You can easily reset it to a new password with just a few steps. Here’s how to successfully reset your password.\nIf you haven’t forgotten the password and just want to change it, go directly to the Password Reset page.\nActivate Override Mode\nConnect via SSH\nFirst, you need to log in to your server via SSH. Once logged in, navigate to the Sinusbot directory. Usually, this is \/opt\/sinusbot.\nStop Running Instances\nNext, you need to stop all running Sinusbot instances. We’ll use a method to stop all processes named „sinusbot“:\npkill -f \".sinusbot\"\nLog in as Sinusbot User\nTo start the Sinusbot, you need a separate user, usually named sinusbot. Log in as this user in your SSH console.\nUse the following command, replacing „sinusbot“ with the username you chose during installation if needed:\nsu sinusbot\nStart Rescue Mode\nNow that you are logged in as the Sinusbot user, you can start the Sinusbot in password override mode. Warning: This mode is only for resetting the password and is not secure for general use. It overrides the admin password for the current session.\nUse the following command to start the PW Reset mode:\n.\/sinusbot -override-password=temppassword123\nSinusbot in „Rescue Mode“\nThe Sinusbot is now in Rescue Mode. Important: Keep the SSH session open; do not close it.\nOpen the Sinusbot web interface at Server-IP:8087 in your browser. You can log in with the user „admin“ and the temporary password „temppassword123“.\nReset Sinusbot Password\nAfter logging into the web interface, you need to set a new password for the admin user. Navigate to „Settings“ > „User Accounts“ and click the „Edit“ icon next to the admin user. In the dialog that opens, set a new password for the admin user and save the changes.\nYou will be automatically logged out. Do not log in with the new details yet.\nGo back to the SSH session and press CTRL+C to exit Rescue Mode. Then log out from the Sinusbot user and switch back to the root user.\nexit\nYou should now be logged in as the root user. Start the Sinusbot normally with:\nservice sinusbot start\nGo back to your browser and refresh the page. Now log in with the new admin credentials. The username is „admin“ and the password is the one you just set. If you forget the password, start over.\nCompleted Sinusbot PW reset","schema":null,"facts":[],"links":[{"type":"external","url":"http:\/\/sinusbot-password-reset","data":{"title":"Seo Tool","meta_description":"","meta":{"":"","viewport":"width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no"}}},{"type":"external","url":"http:\/\/log-in-as-sinusbot-user","data":{"title":"Seo Tool","meta_description":"","meta":{"":"","viewport":"width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no"}}}]}}
