Can't change SYSTEM password

516 Views

I have a free AWS Amazon trial of SAP HANA developers edition.

I'm seeing this...

The free trial came with Cockpit and I was able to set my SYSTEM password there, but I'm still seeing...

sid-hdb:/usr/sap/HDB/HDB00> hdbsql -n localhost -i 00 -u SYSTEM

Password:

* 10: authentication failed SQLSTATE: 28000

sid-hdb:/usr/sap/HDB/HDB00>

Then I try to reset the password using these instructions, still can't do it.

I ultimately want to connect to SAP HANA via JDBC, but I can't seem to get the SYSTEM database account working. Does Cockpit not handle this on the database side?
