Hi,

I’m setting up the wowza engine into the google cloud as per the instructions provided in the link [https://www.wowza.com/forums/content…Compute-Engine](https://www.wowza.com/forums/content....Compute-Engine)

I chose (Both) packages during the setup.

I login to my enginemanager in the gcloud?

When I use this ([http://146.148.76.1:8088/enginemanager/ftu/welcome.htm](http://146.148.76.1:8088/enginemanager/ftu/welcome.htm)) from gcloud my username and password don’t work.

But,

When I use this ([http://localhost:8088/enginemanager/login.htm](http://localhost:8088/enginemanager/login.htm)) my username and password works fine.

Please help.

Thanks,

Marvin Antoine

Hello Marvin,

Assuming you followed the guide and configured everything correctly, please take a look at the “[Test the Instance](https://www.wowza.com/docs/set-up-wowza-streaming-engine-on-google-cloud-platform#test)” section of the guide for logging in.

Regards,

Salvadore

According to the guide, once the setup is complete you will need to:

1: In a new browser window, go to http://:8088/login.htm

2: Sign in to Wowza Streaming Engine Manager. The default username is wowza and the default password is the Google Compute Engine instance ID (for example, 248889107416955973). To get your instance ID, use the SSH from the Browser feature in the console to connect to your instance, and then enter the following command line:

```auto
curl http://metadata/computeMetadata/v1/instance/id -H "X-Google-Metadata-Request: True"

```

3: Follow the [playback instructions](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-video-on-demand-streaming#playback_wms4) to play the installed sample.mp4 video file using the test players in Streaming Engine Manager.

I hope this answers your question.

Hi,

I moved this thread to the correct sub-forum, since it looks like the topic is in regards to Wowza Streaming Engine in the Cloud (vs Wowza Streaming Cloud product).

Thanks for the quick response.

Everything works, but I can’t login. It keeps saying my username or password is wrong.

I’m using the same password I used when I installed it on my local driver. ([http://localhost:8088/enginemanager/login.htm](http://localhost:8088/enginemanager/login.htm))

After installing it on the cloud ([http://146.148.76.1:8088/enginemanager/ftu/welcome.htm](http://146.148.76.1:8088/enginemanager/ftu/welcome.htm)) I never got an option to setup a username and password.

I found it.

Thanks Salvadore
