AWX Operator - Unable to login post migration

Get Help

1

I’ve made some great progress and migrated from 17.1.0 on CentOS to the AWX Operator. I first migrated my Postgres database to an external one, then used the code at the end.

The migration appears to have worked, and the login screen shows my graphic and login banner message. However, I am unable to log in using the admin password I specified in awx-admin-password.

awx-secret-key is the one taken from the old installation.

Does anyone know what I might be missing or where I should begin ti diagnose the issue?

Hi, Operator does not update admin password if admin user already exists in DB.
Maybe you can login as admin with old admin password which was used on the old inatance before migration.

If not (or want to reset password), consider using awx-manage update_password command in the task pod.

Hi,

I should have added that it’s the same password as the old installation.

Okay if resetting password does not help, could you please check the logs from web pod, and see response to your login request by using developer mode in your browser?

There might be CORS error or so.
