I am new to using OpenFire but ran into a bit of problem. After struggling to log into the admin console with the default ‘admin’ user I then created a new user. But after I restarted OpenFire I cannot login with either admin or the new account which I have created.
As the announcement on top of the forums goes, you should restart Openfire right after the initial setup is done without pressing Login to Admin Console button. So i suggest to go through a setup once again, specify your admin password, do not login. Restart Openfire, launch Admin Console page and try to login with user admin and your password.
