi Siva,

ProgramData is a hidden folder and unless moved located on the C:\ drive.

Try the following in a Command Prompt:

CD %ProgramData%

That should get you into the folder, regardless of being hidden or moved (%ProgramData% is the environmental variable for the folder and is always pointing to the right location).

Hi, I have a Issue...

I don't have the Qlik Sense Repository Database service in my services list.

What can I do?

Tiny fix: that should be “from trust to md5”, not “from md5 to trust”.

Hi Virgilio

I meet the same problem as you faced here : did you solve it ? how ?

thanks !!

Thanks Björn! Works perfectly.

Huge help, thanks so much for the instructions.

The only thing that was unclear was step 10, specifically the instruction to "Go to" the folder.  I finally decided to open Command Prompt and change the directory to that path, which then enabled step 11 to work.

It's a bit confusing when the same instruction to "Go to" the folder in step 3 means navigate to it with Windows Explorer to find the files in step 4 and 5.

But I can't emphasize enough how much of a life-saver this was!
