Hello,

I’m testing encryption and would like to change the media password

“Control Panel” → System → Change Password → Change Media Password

I can’t remember I typed a password in the past, but to set/change it I need an old one.

When I leave it blank I get following error:

 

Is it possible to set/change the password?

Thank You

Hi @Sergej ,

From my research it may be possible to decrypt this old password that is set in the database. 

Running the following SQL query should return the old encrypted password

 - select * from GxGlobalParam where name = 'mediapassword'

 We should have tools on our end that can decrypt this.  

 

For obvious security reasons though may I suggest to open a support ticket for this to have a more “private” exchange of this information…

 

Regards,

Joe
