Sonatype Nexus - can not login anymore with admin user

I have a Sonatype Nexus installed and I have the default user admin / admin123. Now I changed the Authenticating Realm to LDAP and removed XML Authenticating Realm and XML Authorizing Realm. LDAP is not working and my admin account is also not working. I think it is because I disabled the XML Realm. How can I enable this? I have full access to the filesystem. The password can not be the problem, I did not change it.

So I can not login anymore. What can I do?

Best Regards, Tim.

Solution

  • Edit the nexus.xml to insert the Xml Realm back in and restart Nexus.
