I am trying to log into my Raspberry Pi using PuTTY from Windows. However, whenever I try to log into my Raspberry Pi using the default username and password (pi* and raspberry) it says Access Denied.
I have the wpa_supplicant.conf file and ssh file created. This is its first bootup. I am using the latest version of the Raspbian Lite OS.
Recently, the default user setup of Raspbian was significantly changed, rendering most existing online tutorials invalid.
In essence, the default pi user no longer exists, so you have to create it and set its password using either the official Imager tool or by creating a userconf file in the boot partition of your microSD card, which should contain a single line of text: username:hashed-password, replacing username with the name of the user you want (e.g., pi) and hashed-password with the hash of the password you want.
According to the official guide, the easiest way to do this is by running the following in a terminal (Linux or macOS):
echo 'password' | openssl passwd -6 -stdin
Again, you should replace password with the password you want here.

The default username and password are no longer valid for Raspberry Pi.
If you are trying to log in headlessly (without a monitor and keyboard), you can do it from Raspberry Pi Imager itself.
On selecting the OS in Raspberry Pi Imager, you get an icon of settings in which you can
create a user
setup Wi-Fi
enable SSH
After configuring, you can continue flashing your memory card.
And on first boot you will be good to go.
I have solved this problem. You can easily input your username and password with Raspberry Pi Imager.
add the user you created when flashing the image to the ssh group.
usermod -a -G ssh YourPiUsername

I've been trying to establish ssh connection with my raspberry by adding config files (wpa_supplicant.conf, ssh) to boot section of sd card with raspberry OS. I've done everything right and usually after these steps I could easily connect to my raspberry.
But, now I can't do this.
Whenever I try to log into raspberry using 'pi' as login and 'raspberry' as password, it says that this is incorrect password. I tried reinstalling OS on sd card; however, it didn't help.
I don't have any other opportunities other than connecting to raspberry wirelessly.
I have Raspberry Pi 4B and Raspberry OS 64-bit
It seems that you are using the latest release of raspbian. Developers have made a huge step forward to the security and there is no more default user pi and password raspberry, no need of the wpa_supplicant.conf & ssh files (but they are still work).
For headless setup you can press settings button in the last version of Raspberry Pi Imager and configure User, Wi-Fi, SSH and so on.
Scroll down to the Headless setup chapter

I created a guide with images to do this here:
As per the official raspberry blog at https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/raspberry-pi-bullseye-update-april-2022 the default username password will no longer be allowed for headless login.
Basically there are two methods
Use the updated raspberry pi imager too from here
manually add userconf file in the boot directory with username:encrypted-password as a single line. to generate encrypted-password string use echo 'mypassword' | openssl passwd -6 -stdin tested on win 10
I'm trying to boot into my Raspberry Pi 3b+ on my Turtlebot3 with the respective image (https://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/platform/turtlebot3/sbc_setup/#sbc-setup).
I get to the point where I need to enter the login information, but ubuntu/ ubuntu doesn't work. I have also tried pi/ raspberry etc. but nothing is correct.
Am I missing something? Is the username and pw for this image different?
I just did a manual SBC setup, it took a while but worked out.
Update:
At least for the Melodic version
user = "ubuntu" and password = "turtlebot"
I am installing Alpine Linux on my Raspberry Pi 2B according to
https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi. after follow the instruction to the letter I can finally boot it up but I can not log in with the password I entered during the step setup-alpine command requires. I try several time with easy password that the setup-alpine script complain it is a weak password also with password that do not have any message complained by the setup script or just hit enter to leave the password undefined. all options that I did rendered the system useless after reboot there is no way to log on to the system with root user. I try to register a user in their community bulletin but they are closed to new registration of new user so I have to come here for help. any body have experience installing it on raspberry pi 2 please advice. Thanks in advance
I found a way out on this matter after a 2 days of frustration. root user can not log on because I do setup in headless mode which I do not attached the raspberry pi to a monitor and keyboard and do it through ssh. the configuration of ssh do not allow root log on remotely (I guess) so I add another user then log on with that user through ssh instead and I can log on without issue. I guess another method would edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config add a line PermitRootLogin yes to allow root login before reboot the system
I have a raspberry pi but no external keyboard, mouse or ethernet cable to set it up - but I do have micro-sd card reader. Is there a way for me to just write my wireless internet config straight to the micro-sd card so the raspberry pi will be able to connect to the wifi, and then allow me to ssh in?
The micro-sd card already has Raspbian installed on it.
Sure.
Put the card in a drive and mount it.
Go to the partition called boot.
Create an empty file called ssh just using:
touch ssh # Works in Linux/macOS
type NUL >> ssh # Works in Windows
Create a file called wpa_supplicant.conf with your WiFi settings - be very sure that Windows hasn't added any .txt extension:
country=US
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid="NETWORK-NAME"
psk="NETWORK-PASSWORD"
}
Once it works, and you can ssh successfully into the Raspberry Pi, be sure to run:
sudo raspi-config
and permanently enable ssh for subsequent reboots.
There are Raspberry Pi 3 model B and MicroSD with NOOBS OS. Unfortunately I have not any display to get a direct access to NOOBS shell. So remote connection could be set via ssh. However my device does not have any IP-address. I read everywhere that the connection options must be set... via shell. But it's impossible for me!
How can I resolve this problem and get remote access to shell (or to desktop even)?
I ran into this a while ago, I started using PiBakery. It will write raspbian to the SD card and add a startup script to connect to the network and enable ssh. This way the first time you boot it up, its ready to go and you can connect via SSH.
When you set it up, it also allows you to set a static IP address so you know exactly where it is when it boots.
Enable SSH by placing a file named 'ssh', without any extension, onto the boot partition of the SD card.
Connect your device to your LAN using a wired connection.
From another computer on the network execute arp -a to view locally connected hosts and get your raspberry pi's IP address.
From there you should be able to SSH into your pi.
