Unable to reset OpenLiteSpeed WebAdmin Console password

I've made multiple attempts via both /usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/admpass.sh and /usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/lsup.sh -a, always receiving the confirmation:

Administrator's username/password is updated successfully!

But attempting to log in produces an error:

Invalid credentials.

Is there another way to do this?

Try opening up the access rights to htpasswd, e.g.

chmod 644 /usr/local/lsws/admin/conf/htpasswd

I had the same problem with a recent install. Check your server error log? Mine revealed a permission problem:

[NOTICE] [(serverip):51533:HTTP2-45#_AdminVHost] [STDERR] PHP Warning:  fopen(/usr/local/lsws/admin/conf/htpasswd): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /usr/local/lsws/admin/html.open/lib/CAuthorizer.php on line 227

Check if your password is updated on file here, make sure it shows different string every time you run the "admpass.sh" script.

cat /usr/local/lsws/admin/conf/htpasswd

Can you also share how you install the openlitespeed and which version?

Best
