Bitnami (entire stack - apache/mysql/php) installs have a default 'admin' level user (should be user ID 2 in mysql mdl_user table) with a default password ... don't think you are prompted to change.
You could use the mysql client in Bitnami and using the credentials for DB (user/password) seen in config.php of moodle code, query the DB for moodle for id 2:

select * from mdl_user where id='2';

You won't see the password in clear text, but would be able to see what the login is.


Also, mind sharing how you added a user? And the line you added to your config.php file to attempt to make that new user an admin level user?

"install took hours" might be a clue ... USB anything will be slower ... period ... and there are timeout settings in mysql as well as php/apache that could come into play.

Have enough space on drive for the machine being used to put the bitnami install there as opposed to a USB device?
