How do I reset Koha's admin password so I can log into the Web-based administrative interface?
You can use this script:
- misc/devel/create_superlibrarian.pl --help
I think the options would be something like create_superlibrarian.pl --userid <your_username> --password <your_new_password> --branchcode <your_library_code> --categorycode <your_patron_category>
We should really add this to our documentation!

Thank you for the prompt reply, but alas, the create_superlibrarian.pl seems to require all of options: Usage: create_superlibrarian.pl --userid <userid> --password <password> --branchcode <branchcode> --categorycode <categorycode> --cardnumber <cardnumber> Options: -?|--help brief help message --userid specify the userid to be set --password specify the password to be set --branchcode specify the library code --categorycode specify the patron category code --cardnumber specify the cardnumber to be set And I do not know of any values for --categorycode nor --cardnumber.
