Password not Working? 

Due to technical difficulties with the password databases many student, staff and faculty passwords have either been reset or expired.  The following steps will solve these problems: 

  • Novell Error:  Invalid Credentials

  • Incorrect Password

  • Password Expired

  • Unable to login into Vista.weber.edu

  • Unable to login into student mail

Step 1: Generating a Temporary Password

The first step needed is to generate a temporary password.  
To get a temporary password go to http://pepe.weber.edu and click on the link that says “Get your Wildcat ID”.

The following page requires you to put in your birthday and social security number.  They need to match the format provided (Birthday - dd/mm/yyyy; SSN - 777777777).  You may have to put your information in 2 to 3 times in order to push it through the system.

The next screen you may or may not see is the acceptable use policy.   Please read through this before continuing.  To proceed just click on the “I AGREE to the acceptable use policy.”

The next screen will provide you with your temporary password.  For convenience highlight and copy (CTRL + C) the temporary password.  At this point please return to http://pepe.weber.edu by typing it into the address bar or simply clicking the back arrow twice.

Step 2: Changing your Password

Return to the e-Weber portal put in your Wildcat ID and paste (CTRL + V) the temporary password.   

 

The next screen will tell you that your password has expired and that you need to change it. 

New Passwords must have

  • 1 Uppercase letter

  •  1 Lowercase letter

  •  1 Number

  •  At least 8 Characters in length

 

After typing your password correctly you may get this Error Screen.

This is GOOD! Just click where it says “click here” and retype your Wildcat ID and this time use the new password that you just setup. This should get you into your account.   If these steps do not work for you please contact Computing Support at (801) 626-7777.

Step 3: Verify that it works

Thank you for being patient with us through this upgrade process.
