Just finished a Perfect Server Automated ISPConfig 3 Installation on Ubuntu 22.04. There were no reported issues during installation. However, for some reason i cannot login with given admin password ("Username or Password wrong.") (MySQL password, by contrast, works fine) Any idea how could I circumvent this? All hints are highly appreciated...

I tried this as a first means, but i didn't help. I assume that dbispconfig.sys_user still uses MD5 for hashing pw? (as instructions were few years old "UPDATE sys_user SET passwort = md5('Admin123') WHERE username = 'admin';") Also tried to remove pw completely, but login screen doesn't allow pws shorter than 1 char. re-installation returned error as "The server already has ISPConfig installed." Or maybe there is some way to force re-installation?
if this is vm, just delete it and create new one. If this is a machine, you may want to reinstall the OS afresh. That is if you want to use ISPConfig Auto Installer in a clean setup. Otherwise, you can run ISPConfig uninstall.php but this of course will not be a clean setup.
ISPConfig does not use md5 anymore for more than 10 - 15 years, but it still supports it. Which means that when you insert a password in md5 format for legacy reasons, then this will work, but you should set a new password from within ISPConfig afterwards to get a secure encryption for the hash.
I just ended up to wipe and reinstall the whole server, this time it worked as expected. Thank you guys for your efforts, really appreciate it!!
