Hi.

Is it a way out of this?

You can use the openhab:users changePassword command on the Console to change it. :slight_smile:

openhab> openhab:users --help
Usage: openhab:users list - lists all users
Usage: openhab:users add <userId> <password> <role> - adds a new user with the specified role
Usage: openhab:users remove <userId> - removes the given user
Usage: openhab:users changePassword <userId> <newPassword> - changes the password of a user
Usage: openhab:users listApiTokens - lists the API tokens for all users
Usage: openhab:users addApiToken <userId> <tokenName> <scope> - adds a new API token on behalf of the specified user for the specified scope
Usage: openhab:users rmApiToken <userId> <tokenName> - removes (revokes) the specified API token
Usage: openhab:users clearSessions <userId> - clear the refresh tokens associated with the user (will sign the user out of all sessions)

Hi there,

I have a similar problem. I can still login using ssh but not on the GUI via browser. It wont accept my password / username. I guess I must have a typo in it but I am unable to restore / remember the original words.
Is there an an option to see via the SSH connection the user that I had set up via the browser? I do not even remember the username (8

Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the quick reply.
When I put in “openhab:users list” it returns
“-bash: openhab:users: command not found”

You need to enter the command in the karaf console not in the shell console.
after ssh’ing to your pi: openhab-cli console
then run the previous mentioned command.

Thank you so much, problem solved.
Just one more question,
why are there two separate command consoles?

one is the linux standard shell console for linux shell commands the other one is the ‘low level’ interface of the OH service/application ( karaf console ).
More information can be found e.g. at The Console | openHAB
