etherpad admin access

Note: Fix for etherpad turnkey 12.1:
echo -n "done" > /opt/etherpad-lite/src/.ep_initialized
chown nodejs:nodejs /opt/etherpad-lite/src/.ep_initialized
/etc/init.d/nodejs restart
 
Question:
How can I access the admin section of etherpad?
http://hostname/admin => The form requests a name/pass, I couldnt find the credencials for turnkey.
I tried lots of words, no avail...
 
I also tried to add lines to settings.json: (these lines arent there by default)
/* Users for basic authentication. is_admin = true gives access to /admin.
     If you do not uncomment this, /admin will not be available! */
  /*
  "users": {
    "admin": {
      "password": "admin",
      "is_admin": true
    },
    "user": {
      "password": "user",
      "is_admin": false
    }
 
I got back the "nginx 504 Bad Gateway" error.
 
Background:
Yesterday I was testing etherpad with a friend, and she tried to add a picture to our "test" doc... since then, we could not connect to the doc "test". I wanted to try to loot at the issue from the admin interface.
 
Thanks for the help in advace! :)
