Edit me
Gitlab
gitlab-rails console
ssh root@159.65.8.44
# gitlab-rails console
# user = User.find_by_username 'exampleuser'
#or
user = User.find(123)
#or
user = User.find_by(email: 'onofftony@gmail.com')
user.password = 'secret_pass'
user.password_confirmation = 'secret_pass'
user.send_only_admin_changed_your_password_notification!
user.save!
in case password reset doesn’t appear to work;
skip the reconfirmation feature as in below
user = User.find(1)
user.skip_reconfirmation!
If the username was changed to something else and has been forgotten, one possible way is to reset the password using Rails console with user ID 1 (in almost all the cases, the first user is the default admin account).
