As usual error is user fault or rookie mistake (your choice). I did not know that the characters were hidden as the cursor was not moving as I was typing, or any characters displayed while typing the passphrase. Also I had apparently had a num lock or cap lock on when typing the passphrase. After all that trying again with my passphrase and keyboard configured properly (without cap lock, num lock, etc.) I was able to sign in and proceed to set up my server.
