Missing encrypted_nimi_password script

Issue/Introduction

Scripts encrypted_nimi_password.sh and encrypted_nimi_password.bat are missing in conf directory.

Why ?

Environment

Release Automation 7.4 and higher version

Resolution

Yes encrypt_nimi_password scripts have been removed and replaced by encrypt_password since version 6.7.4 :
 
Before 6.7.4 there are 2 tools for encryption :

-rwxrwx---  1 root root       458 Feb 11  2020 encrypt_nimi_password.bat
-rwxrwx---  1 root root       453 Feb 11  2020 encrypt_nimi_password.sh
-rwxrwx---  1 root root       470 Feb 11  2020 encrypt_password.bat
-rwxrwx---  1 root root       460 Feb 11  2020 encrypt_password.sh

 

Starting 6.7.4, there is only encrypt_password tool which combines the 2 tools. 

-rwxrwx---  1 root root       285 Jan 11 15:21 encrypt_password.bat
-rwxrwx---  1 root root       262 Jan 11 15:21 encrypt_password.sh

 

So starting Nolio 6.7.4 you should use scripts/encrypt_password to encrypt the passwords.

So the encrypted passwords in nimi_config.xml could be encrypted with encrypt_password script starting version 6.7.4
