sorry for bad english, i forgot one thing that:
you should check web2py folder first,
if  there is a parameters_1234.py  file then you have remove it before
do steps above
 (coz: if parameters_1234.py is existing then web2py wont ask password
again, dont remember exactly )

web2py admin panel and password wont work if you installed it by
autoscript, because 2 problems:
1- No SSL web2py website be created in webfaction control panel.
2- parameters_portnumber.py:  portnumber is wrong ( i tested and it
works with port 80, dont understand why)

To re-config apache for web2py, goto:
username/webapps/web2py/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
open this file and here is config:
