Starting with Pipeline Pilot 2022, there is no longer a default password for the Pipeline Pilot scitegicadmin administrator account. You must provide a password for this account at the end of the installation.

If the password that was set during installation is lost, it is possible to get the set password dialog back by following one of the below methods.

Method 1

1. Stop the Pipeline Pilot services on the impacted instance.
2. Navigate to the "\xmldb\Objects\" folder.
3. Rename the file "AuthUsers.xml" to e.g. "AuthUsers.xml.backup" in order to have a backup.
4. Open a command prompt on the server as an administrator and navigate to the "\bin\" directory.
5. Issue the command “DbUtil.exe -t”.
6. Start the Pipeline Pilot services.
7. In a browser, go to the Pipeline Pilot Admin Portal, you will be presented with a menu to set the new password.

Note: In case you have additional entries in the original \xmldb\Objects\AuthUsers.xml file, you can add them to the new AuthUsers.xml file that was created from the steps above.

Method 2

As an alternative to the above, it should also be possible to edit the "/xmldb/Objects/AuthUsers.xml" file and set the scitegicadmin password to "MUTANDUM" which will bring up the create password dialog the next time you go to the Pipeline Pilot Admin Portal after restarting the Pipeline Pilot services.
