Web interface login

Hello
I finally got Graylog up and running after rebuild. But I can’t log into the Web-interface. I use admin and the secret password the 64 characters. If that is right not working. Let me know.

Hello @studioman5150

This could be a few different issues, Can you show the Graylog Configuration file?

what do you need to see in the configuration file. Can’t copy the who file

sorry the whole file

This should help, just replace personal info.

 cat /etc/graylog/server/server.conf | egrep -v "^\s*(#|$)"

Try something easy for admin password ,you can always change it later.

echo -n password123| sha256sum
[root@graylog graylog]# echo -n password123| sha256sum

[root@graylog graylog]#

Ensure you only copy the hash NOT “-”,

root_password_sha2 =  ef92b778bafe771e89245b89ecbc08a44a4e166c06659911881f383d4473e94f

Restart Graylog service

systemctl restart graylog-server

The rest looks good, if the only issue is with Password for admin, should be a easy fix as I showed above.

I did that but I can try again.

Check Graylog’s log file.

tail -f /var/log/graylog-server/server.log
