If you’ve forgotten the admin password for CloudBeaver, follow these steps to reset it:

Locate the configuration file

1. Access the workspace directory used by the Docker container

   Tip: For more information on locating the workspace directory, see Workspace location.

2. Look for the file named .cloudbeaver.runtime.conf in the .data subdirectory

Edit the configuration file

1. Open .cloudbeaver.runtime.conf in a text editor

2. Locate the line that begins with "serverName": ...

   For details on configuration file, see Server-configuration.

3. Delete this line completely

   Note: If "serverName" is the last property in the file (no comma at the end of that line), also remove the trailing comma from the line above it to keep the JSON valid.

4. Save and close the file

Restart CloudBeaver

Run these commands:

docker compose restart

Tip: For more details on Docker Compose commands, see the Docker Compose CLI reference.

Reset the admin password

1. Access the CloudBeaver setup wizard in your browser using your server's domain.

2. The setup wizard opens. Set a new admin password and adjust any other settings.

   Your license, configured connections, and other settings will remain unchanged.

3. Once complete, the admin password is reset and your server is ready.
