vSphere Data Protection 5.1 - Credentials

After installing the appliance and powering it on, i get to the web-URL where the user root is mandatory.

It says in the documentation ( the ones I have found ) that I have set an appliance password during creation of the VM - that is not so.

How do I proceed with finding the appliance password, when i have not entered it anywhere.

Have tried installing 3 times from scratch wihtout setting a root / aplliance password ?!?
