      @wirestyle22 awx-manage might be in /opt/awx/bin, /opt/awx/sbin, or something like that. Here I thought the default username/password wouldn't get broken in their code updates. Like @stacksofplates said, AWX looks nice, but the devs are breaking it so often that it isn't something I'd consider production ready. I tried running through this a 3rd time, did everything the same, and it didn't work last night 😞

          @travisdh1 seems like I should be able to change the admin password via cli, but it's not recognizing the command. @stacksofplates any ideas?

            It's really sad that they are treating AWX this way. Basically means that Ansible/Tower is out of the question because they can't keep a stable code base.

              @travisdh1 I have to imagine that there is a way for me to change a user's password via cli that doesn't use awx-manage, if not then what is the reason that I am unable to use it? Not familiar with it enough to know though. Haven't found anything online yet.

                Obviously I've not had to use awx-manage yet myself. Did you do a sudo find / -name "awx-manage"?

                  @travisdh1 went to http://192.168.1.x/api/v1/config/ to try the basic auth prompt. Same issue.

                    I won't have access to mine till I get home tonight. Poke me latter and I'll see if I can find awx-manage.

                      I found it. It's in /opt/awx/tools/docker-compose

                      command still errors.

                        Seems to be the standard operating mode for AWX. It's broke, they nay or may not get the broken bits fixed in the next release.

                            @travisdh1 Got it working.

                            inventory file in /opt/awx/installer has this line:

                            #This will create or update a default admin (superuser) account in AWX, if not provided
                            #then these default values are used
                            admin_user=admin
                            admin_password=password

                            I changed the password and re-ran install.yml. It applied the new password.

                              It's really sad that they are treating AWX this way. Basically means that Ansible/Tower is out of the question because they can't keep a stable code base.

                              Tower is really stable. AWX is a bad upstream. I used Tower for a couple years and it's rock solid.

                                Another thing to note. I believe it's the rabbitmq password that can't accept an @ in the password.
