Can't login in backend after installing the October CMS successfully

[JKChen]

When I try to login ”http://127.0.0.1/october/backend/backend/auth/signin“ with correct account & password after installing the October CMS successfully,I get an error of ”A user was not found with the given credentials.“,and I find that there is no record in the table of backend_users.
How can i fix it? Looking forward for your help.Thanks.

Try seeding the backend_users table with a default user - the seed file can be found here, then just login with admin admin and change the user details from the CMS backend

If the migration process fails for whatever reason, the seed scripts can get skipped. To fix it you can rebuild the entire database with these commands:

php artisan october:down
php artisan october:up

If you used the installer, you should reinstall with no extra plugins.

Thanks for your reply.I‘ll try.

I am facing similar issue where backend login works on sub-domains but for main domain it shows no errors or message. I can not login to backend

@samargurjar please make your own issue with a detailed report of what your setup is and what is going wrong instead of adding onto this separate issue that is unlikely to have anything to do with your current problem.

after migration, system displays the password it has defined.
"\Backend\Database\Seeds\DatabaseSeeder reported:

• The following password has been automatically generated for the "admin" account: xxxxxxx"

this is the password, not the one we have entered before...
:/
after login with this "imposed" password, change it as you wish.

@cesarmarinhorj This is being fixed as part of #5481.
