Error During Qlik Replicate User Password Change

[SushilKumar]

What to consider when a user is unable to change the Qlik Replicate server password. See Changing the server password for general information.

Windows

Key Considerations:

• The user must be a Local Administrator or a Domain Administrator
• Always run the command prompt with Run as Administrator

Steps:

1. Run the following in the Windows command line:
   
   cd < Qlik replicate install Dir/bin >
   
   repctl [-d data-directory] SETSERVERPASSWORD new_password
   
   Replace data-directory with your Qlik Replicate data directory. The default path is <product_dir>/data.
   
   
2. Restart the Qlik Replicate service

Linux

Key Consideration:

• Log in as Root

Steps:

1. Run the following command:
   
   cd < Qlik replicate install Dir/bin >
   
   repctl [-d data-directory] SETSERVERPASSWORD new_password
   
   Include -d data-directory in the command if you changed the default data directory (e.g. when installing multiple Replicate Linux instances).
   
   
2. Restart the Qlik Replicate instance
