<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My Geoserver, inside Geonode 2.4 on Ubuntu 16.04, won’t let go of old admin passwords.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I used manage.py createsuperuser to set the Geonode admin password when I did my manual install. Pretty sure that password then worked for logging into Geoserver as admin also.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve since changed the Geoserver admin password through the UI, twice, and also done so by calling manage.py changepassword directly and from ansible.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In total I’ve used 2 new passwords. Both passwords, and the original one ‘geoserver’, now work when logging in as admin. Other random passwords do not.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It’s not entirely clear but this may be the behaviour reported back in September in this post:<u></u><u></u></p>
