Please put the varriable in above command as your specific like

1. --admin-user=admin
2. --admin-password=your-password
3. [email protected]
4. --admin-firstname=firstname
5. --admin-lastname=lastname

after that you can login with the 'admin-username' and 'admin-password'.

If you have access to the server, you can execute the following SQL command to set your admin password:

UPDATE admin_user SET `password` = md5('YOUR_NEW_PASSWORD'), is_active = 1 WHERE `username` = 'YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME';
