Burp Suite Administrator password

Sandy | Last updated: Dec 18, 2018 10:37PM UTC

I just installed the Burp Suite Enterprise Edition. I changed the password, copied it but didn't save it and now I can't log back in. How can I change the password if I don't know the old password? Thank you.

If the issue with logging in is just an incorrect username/password, you can create a new administrator by running a utility which should be in the installation directory called 'adminusercreator'. An example of how to run it is: adminusercreator —username=new_admin —password=letmein —email=some@example.com —dbUrl=jdbc:<your database url> —dbUsername=burp_enterprise —dbPassword=* Please let us know if you need any further assistance.
