Solution



If you're using Atlassian-user:




update users set password='x61Ey612Kl2gpFL56FT9weDnpSo4AV8j8+qx2AuTHdRyY036xxzTTrw10Wq3+4qQyB+XURPWx1ONxp3Y3pB37A==' where name='admin'




(This has been tested on a PostgreSQL backend for Confluence-2.8.0)



If you're using OSuser authentication:




update os_user set passwd='x61Ey612Kl2gpFL56FT9weDnpSo4AV8j8+qx2AuTHdRyY036xxzTTrw10Wq3+4qQyB+XURPWx1ONxp3Y3pB37A==' where username='admin';





This will update the user admin (you can replace this with the username of your admin) with the password admin.
