Password Change - developer workplace

Question

Recently, my organization requested that I change my domain password, since this, I am no longer able to connect to my local Developer workplace install.
Can someone shed some light on how to get around this problem?

Hello,
"com.sap.dbtech.jdbc.exceptions.DatabaseException: -4008: Unknown user name/password combination"
-> Please update with output of the SQL statement 'select * from users'
    The database schema by default installation is SAP<SAPSID>DB.
     Did you change the password of the SAP<SAPSID>DB user? Check, if you could connect as SAP<SAPSID>DB user:
      dbmcli -d <DBSID> -u control,<pw>
    dbmcli on <DBSID> >sql_connect SAP<SAPSID>DB, <pwd>
   dbmcli on <DBSID> >exit
-> Developer workplace installation guide has also information about configtool.
    Java applications manage the connection information for the database in the Secure Store.                                 
     You could reset password with configtool, from SecureStore & fild jdbc/pool/<SID>/Password
-> The problem can be solved using the Visual Administrator or by a manual modification of the data-sources.xml file.
     For example, the Visual Administrator consists in the following steps:
          Open the Visual Administrator and select Server 0, then Services, then JDBC Connector.
          Select the appropriate DataSource within the Runtime tab on the right.
          Modify the user and/or password field(s).
          After modification press Save. The Visual Administrator will prompt you for application redeployment. After confirming this, you should be able to get the connection from the database.
-> Are you SAP customer? If you are SAP customer, please review the SAP note 25591, if you would like to change the database user's passwords in future.
