When I followed these instructions, the searchblox application would not come back up. It also did not throw any errors. I reset everything and did it again. This time leaving a space after the apikey parameter, and everything came up and I was able to recover /reset the admin password.

<config password="the password hash " apikey="the api hash" > worked for me.
