Once MWS is successfully installed, you can access it by visiting http://localhost:8080 in a browser on the same computer.
On first start, a default user is created with username admin
and password 1234
. However, also by default, the server is only accessible to browsers on the same machine.
If you intend to make an MWS installation available on the Internet, the server should first be secured with the following steps:
- Change the administrator password
- Install HTTPS server certificates from an online certificate service like Let's Encrypt.
