Обсуждение: New installation woes

I have just installed pgAdmin4 V9.9.1 on my Rocky Linux 9 laptop using dnf.
The install looked to be successful but when I fire up pgAdmin4 in
either desktop or web mode, it wants an email address and password.
The installation did not include /usr/pgadmin4/bin/setup-pgadmin.sh and
/usr/pgadmin4/bin/setup-web.sh did not create an account.
No known combination of email and password is accepted.

How do I get past square one?

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen

I tried installing back in July but due to issues there and elsewhere, wound up uninstalling and reinstalling pgAdmin.
If, as you suggest, there are bits left over, what can I do to recover/destroy them?
I am not clear as to what "the email associated with your account" means.
Which account? If I have multiple emails on the same server, does it matter which one I use?
If Postresql is on one machine and pgAdmin is on another, is anything different?
