SEC reinstall over to change db un and pw failing.

SEC 5.0.0.8

I am trying to reinstall the enterprise console over again to change the user and password used for the db. For some reason the install constantly fails. Any ideas?

  • Hi,

    Well if you like, you could re-obfuscate the current password and set the usecleartext back to 0

    To do so:

    1. Copy C:\sec_50\tools\ObfuscationUtil.exe to the Enterprise Console directory, e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Enterprise Console\

    2. In a command prompt, CD to:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Enterprise Console\

    3. Run:

    ObfuscationUtil.exe -w --obfuscate password

    changing password for the password you use.

    4. Copy this generated string to the registry key holding the password and revert usecleartext to 0

    5. Check that the management service can restart ok.

    6. Re-run the modify.
