I had a similar experience which was solved by adding
permit=127.0.0.1/255.255.255.0
to [admin] in manager.conf
How can I view/change that password in the MySQL Database?
What command did you use to retrieve the password?
i tried âtcpdump -i any -v tcp port 5038 > dumpâ
but thatâs not really working.
i entered a new password into ./install_FreePBX and apply config fails with retrieve_conf encounters an error.
unable to set advanced settings to look at, or change, AMPMGRPASSWORD, as apparently a reload_config is required (which of course doesnât work because cannot connect)
looking in database, default password is still there; configuration files have different password.
changing password in database doesnât seem to effect the change; tcpdump shows NO packets when apply config clicked.
changing password (to default) in manager.conf, amportal.conf, and âmodule reload managerâ has no apparent effect.
rebooting didnât help.
