Docker installation:

1 - Connect to mongoDB container: docker exec -it <container ID> bash

2 - Connect to mongo DataBase: mongo -u xray --authenticationDatabase xray --authenticationMechanism SCRAM-SHA-1 -p password (when using the default DB (not externalized DB) the schema name is 'xray')

3 - Switch to Xray DB : use xray

4 - Change admin password : db.getCollection('users').update({name: "admin"},{$set: {password:"SaltedPassword"}});

The default Xray Admin password is this Salted Password: ""qCjYNYARDMbIOcYf6fAJYEI04vAeeJjSy/WIfNv1LV0=""
