TIBCO Scribe Insight

Description
Issue: I used the InternalDB utility to change the SCRIBE user password on the Scribe Internal database. The change was successful on the TIBCO Scribe® Insight server, but the Workstation install no longer connects. The following error displays when I launch the Workbench:
Failed to initialize the internal database: Error retrieving the product id from the db
Resolution
The Workstation installation stores the DSN and credentials during the installation process. When the SCRIBE user password is changed post-installation, you need to uninstall the TIBCO Scribe® Insight Workstation and reinstall the Workstation to store the new credentials:
Uninstall TIBCO Scribe® Insight adapters
Uninstall TIBCO Scribe® Insight.
Delete the ScribeInternal_MS system DSN
Reinstall TIBCO Scribe® Insight - Workstation
Issue/Introduction
After changing the SCRIBE user, the Workbench launches successfully on the Scribe server, but the Workstation install no longer connects.
