Neo4j Server 2.2 Community - How Do I Change Login Password When Current Password Unknown

Question

Windows 7 (SP1) Neo4j Community Edition 2.2

I am using the front end screen to start the server on localhost/7474. The log file says the server is starting successfully. I am unable to remember my password and all documentation I've read about changing the password assumes that you know the current password. I have looked in the dbf/auth file and it contains just a hash. Could some how to change the login passord? Thx.

Answer 1

Have you tried stopping Neo4j, removing the file and restarting Neo4j. That should prompt you for a new password.
