Have just installed Emby on my NAS server, cannot remember my password for my emby server asked for a password reset but only gave me below,  Not sure how to get to the path shown as /var/packages/embyserver/target/passwordreset

 

 

 

How do I get to it?  any help would be appreciated Robert1953

It was a PM from @Abobader 

 

"So I went a head and deleted the data for users at /config/users and for x, y, and z. then enable back wizard and create x and then all work fine."

Hi 

Thank you for the replies which I followed. I followed the instructions and managed to find the appropriate file with the pin no.  However it states cut and paste the url above to access the site and use the pin to reset the password.  This does not work at all.  I cannot use the URL and it fails every time I have tried to use it.  So basically a waste of time and effort - should emby not provide a simpler method to change a password!!!! 

 

I then tried to remove the emby server from my NAS and install a clean version and start again, this is not straightforward.  So I logged onto my sinology using SSH and Putty but - I was able to login as admin and root.  (Same password apparently)  but when I tried to use WinSCP I could not login as root to remove the software.  Does anyone have any ideas please?  I would be grateful.  If the password system in place had worked I would not have this problem

 

Thanks
