Hi all! Just installed Fedora from Parallels wizard and found out that Fedora's login screen asks me to provide password from Parallels user, which I do not know, btw. Does anybody know what is the password for Parallels Linux (Fedora 26) user ?
Please read the message: "you are required to change your password" > just specify any preferred secured password. I just downloaded our Fedora Arm64 appliance myself: Entered a new password: Confirmed the same password > I'm in:
Hi @Bugsend, as far as I remember our Linux appliances ask to specify password on initial boot. We do not secure free appliances with any custom passwords.
Your (Parallels) packaging of simple install Fedora Linux does not provide a way of setting password!!! The first time you start up after installing Fedora image requires a an existing password, does not allow to set an initial password!! For the Ubuntu image this works, but not for the Fedora image.
To be very clear: - Click "+" in "Control Center". - Choose the "Fedora download + install". - Wait for download to complete. - When download is done the image is run and you end up with a password dialog containing the text "New Password". This makes it look like you can set an initial new password since this is the first time the image is run. BUT NO! Entering any password fails with the message "You are required to change the password immediately", and here you are at a never ending loop. Whatever you write gets you back here with an error. It is completely impossible to get past this. The Ubuntu image works the same, but there the first password entered becomes the new password, and then you are logged in and desktop starts. But not for Fedora, there you are completely stuck.
I'm running into the same issue with the Ubuntu VM. I tried the usual placeholders: `password`, `changeme`. Entering a random password gives me "BAD PASSWORD: The password fails the dictionary check - it is based on a dictionary word" I'm stuck as well.
Hey @EricS39, please specify a new complex password. We do not secure free appliances with any custom passwords.
Wrong! Yes, you do! I installed Fedora and have the same issue. Presented with a login screen where I have to enter password. What gives? Please fix this!!!
