Not really. I think you just do not have any user in the database.

There is no file. You need to go to http://www.yourdomain.com/typo3/install. I do not think IP address is a problem for you because initially this option is not set. You should go to datbase analyzer there and create admin user. Then you can login.

There is no conent because you have to create it. You must create database tables using install tool and then you can create content.
