OSGi web console admin password does not take effect

I changed the OSGI web console user and password following the guidelines below:
 

During the startup process, when I restart the instance and try to access http://localhost:4502/system/console, I can still log on with the default username and password, even though these have been changed.

Hi ​@anasustic ,
Those credentials are intended just as a fallback for the Felix console.
The Felix credentials can be used when repository authentication is unavailable, for example: repository down, startup/shutdown window, Sling authentication not available yet.
 

To test that your new OSGi password actually works
Stop AEM.
Start it again.
During early startup (before the repository is fully ready), try:
http://localhost:4502/system/console
You may find that the new Felix credentials work there.
 

Please refer: 


Thanks!
