Title: Login to CWP on a server with no root password and only ssh keys
Post by: vineethjose on May 27, 2020, 07:45:40 PM

I have a linux server in aws ec2 which doesn't have a root password, just the ssh keys. centOS 7.

When I install CentOS web panel, it asks for the root password.

How to resolve this ? Should I create a root password? It invalidates the whole purpose of SSH keys.

Log into SSH and set the root password.  YOu will need the root password to log into CWP Admin
