Are you looking for a way to reset CyberPanel admin password?

CyberPanel comes with cool functionality and allows to easily manage it from the command-line interface.

However, it can throw errors while doing a password reset.

That’s why, at Bobcares, we receive requests regarding CyberPanel as a part of our Server Management Services.

Today, let’s see how our Support Engineers perform the CyberPanel reset admin password.

CyberPanel

Before digging further, let’s get a quick idea of the CyberPanel as such.

CyberPanel is a web hosting control panel powered by OpenLiteSpeed.

The setup is rather easy. Moreover, it is completely free to host an unlimited number of domains.

CyberPanel Enterprise is free only for a single domain. To host multiple numbers of domains, we need to purchase a license.

Similarly, CyberPanel supports Apache as well. That’s another reason why many customers choose CyberPanel as a perfect alternative for cPanel and Plesk.

Let us discuss how our Support Engineers reset and retrieve admin password

Retrieve admin password

Recently one of our customers forgot the CyberPanel admin password. We’ll now check how our Support Engineers retrieved the password.

By default, we can retrieve the CyberPanel password from the server itself. For this, we use the command,

sudo cat .litespeed_password

This shows the admin password.

How to reset CyberPanel admin password from the server

To change the admin password, we login to the server.

Our Support Engineers run the following command to reset the admin password:

python /usr/local/CyberCP/plogical/adminPass.py --password newpassword

Replace password with the current password. Replace the new password with the preferred password.

Thus the password can be reset by this step only if we know the password. Or we retrieve the password from the above steps.

How to reset CyberPanel password from the panel

In some cases customers prefer to do a password reset from the panel itself.

To do this, our Support Engineers first log in to the panel.

Click on the drop-down near the name.

Then we click on Edit profile.

Now we enter the New password. Finally, we save the changes by clicking Modify User.

Thus the password will be reset.
