Default root pass? #49
Comments
There is no default root password, you can change it with passwd though WSL Ver: You check the zip name you downloaded from github. |
The problem could not be confirmed in my environment. |
Never had a problem with password.. Close? |
I encountered this issue, following the instruction to set password, and the password was verified to be wrong. And, I used the latest version:18100800 on windows 10 1809.
windows dos-prompt (admin) :
arch.exe console :
Thank you for any help you can provide. |
you set the password of root not john |
I updated the wiki because there was a deficiency in the explanation... Please set the default user password separately from the root password. |
I'm back and thanks for all the help from community. I followed the new wiki, and created the password for both root and user, but still can't solve the issue. I tried to search about "wheel" and find the instruction here ( https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_OpenStack_Platform/2/html/Getting_Started_Guide/ch02s03.html ) can approve my user password, The commands there are somewhat different, like : Actually I tried yuk7 another project "wsldl" and build ubuntu 18.04, but add a line at /etc/sudoers (searched from internet), like this : (require to change file "sudoers" to be writable by "chmod u+w sudoers") Now I find both the builds of ubuntu and arch can run together. so I'm a happy user to learn arch linux things now. |
