Steps to reproduce

1. crc is successfully started and I get the following messages at the end:

INFO Starting OpenShift cluster ... [waiting 3m]
INFO
INFO To access the cluster, first set up your environment by following 'crc oc-env' instructions
INFO Then you can access it by running 'oc login -u developer -p developer https://api.crc.testing:6443'
INFO To login as an admin, run 'oc login -u kubeadmin -p abc https://api.crc.testing:6443'
INFO
INFO You can now run 'crc console' and use these credentials to access the OpenShift web console

1. I can successfully log in from oc on developer:

PS C:crc-1.4.0> oc login -u developer -p developer https://api.crc.testing:6443
Login successful.

You don't have any projects. You can try to create a new project, by running

1. I invoke crc console to open web console
2. After typing username: developer with password: developer I got invalid login or password message. However I can successfully login to console using kubeadmin account

Expected

Login on developer account works from web browser.

Actual

I got invalid login or password message.

Logs

You can start crc with crc start --log-level debug to collect logs.

@gasgithub Make sure you use the htpasswd_provider link and not the kube:admin one to login for developer user.

Thank you for prompt response. Yes, it works correctly. I somehow missed that, sorry for bothering.

[praveenkumar]

I am reopening this issue to add documentation around it so users shouldn't be confuse about it.
