Perforce password (P4PASSWD) invalid or unset.

Any idea how to pass password over command line to login perforce?

You can use following command to login perforce over command line…
p4 -p -u Abinash_Misra -P sync //depot/branchname/…

You can provide passwords to the Perforce server in one of three ways:

1. Set the environment or registry variable P4PASSWD to the password value;

2. Create a setting for P4PASSWD within the P4CONFIG file;

3. Use the -P password flag on the Perforce client command line, for example:
p4 -u ida -P idaspassword sync
