Web Interface Repeatedly Prompts for Login

I just installed nagiosxi using the centOS vmware package. I am trying to login to the web interface for the first time. It constantly prompts me for the username and password. I verified the time is the same on the nagios server and the client I am using to access the web interface. I have tried logging in as nagiosadmin with password nagiosxi, as well as root, and the password I chose during the initial setup. Any thoughts?

If you are having login issues, you may try resetting your password by running in terminal:

Code: Select all

# cd /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts
# ./reset_nagiosadmin_password.php --password=<newpassword>
where <newpassword> is your new password.

Then you can try to log in again:

In XI: http://<your_IP_address>/nagiosxi
In Core: http://<your_IP_address>/nagios

I tried that, but again it continues to prompt me.
