login user gone??

itsupport_sgp · Post by **itsupport_sgp** » Wed Jan 21, 2015 9:34 am

Hi,

I have just added a new nagios log server instance and after rebooting both instance, I'm not able to login anymore.
It says users do not exist??
Have tried the default 'nagiosadmin' account and it is not working too.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

You can try resetting the nagiosadmin password by running in the CLI:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagioslogserver/scripts
./reset_nagiosadmin_password.sh -p <your new password>

where you substitute the <your new password> with your actual password. Let me know if this helped.

Hi,

It seems like even the nagiosadmin userid is gone as it says 'The username specified does not exist.'
It is not working even after doing the password reset.

Any ideas on how to create an userid via the CLI?

Thanks.

Can you execute the following from the CLI and see if any users exist

Code: Select all

curl "http://localhost:9200/nagioslogserver/user/_search?pretty"

Can you run this command exactly like it is and post the results?

Code: Select all

curl "http://localhost:9200/nagioslogserver/user/_search?pretty"

Run this from the CLI as root exactly as written, with the newline after "-d":

Code: Select all

curl -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/nagioslogserver/user/2' -d '{"username":"someuser","password":"c678bcf3b5138b9263a95c44d28097f22c2e02877193d2c25313478821d45c19","auth_type":"admin","email":"[email protected]","language":"default","apiaccess":"1","apikey":"1396e08757545557073844695e5b64caa0bd3ad3","created":"2015-01-23 10:00:00","created_by":0,"default_dashboard":"/dashboard/elasticsearch/default"}'

This will create a user named "someuser" with the password "nagiosls". You can use this account to log in and optionally create the accounts that you need, then delete the "someuser" account as one of the other users when done.

Great tip!

Issue resolved now.

However, I still don't get it why the accounts are gone by itself.
