Not able to get Admin console using Keycloak 26.0.6 #35477

If the server is started for the first time without setting the bootstrap environement variables, the database will be initialized without creating the bootstrap admin. They have to be set for the first time a start command is run. |

Thank you very much, this comment has been very helpful to me 👍 |

I encountered this same problem. In logs you should find message like "INFO [org.keycloak.services] (main) KC-SERVICES0077: Created temporary admin user with username admin" |
|
This is just the expected behavior of the bootstrap-admin command. What's not clear from your description or the original one is why the environment variable seems not to be picked up for the initial start of the server - were the appropriate environment vairables set the first time you started the server from a clean database state? |

"What's not clear from your description or the original one is why the environment variable seems not to be picked up for the initial start of the server " "were the appropriate environment vairables set the first time you started the server from a clean database state?" *when the message with missing variables appear in logs, I setup them as environment variables |
That's me :)
What issue? A deprecation notice? Those are expected to continue to work until support is removed. |
Sorry, I didn't know :P
Well, when I started kc and go to website localhost:8080, I got message like this: To create the temporary administrative user open http://localhost:8080/, or set the environment variables KEYCLOAK_ADMIN and KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD when starting the server.' funny thing - there were no fields/buttons to create new acc for admin. |

thanks! 👍 |

"To create the temporary administrative user open http://localhost:8080/, or set the environment variables KEYCLOAK_ADMIN and KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD when starting the server." I don't believe there was any release of keycloak that had this combination of wording. Once the message said temporary, the variables referenced the KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN ones. Are you doing something with a custom theme? An issue is needed here as the suggestion even in main to use the env variables won't work - it is too late because they are only used when the master realm is created, which would have already happened. |

I’ve been facing the same issue for the past week. In older tutorials, I noticed the use of the KEYCLOAK_ADMIN variable for setting up the admin credentials. However, in the latest Keycloak version (26.0.7), the documentation specifies using KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_USERNAME= and KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_PASSWORD= when starting the server. Here’s the command I am using on a Windows machine: Also I have seen this in the log - 2024-12-09 07:03:44,025 INFO [org.keycloak.services] (main) KC-SERVICES0050: Initializing master realm Still the credentials are not working, it says invalid username or password. |

The issue is resolved. The problem is with the command I used - cmd /C "set KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_USERNAME=admin && set KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin && C:\eMAROffline\keycloak\bin\kc.bat start-dev --log=console --log-console-level=info". As I am setting environment variables and running keycloak in same command. The variables are not yet visible to the keycloak. I used this command instead & it is working fine. I am able to login to keycloak console. kc.bat start-dev --bootstrap-admin-username admin --bootstrap-admin-password admin123 |

Try using 127.0.0.1:8080 instead of localhost:8080 |
|
the correct one |
|
makes a big difference :-) it worked. |
|
What a weird and unconventional solution for something that is supposedly the first step of every keycloak admin, thanks for your input. |
|
I faced same issue with keycloak 26.0.7 while setting it on RHEL server. This issue chain here helped me. As suggested, I removed existing keycloak folder, unziped another set and executed below commands. kc.sh start-dev --bootstrap-admin-username $KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_USERNAME --bootstrap-admin-password $KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_PASSWORD |
|
That worked for me!!! thank you |
|
I ran the same issue, however, in my case, I was attempting to access it using the docker-compose file. These are the environment variables in my docker-compose.yml : Then I exported them using the following command in my terminal : Just so you know, you need to set the environment variable before spinning up the keycloak container, because the credentials will be set during the container first initialization. Once the container is fully operational, the logs should show you the following result.
This is the version I'm currently using |

Heyy , so i faced a similar thing . What i did was delete the keycloak folder and then set the environment variables for admin and password. |

I get this error: WARN [org.keycloak.events] (executor-thread-2) type="LOGIN_ERROR", realmId="fbc084de-1176-4c33-9176-78af4b6db462", realmName="master", clientId="null", userId="null", ipAddress="185.100.244.59", error="ssl_required" |

Hi @Iykechuks11 , It looks like your realm "master" is expecting all connections to be done via https only. Assuming you are doing this in development, if you want to access UI , then you can configure your master realm to use "none" as your Require SSL mode. This should probably allow you to access the Keycloak GUI. |

I pulled bitnami/keycloak:26.2.5-debian-12-r3 and customized it by injecting the internal libraries. The build was success in Docker and also in Docker compose. Error: And facing issues with the admin page login. Please suggest. |

@pranchalmishra11 please start a new discussion. More than likely this is a configuration issue. |

In my case, I managed to solve the login issue by escaping the $ character in the password variable in the .env file. I'm deploying Keycloak in a docker container via docker compose. When inspecting the container environment variables I noticed that The solution is to escape the $ character such as |

I was unable to log into the admin console of keycloak. I've checked the environment variables and was confused, because they existed, just like they did in another working deployment. Got this error: invalid_user_credentials It turns out that I had the character "ö" in a password, which is a non-ascii character. I removed that character and was able to login afterwards. |

There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
Hi, i am completely new to this Keycloak, i have installed keycloak latest version in my local windows machine with quarkus distribution, using the following command-: kc.bat start-dev, i started the server, also added the following ENV variables with values against my account user in the windows system-:
KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin123
But still the issue is that when i m hittng the localhost:8080/ end point it is asking me to create temporary administrative user-: following is the message i see on web page-:
You will need local access to create the temporary administrative user.
To create the temporary administrative user open http://localhost:8080/, or set the environment variables KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_USERNAME and KC_BOOTSTRAP_ADMIN_PASSWORD when starting the server.
Can anyone point out where i am going wrong?
