TLDR tobsowo struggled to switch to the Chatwoot User due to a password issue. v_shnu clarified that no default password is set and provided a sequence of commands to resolve the problem.

After switching to the Chatwoot User and making changes to the .env file. I need to restart cwctl -r but changing to root is not possible using sudo su because I do not have a password for Chatwoot User to allow me switch.

Anyone has an idea what tye default password for Chatwoot User is?

You should be able to do cwctl commands as Chatwoot user by using sudo.
