KNIME server user password on AWS

Hello, we have a KNIME Small instance running on AWS, and I’ve ssh’ed in to try to stop the service. I’ve done this before but a very long time ago but I don’t recall running into this issue.

I’m trying to run sudo systemctl stop knime-server.service
and being requested a [sudo] password for knime:

I thought this was the AWS instanceID as per the server documentation, but that is being rejected. What password is it looking for?

The systemctl needs to be run as the ubuntu user. The knime user on those images does not have sudo access or and elevated privileges.

Anything you need to do to the OS should use the ubuntu user, for anything KNIME related use the knime user.
