I've been struggling with logging into Zabbix using the standard credentials ('Admin' with the password 'zabbix'). Despite double-checking my entries, I keep getting the 'Incorrect username or password or account is temporarily locked' error. Has anyone experienced this issue before and can offer some guidance?

Just a tip; Zabbix usernames are case sensitive. I've had many login issues just from mistyping capitalization. Double-check that you're correctly capitalizing everything!
Yeah, usernames are case sensitive in Zabbix. It's one of those things that can trip you up pretty easily.
Have you enabled LDAP? I learned the hard way that after you log out, the default 'Admin' account often won't work anymore. It’s super easy to overlook that warning. There's a workaround in the database that might help; check the Zabbix Knowledge Base. I usually keep a second browser tab open to test LDAP before I log out completely.
Make sure to check the logs for any relevant entries. They can give you clues about what's going wrong when you try to log in.
Thanks, I'll definitely look into that!
