Property Name Default Value Property Description
database.password 3DES{encrypted_password} Sets the password for the user identified by database.username. Its value depends on the database.type.

Details

The password is encrypted using 3DES encryption. You do not need to encrypt the passwords manually before placing them in the configuration file. When the server is started, any unencrypted password is automatically replaced with an encrypted password and written back to the configuration file.

If you need to change the password, just replace the existing value 3DES{encrypted_password} with the new, unencrypted password.

If you use the default database.type=H2, but in cluster mode, a value is required. The cluster must be down when you change the password. For H2, defining this value actually sets the password.
