Wordpress /wp-admin won't allow me to login after setup

I created a droplet with one-click install Wordpress.

Worked like a charm, logging into server with ssh client, no problem. Says admin password to Wordpress at first login.

Opening my site in browser, logging into setup with admin and password. Works without a problem. Creates user. Tries to login with new user. Won’t let me. Incorrect user or password. No, it’s not.

Re-done the entire install and get the same issue every time. Just can’t access dashboard.
