P/N 232-002504-00 Rev A
Release Notes
• I'd like to change the MySQL "scrutinizer" user password from the default to something more secure. Is
there anything else I need to do other than set the password in MySQL?
Update MySQL Root password via CLI using scrut_util.exe located in the [HOMEDIR]\Scrutinizer\bin\
directory. There is a two-step process, resetting the password then updating the plixer.ini file.
Options:
-reset_mysql_password
Changes the MySQL root account password:
-update_plixerini_mysqlroot
Use this command to update the plixer.ini database root user password. Scrutinizer and the database root
password must be in sync.
Usage Example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Scrutinizer\bin>scrut_util.exe -reset_mysql_password
Changing Password for MySQL Root Password: Press <ENTER> to abort.
Note: On Windows 2008/2012 and Windows 7, you must run this command from the Administrator Command
Prompt
New Password:
Verify Password:
Attempting to login with new password ... PASS!
Password Updated for MySQL Root ... DONE!
