How can I reset my admin password on my Plesk Linux server?

Follow the steps as follows


This can be accomplished with the ch_admin_passwd binary.


[root@plesklinux root]# cd /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/

[root@plesklinux bin]# ./ch_admin_passwd --help

./ch_admin_passwd: Utility to set Plesk adminstrator's password

Gets password from the environment variable PSA_PASSWORD

Password should be from 5 to 16 symbols and should not contain login name,

whitespace, quotes or national characters



Usage: ./ch_admin_passwd



-h, --help

display this help and exit



We must export the variable before running the binary. We will unset the variable when we are done.


[root@plesklinux bin]# export PSA_PASSWORD='newpass'

[root@plesklinux bin]# echo $PSA_PASSWORD

newpass

[root@plesklinux bin]# ./ch_admin_passwd

[root@plesklinux bin]# export PSA_PASSWORD=

[root@plesklinux bin]# cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow

newpass

[root@plesklinux bin]#
