Fail to log into AEM with the default user name and password

Cannot log into AEM with the default user name and password.

Cause: you may have changed the login username and password of the AEM when you installed PowerServer.

Solution: Use the username and password specified when you install PowerServer.

If you want to restore the default settings, follow the two methods below:

  1. Reinstall PowerServer. During the reinstallation, do not change the login username and password of AEM.

  2. Revise the appeon\AEM\config\aem.config (for .NET) or appeon\repository\%instancename%\config\aem-config.xml (for .J2EE) file under the PowerServer installation directory: replacing the line in the file with the line <user name="YWRtaW4=" password="YWRtaW4="/>, then restarting PowerServer to make the changes take effect.
