To save all the details, here is one way to fix the problem:
-If you're an amateur Linux server admin like me, you probably have Ubuntu (or something similar IE Debian) with a GUI. Go into the GUI and open the web browser to "localhost:8000" this somehow forces the initial "admin - changeme" login prompt to appear.
If this doesn't work or another fix is in, post it!
Additional Notes:
-This may be due to DNS but, that is doubtful.
-Tried 192.168.x.x:8000 to no avail
-tried multiple browsers
