Login Problem - Docker Compose - unable to login

Graylog Central (peer support)
1

Hi,
I used the latest docker compose in github docker compose
I use open-core section of docker-compose above.
I replaced GRAYLOG_DATANODE_PASSWORD_SECRET and GRAYLOG_DATANODE_ROOT_PASSWORD_SHA2 as instructed in datanode and graylog section.
I spin up using docker-compose up -d
It is up in http://localhost:9000. I login using the password (I tried both value of password as clear text and as hash value) and it still fails.
I ssh into the container to check the /run/secret/ and there is no value there.
I confused on how to login. Please help
datanode:

I am also facing the same problem, but I installed mine on Ubuntu server!

What are y’all seeing? What do the docker logs (or local logs) say?

I believe you have to setup the datanode first before you can use graylog and the info about that is in the logs (either via docker logs, or the local log).

I just spun up the compose file and this is what i’m seeing:

first time setup

It seems you are starting Graylog for the first time. To set up a fresh install, a setup interface has
been started. You must log in to it to perform the initial configuration and continue.
Initial configuration is accessible at 0.0.0.0:9000, with username 'admin' and password 'pdekzAtzRz'.

From there i’m brought through a workflow for setting up datanode (which is used instead of vanilla OpenSearch)

Hi Thanks for the reply.
I tried your suggestion to run docker logs
Then I get to see username & password that are provided; however this is NOT in the README.md thus I kept entering the password that i created using sha (as instructed) and graylog kept refusing me.
Thank you for your reply. Please fix the readme
