I've installed ovirt several times on a fresh machine from scratch. I've had no
problems with the install however I'm unable to login via the web console using the
assigned password entered at the time of the install. On the last 3 tries I've kept
the password simple to insure that I was not entering the assigned password incorrectly.
I continued tp get with each install the message:
Unable to log in. Verify your login information or contact the system administrator.
I've checked the install log for errors and not found any. While trying to keep the
password simple I was warned about the simplicity password but decided to continue because
of previous attempts were not successful. are there any addtitional log that I can view
to help with this issue?
Perhaps check /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log.
Perhaps try resetting your password with 'ovirt-aaa-jdbc-tool', e.g.:

Perhaps try logging in with some simple script running from inside the
engine machine, to make sure it's not a network/browser/whatever
issue. See here some examples:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/tree/master/sdk/examples
You can try one of the simpler/shorter ones that include
'sdk.Connection', e.g. list_tags.py . Download it, edit as needed,
copy to the engine machine. It expects a file 'ca.pem' in the current
directory, which you can copy from /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem . Then
try to run it there.
Is there possibly a bug in the install process that has a work
around?
I am not aware of such a bug. It does not mean that there are none, of
course :-).
Good luck and Best regards,
