The wallet password is a protection at file level - it has nothing to do with SSL passwords, or PKI passwords. I don't see you have any reference to those, either, btw.

Sure you have the correct password? It's the one you're asked to give (twice) when creating the wallet.

I have no clue where it is stored, and how to erase it.
