Hey there.

It’s not clear to me what you’re trying to accomplish. Can you provide more details?

Hi! I want to pass a variable with the password value from terraform to ansible, where it will be encrypted, and sent to the docker-compose file template, which will start the sonarqube and psql containers, and also change the password for the ‘admin’ user using the init.sql file. I was able to do this in the old version using the “BCRYPT” algorithm and the reset_password=‘true’ parameter. In the new version, in order to generate a hash for my new password, I need to know the length of the dk_len key. And I need the right tool for that.

Why is my reply missing?

Hi @Ashley_Chhumtl,

FYI, your first reply tripped our (not very bright) spam filter. And then your repeated attempts to re-post the same (not-spam) reply just aggravated it. So all your replies were quarantined until just now, when I rejected the spam flags.

So that’s what happened, and I apologize for the confusion & frustration. I’m going to do a little cleanup in this thread.

It sounds like you’re trying to directly edit the database, which we don’t reccomend.

Could you try and use a Web API like POST api/users/change_password?
