Re: [Exist-open] Locked out of DB AGAIN, strange unwanted admin password change, how to reset it ?

Well, is that by accident or by design decision... If the latter, please reconsider, if the former please mend.

 

IMHO: Given the terrible consequences this is absolutely something that needs some other approach

When you edit user you have to set password each time. Otherwise password will be set to empty string one. And because your client connected by old/previous password you will hit "wrong password"

Update : reproducing the problem seems even more simple

Wipe the DB

the user admin now has an empty password

Go to the java client user manager, open admin user, you have 5 "dots"
in each password fields ..
Press "Save"  => error message "wrong password" and you are locked out

The console I opened the client with displays
