Hello,

I have installed sonarqube 10.0.0 using zip media and installation was successful using embeded database. I changed the default password for admin account on the prompt and able to login.

After my installation was completed, I have changed my sonar.properties file to external database (MSSQL Server) and application was stopped and started back again. After I got login page, the initial admin user and changed password doesn’t work anymore. I assume it is because the user and password is being used in embeded database.

I even tried re-installing the app and install using the external DB but it never prompted to change the password again. I need temporary admin access before we do the migration of the heritage system.

Can someone share any idea on this ?

Thanks
