πŸ” How to Find Your Initial WordPress Admin Password (Bitnami EC2)

When you launch a Bitnami WordPress instance on AWS, it auto-generates the admin password and stores it safely on your server.

πŸͺœ Step-by-Step:

  1. SSH into your EC2 instance:

    ssh -i /path/to/your-key.pem bitnami@your-ec2-ip
    
  2. Run this command to get the password:

    sudo cat /opt/bitnami/credentials/credentials
    
  3. You’ll see output like:

    mysql_root_password = yourdbpassword
    wordpress_application_password = yourwpadminpassword
    
  4. Copy the wordpress_application_passwordβ€”that’s your golden ticket! 🎟️


🏁 Now Log in to WordPress

  1. Open your site:

    http://your-ec2-ip/wp-admin
    
  2. Login with:

    • Username: user
    • Password: (the one you just found)

βœ… You’re in! Time to rule your WordPress kingdom πŸ‘‘
