Hi are you using sandbox? If so

username: maria_dev password maria_dev If you want to log in as admin, ssh into your box and issue ambari-admin-password-reset and enter password of your choice it will then restart ambari and then you can log in as admin using password you set.

If you are on HDP 2.6.x the login using credentials: root / hadoop and you get the prompt

Did you run this command after

ambari-admin-password-reset
