Cannot login

New Pleskian
I downloaded and burned the Ubuntu ISO from the parallels website. Booted from the CD, installation failed. It didn't seem to like that I didn't have a hostname specified. Fixed that, still wouldn't work. I then used the autoinstall script which finally seemed to work after I had to select every package to install. At first I tried to not install mailman, that apparently was a bad idea. Anyways, it seems to be installed however I still received an error that I cannot seem to locate in the log. Supposedly a package wasn't installed correctly.

My problem now is that I can get to the Plesk login screen, but I do not know the admin password. Using the --show-password gives me six character string with 3 diamonds in it. What do I do now? This appears to be encoded or encrypted???

Ubuntu 14.04
Plesk 12
 
Set up new admin password with

# /usr/local/psa/bin/init_conf --set-admin-password -passwd new_password
