What is the default Jenkins password?

Question

I\'m using a EC2 server instance. Used the following to install Jenkins:

wget -q -O - http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/debian/jenkins-ci.org.key | sudo apt-key add          


        

Answer 1

For me the best method of retrieving admin pass is by executing cat command inside the running container.

docker exec YOUR_JENKINS_CONTAINER cat /var/jenkins_home/secrets/initialAdminPassword
