Web Access password help?

Post by lovat » Sun Jan 12, 2014 8:31 pm

In the wiki at http://www.argus-tv.com/wiki/index.php?title=Web-Access, it says
Enter the credentials you entered in the setup web-access credentials screen, and click “Log on”.
Problem: I don't remember doing this. I'm using UtiliDev, and the http://localhost:42080/en/Account/LogOn does work, and asks me for my log on info.

How can I reset this, did I do a set up on this and just glazed over and didn't see it?

Any help appreciated!
Thank you,
Greg

Either run the installer again. (easiest) It will uninstall ARGUS TV, when it asks whether to do a full uninstall select NO. Provided you don't do a full uninstall, all your existing settings will be kept.

Or find the .config file. (not too hard) The file is "Program Files(x86)\ARGUS TV\Web Access\Web.config"
Open it with Notepad. You're looking for:

Code: Select all

      <setting name="AuthenticationUserName" serializeAs="String">
        <value>     Username here     </value>
      </setting>
      <setting name="AuthenticationPassword" serializeAs="String">
        <value>     Password here     </value>
      </setting>
You can fix it, or you can fix it until it's broken. I usually choose the latter.

Thank you.

I used method 2, and it worked perfectly.
It seemed like a lot less messing around than the installer method.

Working great now.

Thank you.
