I’ve tried setting a password with awx-admin.yml file that has the secret configuration. I’ve applied it and that password doesn’t work even after doing so. I’ve tried two commands for fetching a password, I get the password back that I set but it doesn’t let me login with “admin” and the password. See attached secrets file that I applied. kubectl get secret awx-admin-password -o jsonpath=“{.data.password}” | base64 --decode VJK3tWwNDsN48d7ZGTB51CFr4tpv9Vxh% kubectl -n awx get secret awx-admin-password -o go-template=‘{{range $k,$v := .data}}{{printf “%s: " $k}}{{if not $v}}{{$v}}{{else}}{{$v | base64decode}}{{end}}{{”\n"}}{{end}}’ password: VJK3tWwNDsN48d7ZGTB51CFr4tpv9Vxh Everything indicates that is the password. Yet that won’t let me in. > **(attachments)** > > [awx-admin.yml](https://forum.ansible.com/uploads/short-url/lfJzm2bhAVq8wz17TY4AFIOX9zI.yml) (142 Bytes) ---

Never mind, I solved this by logging into the shell of the web pod and using the awx-manage changepassword admin command it worked. I’m now in.
