Hope you are well. I have a problem. I successfully installed the latest centreon version 23.04 but two days ago, my admin account stopped to work. Actually, I see the message Authentication failed. Just mention that I don’t loss my password, it is the same after installation and until several successfully web access but suddenly it stopped to work.
2023-05-10 10:17:31|0|0|0||local] cX.X.X.X] Authentication failed for 'admin' : invalid credentials
I don't get this error on all devices. It doesn't work on my pc but it works on another (with the same credentials) :
2023-05-10 10:19:54|1|0|0|1local] oX.X.X.224] Authentication succeeded for 'admin' 2023-05-10 10:20:37|0|0|0|0local] oX.X.X.203] Authentication failed for 'admin' : invalid credentials
Hi guys, can you open develop tab on your browser and check in “network” tab the payload for the call to the “local” endpoint when you click on “Connect”
Your credentials are correct?
That's it ! In my case a copy paste problem with my password manager ! Thanks a lot ;)
Hi @Laurent,
I don’t have the same page. However, I also checked the log and I saw this new message :
2023-05-10 11:04:43|0|0|0||local] lx.x.x.x] Authentication failed for 'admin' : invalid credentials 2023-05-10 11:04:43|-1|0|0||local] lINFO] User is blocked: maximum number of authentication attempts was reached {"contact_alias":"admin"}
Hi @Varos,
Please, can you give me explanation ?
Thanks in advance !
Hi @GUY504,
I had the same problem with the log, it's because you tried to login in too many times.
You need to “reset” your number of attempts :
# Connect to DB mysql -u root
# Check if you are blocked SELECT contact_id, contact_alias, login_attempts, blocking_time FROM centreon.contact;
# Reset login attempts and blocking_time UPDATE centreon.contact set login_attempts=NULL, blocking_time=NULL;
Hi @Varos,
Thanks for your answer, i noticed that i was blocked but the problem is the same. How can i change the admin password ?
Thanks in advance :)
Hello,
I still have the same issue, I preferred to remove and reinstall centreon because I don’t have enough of time.
Thanks everyone !
Bonjour, ca peut vous aider.
1. Générer le mot de passe souhaité pour le compte admin avec le protocole MD5
php -r 'echo md5("karrhell");'
le resultat est : a7d40cdbe2b81ff5036dbaaa90a290d1
2. Sécuriser la base de données
mysql_secure_installation
3. Se connecter à la base de données :
mysql -u root -p
4. Utiliser la base de données Centreon
use centreon;
5. Changer le mot de passe
UPDATE contact_password SET password='a7d40cdbe2b81ff5036dbaaa90a290d1' where contact_id='1';
6.Tester le mot de passe sur l'interface de connexion
