If this is a fresh install of Kentico you can log in with administrator as the username and a blank password.

If you need to reset an admin password check this documentation out. Look in the "Recovering administrator password" section.

Oh okay, do you have access over database? if yes then check with below query. select * from CMS_EventLog ORDER BY EventTime desc

To see the event log details:

you can see the detailed error information in EventDescription column.

Thanks

Hi, the event log error description is like this : "Message: Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that, < machineKey > configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster." Can you explain whats the error? Thanks
