There is a different post in this same forum that talks about recovering the lost weblogic administration password. You can find that post at "HOW TO RECOVER WEBLOGIC ADMIN PASSWORD"

the precess defined in the above thread is workable, but little bit complicated. There is another smart way to get past this problem of "lost weblogic admin password" , what it does is "INSTEAD OF TRYING TO RECOVER THE ORIGINAL PASSWORD, 1) ADD ANOTHER ADMIN USER 2) LOGIN TO CONSOLE 3) CHANGE THE PASSWORD OF ORIGINAL USER These three steps are much faster to execute and a smarter approach i would say. Also it involves less user mistakes. Here is the step by step guide Note : replace the $DOMAIN_HOME with the actual path in your environment,.

1) shutdown the domain ( All managed servers & then admin)

2) backup your $DOMAIN_HOME/security folder in case u need it

Code: [Se le ct] c $OANHM d DMI_OE trcfscrt.a scrt a v euiytr euiy

4) change to security folder & Add the new admin user using the below command after setting the environment
Code: [Se le ct] $c ./euiy d .scrt (ipratse,ohrieyuwl gtI ecpin motn tp tews o il e O xeto)

5) remove the below file from ldap directory

r $OANHM/evr/amnsre-ae/aala/ealAtetctryelIi.ntaie m DMI_OEsres<di-evrnm>dt/dpDfutuhniaomramntiiilz

6) start the server using startWebLogic.sh Note : do not use the boot.properties file .. or a wrapper script at the first time

7) login to the console and change the password of the original admin user

Q.4) It is interesting to know that we can create admin using command prompt. In the same way could we create a server in a domain from the command prompt?

We know that we can install weblogic and create a domain from console ..
