Hi, I've just downloaded ActiveMQ 5.9.0 and install it as a Linux Service on an Amazon EC2 32bits machine.
I have an access to the Hawtio Web console and can login using the admin / admin credentials as explained on the ActiveMQ Web Site : > From ActiveMQ 5.8 onwards the web apps is secured out of the box. > The default username and password is admin/admin. You can configure this > in the conf/jetty-real.properties file Because having admin / admin as credentials is not really secure I want to change them. But changing the credentials inside the conf/jetty-realm.properties file does not work. For example using the following configuration : # Defines users that can access the web (console, demo, etc.) # username: password [,rolename ...] admin: aaaa, admin user: user, user I'm expecting to being able to login using the admin / aaaa credentials, but using those credentials simply returns a HTTP 403 error. Oddly this configuration still allow me to login using the admin / admin credentials. If I change the conf/jetty-realm.properties file using this same problem (I can login using admin / admin but not bbbb / aaaa) : # Defines users that can access the web (console, demo, etc.) # username: password [,rolename ...] bbbb: aaaa, admin user: user, user My ActiveMQ install is "classical", I've installed it as a Linux service using the following commands : sudo bin/activemq setup /etc/default/activemq INFO: Creating configuration file: /etc/default/activemq INFO: It's recommend to limit access to '/etc/default/activemq' to the priviledged user INFO: (recommended: chown 'root':nogroup '/etc/default/activemq'; chmod 600 '/etc/default/activemq') sudo chgrp ec2-user /etc/default/activemq sudo chmod 600 /etc/default/activemq cd apache-activemq-5.9.0 sudo bin/activemq start I should point out that each time I changed the credentials I restarted the server using 'sudo service activemq restart'. So, do you know what could be the problem ?
