Hi,
I have done something wrong with the security permissions while trying to configure the web server.
The access to the server via http://localhost:8080 doesn't work even for the administrator account. The server returns: "The requested page does not exist on this server."
Is there a way to reset this configuration without reinstalling?
Regards,
Alexandre |

I don't know if this is the right way, but moving all pdbs from the pliant_data directory to another place apparently works.

Ops! The directory is ***pliant_security*** and NOT pliant_data |

the /pliant_security/ directory store all the datas involved in your PLiant environement configuration.
The files in this directory are pliant database format :
. pdb for data . log for data log (full history of each records)
One of the true interesting issue of pliant database is that datas are stored on ASCII files which are really easy to read for an Human, so you can easily edit the file provided you have a direct access to it.
In your case, you can edit value of your administration account recorded in user.pdb in order to get back to a usable configuration.
