Hey,

no. If the mid-server user password was changed, you will have to reconfigure you mid-servers again to use the new password. It's best to give the mid-server user a new password and use that instead.

so uninstall the current server agent and install a new one with a new password?

No. You can just go into the config file on the mid server VM and change the password there:

  1. Open the \agent\config.xml file using any text editor.
  2. Locate the following lines:
    <parameter name="mid.instance.password" value="*******************"/>
     
  3. Edit the value.
  4. Save the record.
  5. Restart the MID Server service.

Perfect !!! @Fabian Kunzke
