Geeklog Forums

All was working fine then suddenly today I try to log in as Admin and it says Invalid User/Password. I've changed nothing. I was able to register as a new user, received that password and was able to log in with that but can't gain entrance as ADMIN.

Is there a file on the server I can access to see what it is showing that adming User/password to be?

Thanks!

The password is stored in the database and it's encrypted, so you can't look it up. You can either upgrade that new account to a Root account or you can change that encrypted password by setting it to "5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99" which sets it back to "password".

Also make sure you're running the most up to date version of Geeklog, as we had to fix a few security issues recently.

Thanks so much, Dirk.

I'll have my host try that second option putting password back and see if that works. Then I guess I'll have to upgrade but that might create all new problems, knowing me!
