Base64 password contains + and = characters which break HammerDB 4.12's TCL diset command argument parsing. Changed to hex encoding which produces alphanumeric-only output across all three components that share the SuperUserPassword: - HammerDBExecutor - PostgreSQLServerConfiguration - SysbenchExecutor All three must use the same encoding since they share the same PostgreSQL credential. This has been the sole cause of HammerDB parse failures since Mar 16 (~1700 errors/day). Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
