Reset "admin" Account

If the admin user for uControl becomes locked due to failed login attempts you will need to access the uControl CLI to unlock the account. These steps will unlock the account and set the password back to the standard “Out of the box” account password.

1. Login to the uControl CLI with the uControl user

2. Navigate to the /apps/uControl/security directory

3. Edit the database.properties file

   db.adminAccountReset=false

4. Update the “db.adminAccountReset” variable value to “true”

   db.adminAccountReset=true

5. Restart the uControl application services

   sudo systemctl restart ucontrol

Once the services have restarted you will then be able to login with the standard user account details
