Encrypting and Decrypting Database.yml

The database.yml file contains passwords to Console components including its MySQL database. Console automatically encrypts these passwords so that they are not stored in plain text. Console also supports two rake tasks to encrypt or decrypt all passwords in the file.

If you made manual changes to the database.yml file, you can run the following command to encrypt all unencrypted passwords:
# asctl console:rake aspera:db:encrypt_database_passwords
If you want to see the passwords in plain text, you can run the following command to decrypt all encrypted passwords:
# asctl console:rake aspera:db:decrypt_database_passwords
