Unarchiving a repository - login credentials unknown

[Former Member]

Hi Experts

I am having trouble unarchiving an existing repository because I don't have the log on details for it. Username Admin/blank password does not work. Is there any way I can manage the users in the console without having to login first?

Thanks

Hi,

There is no way to change anything into the rspository without login into it. You need to try different login creadentials to access the repository.

Since it is a training repository please try username as admin with blank passowrd.

Could you please tell us the link from where did u get this repository?

Hi Jitesh,

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately I do not know where the training docs originally came from - they were provided to me by a colleague who I cannot contact. They were clearly written for a previous version of MDM (I'm using MDM 5.5 SP04) as some screen shots don't match but I have no other information on them.

I already tried to login as User=Admin Password=[blank] but not successful.

Any other ideas anyone?

Thanks

Hi Ed,

Username is also case sensitive in MDM try in small letters admin and a blank password.

Thanks Ed,

Just remember one thing majority of the training repositories have the same login credentials. Since it is for training purpose password is kept blank only because it is of no use to keep the passowrd and make it visible for all the users.

P.S. The repository I'm trying to login to was unarchived from a file called InQuera050624.a2a whichis provided as a sample with a training excercise for Data Manager - perhaps you've come accross this repository before?
