Asking for retropie login on boot? (after update)
-
@cms3717 you're on the wrong forum then. That software has nothing to do with us, apart from they used our code as a base.

I just turned on my retropie and had this issue. I typed the login and password suggested and worked.
I was wondering if that is going to happen every time I turn my retropie on, if so how can I skip that without the login/password?
Thank guys very helpfull! -
@Marvos The answer is in the 1st page of this topic - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/18591/asking-for-retropie-login-on-boot-after-update/13. Or, the Docs.

Hello,
I have the same problem, I cannot enter the login and password.
every time he tells me incorrect login ....
how do you get into sudo-config ??
"at command prompt, type sudo raspi-config
select option 3 in menu (Boot Options)
select option B1 (Desktopp/CLI)
select option B2 (Console Autologin)"
thanks -

What user/password are you typing ? Maybe you changed the default password ?

@mitu hello,
just pi and Raspberry
I am a beginner, and I have just created my retropie.
I did my installation, put the roms, bios and I wanted to do an update and it happened this at launch.
I am blocked at login
I could redo everything from the start but I would prefer to find the solution to restart from the login request -
The default password is raspberry, not Raspberry.

@windg excuse me I made a typo in my post.
I wrote well in raspberry in retropie -

The default RetroPie image has user
pi
and passwordraspberry
. If you used that image to install and didn't change the password yourself (recommended), then the credentials should work. If they don't, then we can't help you - you either changed your default password or not using the RetroPie image. -
@mitu downloaded the retropie image on your website then install with win32 ... on my sd card.
retropie launched correctly then I went to setup retropie and asked for an update.
and at the reboot I had this problem.
that's all i touched ... i didn't try to change the password
I should have changed the password before doing an update ?? -
How are you entering the user password ? Can you describe it step by step ?
-
@mitu when he asked me for login, i plugged my keyboard into usb and type pi then enter
then he asks me for the password .. at that time when the small bar flashes after the word password, I can not write anything and I have to press twice to enter and be able to write raspberry.
but I have to do it quickly otherwise it will re-ask me for the login -
@shura-3275 When you're prompted for the password, just write the password, even if the terminal doesn't echo back the actual password - while you type your password nothing should appear on the screen, that's how it works.
So, atlogin
writepi
, then press Enter, when asked for password just writeraspberry
and then press Enter. -
@mitu ok thank you i will try and i will tell you the result
thank you so much

No, it should have logged you in automatically and started EmulationStation. Did you choose the 'Auto-login to Console' option in
raspi-config
? -
@mitu no i will
thank you again for your help and your patience
I have other requests to finish but I think I should go to another topic?
1- how to configure arcade buttons and joysticks?
2- when I enter the Master system console everything is blocked, I can not do anything and I am forced to turn off and on. -
Use
login: pi
password: raspberry
