Payara-6.2023.7.zip out of the box master password?

General Getting Started
1

I am looking to try out Payara6(been using Payara5 for a while now)

I have downloaded the Community edition latest version, unzipped it and tried running asadmin start-domain but it is asking me for a master password. I have no clue what this is, tried admin, changeit, default, blank etc

I cannot find a mention to it in the Payara documentation either.
https://docs.payara.fish/community/docs/General%20Info/Getting%20Started.html

What am i missing here?

Thanks,
Ray

Hi all

I have the same issue with: payara-6.2023.11.zip

Never had this issue before and I have been using payara from the very first release.

Why is it asking for a master password?

Rainer

Hi all

I have the same issue.
I noticed that this has appeared since version 6.2023.3
The documentation says that the standard master-password = “changeit”. But he doesn’t fit

Hi,
there is no password – but you have to access the port 4848 from localhost.
If you want to access it remotely, you need the secure admin:
