I just downloaded the OVA from the MEGA mirror and after powering it on found the following problems:

1) On the VM console / shell you are informed the default login is root/eve ...this is invalid

2) On the web interface you are informed the default login is admin/unl....this is invalid...someone else found it to be admin/eve

3) SSH connections are refused

The problem was not that I "simply didnt finish eve install and didnt watch any how to video:) "
I actually did watch some of your how-to videos before downloading the OVA believe it or not.
The problem was my virtualization platform (VMWare vCloud Director) was generating a random password for the VM's console.

but it was your ESXi issue then...
without any details you reported only nake fact: it doesnt work!
Everybody arround can run and it works great, but yours not, what I should think or advice then, if you do not give any explanation in details..
How I could know your ESXi setup there?
