Notice: User passwords can be changed at any time from within Unimus in the "User management" screen.
This article is only required if you lose / forget the password to log-in to Unimus - therefore have no way of accessing the "User management" screen.

In this case, since you have no way to log-in to Unimus, you must manually reset the password for at least one user in the database.

You can generate a BCrypt password hash and insert it into the database for the user you wish to reset the password for.
To generate the password hash, you can any online BCrypt hash generator, or generate the hash yourself.
For example, we have tested with this online hasher:

In the database, you will find the SYSTEM_ACCOUNT table.
In this table, you will find each user of the system, and you can change the hash in the PASSWORD row for the necessary user.

To check which database your Unimus instance uses, check the configuration files.

Windows:

C:\ProgramData\Unimus\unimus.properties

 

Linux:
/etc/unimus/unimus.properties

After changing the password hashes in the database, you will be able to log-in to Unimus with the new password that you generated the hash for.

Warining: Do NOT modify any other data in the database, as this will risk corrupting the database integrity.
The above procedure should only be use to regain access to Unimus, in case of total loss of access to the application.
All other user-management tasks (such as changing usernames, deleting users, etc.) MUST be performed from within Unimus.
