403 error on first install of Wordpress

Question

Hi, have just installed Webinoly on a Digital Ocean droplet and set up my first WP domain using instructions from here

But when I access the domain, it prompts for login credentials, and I don't have any credentials, as none were asked for when installing. I tried the droplets user/pass but that just gives me a 403 forbidden.

So where do I find the logon details, so i can finish setting up Wordpress. TIA

cheers

Hi! 

You'll have to make the login details (link below) or disable it using the below command (I did for mine)
 

sudo httpauth -wp-admin=off

There's more about it in the offical docs :) Basically it's an extra layer of security when it comes to bots attacking the wp-login.
