demo/demo login doesnt work - camunda7 helm chart

Team ,
I have installed camunda7 using helm charts. My application is up and running at /camunda . However the demo/demo login doesnt work., No errors in logs either. Can someone help here ?

Im using an external postgresql. I see the table act_id_user has demo user and 3 other users. Tried adding a new user and even updating pwd for existing user. But none worked.

The demo/demo login is generated by the demo invoice project. If that project isn’t deployed the demo user isn’t created. Instead you should be shown with a screen asking you to create a user.

I see demo credentials in the database. Does it mean its deployed ? Also, create user screen isnt shown … i got the login screen directly

So another way the credentials can be setup is in engine properties - usually in the application.yml if you’re using springboot, that’ll have the username and password defined

Using default Tomcat

Hey, did you find a solution for this issue, I have the same problem and could not find a way to solve it.

I remember checking the database for credentials
select * from act_id_user where id_=‘demo’;
but not sure if that got resolved. We shortly moved on to a different setup where this wasnt an issue

What version of Camunda are you using? Are you using Embedded or Shared Engine?

I am using Camunda 7, the modeler work normally, but when I start the Tomcat it give me that there is no admin “demo/demo” and ask me to create a new admin, so I did, however, when I deploy any model from the modeler it does not appear on the tomcat, I remove everything and start from the beginning and got the same issue I even tried to create the admin by putting “demo/demo” for the new one.

Based on your answer, I assume that you are using Shared Camunda Engine. But you did not answer what is Camunda version like 7.16 or 7…21.

What’s the url you are trying to access the Camunda application?

To test your scenario, I downloaded latest version of tomcat distribution, started the sever, able to login with demo/demo user.
