Can't login with user created

Good morning friends,

I have a problem, I installed gvmd again because my kali linux crashed 2 days ago and I made a clean install of everything. I followed the same steps I did with my last installation but I can’t login even with my user created. I tried to create different users but the only one that doesnt appear as wrong is admin:admin but It won’t log in. It says the password or user is wrong.

This is what my configuration looks like:


I hope you guys can help me out. Thank you in advance.

Seems that you missed the password during the installation process. During the Kali GVM installation, when you use the command gvm-setup, for the first time only, the admin password is displayed at the end of that process. However, it seems you are showing the output from gvm-setup after it has already been run at least once.

Since you missed the password, you will have to reset the password. You can also find several posts outlining how to reset an admin/user password.

sudo -E -u _gvm gvmd --user=admin --new-password=<new-password>
