I have installed the latest on premise version. But I am not able to login as a root. As a matter of fact, i dont recall configuring it during installation. How do you retrieve the root account's information?

UPDATE: I have updated the root password using the the mysql database using the instructions, but I am still not able to login to the controller.

Thanks
