As far as I know you can't define an admin user which is stored in db/datastore instead.

Just like NodeBB is doing it with their official hosting.

Nobbic mimick it to generate admin user/pass, look here:

I found a solution.

Its working with this command:

./nodebb setup '{ "url": "http://localhost:4568", "secret": "27b3b80b-5bcb-4bcb-bd81-da24bbfd7bzz", "database": "mongo", "mongo": { "host": "127.0.0.1", "port": "27017", "username": "bXSJ3bA23V9uX7ZD", "password": "3qQ5NRsxwaHk8DIt", "database": "nodebb2", "uri": "" }, "port": "4568", "admin:username": "admin", "admin:password": "qswaefrd", "admin:password:confirm": "qswaefrd", "admin:email": "[email protected]" }'
