Can't login after fresh install (Debian/Ubuntu package install)

I cannot log in with the default admin:admin. I’ve tried the rake db:seed suggestion (running as user openproject), too, but that returns the error

rake aborted!
No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb, Rakefile.rb)
@ @
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

What am I missing? How do I log in so I can start configuring projects?

Follow-up: the output from [openprojecthost] RAILS_ENV=“production” ./bin/rake db:seed@ yields:

*** Seeding admin user
@ ***** No need to seed an admin as there already is one.@

Still no luck getting a login. How can I either delete the existing admin account, or find some other way to log in?

Followed the directions in this post https://community.openproject.com/topics/1052, but discovered a typo:

To reset the admin (or any user) password from the command line:

  1. Check if you have enabled the ‘forget password’ function if activated you can find a link for password reset on the login page or in the login dropdown.
  1. If not enabled you can enable this function in the rails console by running the following commands:
    RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails c
    Setting.lost_password="1"
  1. Change the users password with rails console. This is not recommended because it is possible that the plain password is stored in the history of the console.
    RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails c
    u = User.find_by_login "your login name" (eg. u = User.find_by_login "admin")
    u.password=u.password_confirmation='my new password'
    u.save! <— note the “!”. The post linked above omits the “!”, and the console will return “false”.
