Cannot login to Neo4j - AWS EC2 Marketplace

So I am starting up a new neo4j instance in aws ec2 using neo4j community edition from the aws marketplace: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B071P26C9D

The machine comes up and I set up an elastic public IP. However, when I try logging in with the default credentials neo4j/neo4j through the web neo4j browser, I get an invalid credential error.

Anyone know if the creds are different when using the marketplace ami?

I have tried: 1. Stopping neo4j service 2. Deleting auth file 3. Starting the neo4j service Still same result. I also tried specifying the password by using the neo4j-admin set-initial-password command. No luck. – Josh Starrett

Well, this is kinda embarrassing. But I just realized that there is a tab labeled usage instructions under the ec2 instance. The text under the tab instructs me to use the instance id of the ec2 instance as the default password and that worked.
