Under Network you may need to update adapter value. Share a screenshot of all the available options.

in the preview window, I can see that website is open, but in my own browser, it doesnt.

@JefflyJ6 From where are you trying to connect?
“localhost” is only valid if using a browser launched froptm within the Linux Lite VM’s console.
If you are trying to access the VM from a laptop browser you need to get the IP address of the VM.
Launch a terminal window in the VM console and enter: ifconfig

@pedel

thanks for the clarification.

I try with the IP address and still not working

#1- I put the username: architect and password: password

it said incorrectly. is there a different credential? for the PCSSA mission

#2- do you know how to increase the console size, it is very small from the VM

@JefflyJ6 “password” is the password for the superuser “root” as well as the user named “architect”. These are users within your Linux Lite OS. If there is a command that the architect user does not have permission to execute you can prefix that command with "sudo " then enter the password “password”.

When logging into Pega (the url points to the prweb servlet) using a browser and are presented with a login screen you enter:

User: [email protected]

Password: install
