Changing the Derby password

In a production environment, we strongly recommend changing the Derby password from its default. The JAVA_HOME environment variable must be set for the ./changeDerbyPassword.sh script to work.

  • Stop Striim and Derby (see Starting and stopping Striim Platform).

  • Open a terminal and change to the striim directory.

  • Change the password in Derby:

    • In CentOS or Ubuntu, enter sudo su - striim bin/changeDerbyPassword.sh

    • In OS X, enter bin/changeDerbyPassword.sh.

    • In Windows, enter bin\changeDerbyPassword.

  • When prompted, enter the username waction, the current password (in a new installation, the password is w@ct10n), and the new password.

  • Change the password in Striim's keystore:

    • In CentOS or Ubuntu, enter sudo su - striim bin/sksConfig.sh -p

    • In OS X, enter bin/sksConfig.sh -p

    • In Windows, enter bin\sksConfig -p

  • Restart Derby and Striim (see Starting and stopping Striim Platform).
