Remove the config.xml for Security: In the Jenkins home directory, locate the config.xml file. Open it in a text editor and search for the <useSecurity> tag. Change the value to false: xml Copy code <useSecurity>false</useSecurity> File will look like below- Save the file and exit. Start Jenkins: Start Jenkins again (sudo service jenkins start for Linux). Jenkins should now start without asking for a login, and you can create a new user or reset the credentials. Re-enable Security: Once you've logged in and set up new credentials, go back to the config.xml file. Set <useSecurity> back to true and restart Jenkins to enable security again.
