New Dev instance asking for admin password

Genaro

I have these message on a brand new instance (created today):

Your password is non-compliant with the Password Policy.

System administrator requires you to change your password

 

Then a "Change Password: page shows up. Enter current password and then new password. URL: https://myinstance.service-now.com/login_cpw.do

 

Using this page to reset the password doesn't resolve the problem. I get the same messages again. 

 

Yes, my password is compliant and I used it to log into this developer forum.

 

Before, I would start the instance and be logged in so not sure what's expected here. 

 

Thanks!

Thanks for the Tip. 

 

I went to "Manage instance password". Then I clicked on "reset instance password" and a new password was generated. 

 

I opened the PDI and used that to log in. It worked. Although not sure why this was required when I never had to do this before.

 

Thanks!!!!
