You can override database credentials for the admin account and application account in the configuration.yml file when you start the GUI by using the UNIX environment variables PING_DB_ADMIN_USER, PING_DB_ADMIN_PASSWORD, PING_DB_APP_USER, and PING_DB_APP_PASSWORD.

For more information about these and other UNIX environment variables you can use to override configuration settings, see Starting PingAuthorize Policy Editor.

  1. Stop the Policy Editor.
    bin/stop-server
  2. Set the environment variables and start the Policy Editor.
The following example starts the server with the overridden policy database admin credentials adminuser / Passw0rd and the overridden policy database application credentials app / S3cret. These environment variables override any values in configuration.yml.
env PING_DB_ADMIN_USERNAME=adminuser \
  PING_DB_ADMIN_PASSWORD=Passw0rd \
  PING_DB_APP_USER=app \
  PING_DB_APP_PASSWORD=S3cret \
  bin/start-server
