roboRio Web Service admin Aaccount Not Working

Technical Java
1

Up until now, we have had no problems building and deploying code to the roboRio. Today, we downloaded code to test an ultrasonic sensor and we get this error;

C:\Users\robotics\wpilib\java\current\ant\build.xml:114: com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT: 2 Too many authentication failures for admin

After a quick search we realized we needed to change our build.properties file’s username and password to correspond with the username and password for a roboRio account. We connected to the roboRio web service and tried to login with the account “admin”, with no password. We couldn’t logon. Is this not the default admin account? If it is and we are just locked out is there anything we can do to reset the roboRio back to default?

Sounds like your admin account password has either been changed by someone or corrupted. Re-image the roboRIO, using Safe Mode (by holding reset for 15s) if necessary.
