Hi Christian,

thank you for answering.
I could change the admin password eventually but for me the problem was that there is no .basexperm file in basex web application unless you create a new user (so a .basexper file is automatically created as well) and after you change manually the admin MD5 hash value (supposing that this is the right procedure).
I was also wondering if there is a way to make available the /restxq of my basex web application to anyone on the web without being requested username and password.

Thank you.

Hi Marco,

have you also copied your user permissions file, as described in our Wiki [1]?

Best,
Christian
