# Logging In

Let's see how you can get started with <code class="expression">space.vars.SITENAME</code>.

## Windows

* On Logging in page: Once the installation is complete, <code class="expression">space.vars.SITENAME</code> will be started automatically if you are doing installation on windows machine and you will be re-directed to the Getting started page in the default web browser. If the <code class="expression">space.vars.SITENAME</code> is not started, you can start it manually as described [here](/opstech-docs/7.223/getting-started/start-or-stop-service.md).
* For launching the application, click on the link **Launch** <code class="expression">space.vars.SITENAME</code>. It will redirect to the login page.

  * username: admin
  * password: password

## Linux

* For Linux, once the installation is done, enter the URL as <http://localhost:8989/OIM/> in browser.
* Log in as username **admin** and password **password**.
* If you have configured <code class="expression">space.vars.SITENAME</code> for HTTPS, then enter the URL as <https://localhost:8443/OIM/> in browser.

## Set a New Password on First Login

* When a newly created user logs in for the first time, or when the default **admin** user logs in after installation, you will be prompted to update your password and will be automatically redirected to the password update screen.
* Please update your password in accordance with the defined password policy. For more details about password policy, refer to [Default Password Policy](/opstech-docs/7.223/manage/administrator/login-server-management.md#password-policy-configuration).
* This step is enforced to enhance the security of <code class="expression">space.vars.SITENAME</code> user accounts, as default passwords may be vulnerable to unauthorized access. Setting a strong, unique password ensures that only the intended user can access the account.
