Unable to find the inital admin password for the webui #28

Closed adam248 closed 6 months ago

adam248 commented 6 months ago

Hi, I was just testing this out in NixOS and I am using services.portunus.enable etc... I see that the initial password is printed to stdout only once but I did this with a nixos-rebuild switch command which runs Portunus as a system service.

I am hoping there is a way to still get the initial password or a simple way to set it myself.

Or should I delete and run it directly first, then enable the service?

You can find the password in journald by running journalctl -u portunus -e. If it is no longer there, you need to delete the state directory /var/lib/portunus or you seed your admin user.

Thank you very much. Deleting the dir and re-running and then journalctl did the trick.
