Admin Website credential issue

[patrickkarc758]

Hi,

I am trying to get familiar with Magento and the Virtual Box image.

As far as I understand the admin credentials are the one which are shown in the CLI of the VBOx image at start. They dont work, neither I find  anything releated in the docs.

Can anyone indicate me a direction to look at for the credentials?

Thanks in advance!

Hello @patrickkarc758 

You can reset or get back your credentials by following two methods : 

• By doing forgot password on the admin screen and adding the email of your admin username
• You can create a new admin user directly from the command line, here is the command 
  php bin/magento admin:user:create --admin-user='tempadmin' --admin-password='tempadmin123' --admin-email='test@test.com' --admin-firstname='Admin' --admin-lastname='Admin'

Hope it helps !

Thanks for the hint.

I tried that in the /stack/magento folder, with sudo but without any success.

It states in green, that the user was created, but once I tried the credential on the WEBIF, it keeps me rejected.

May I ask if there is any initial admin user created or if there is anything documented which I can read?
