Guest Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 How can I reset my administrator password. Login fails. Its the same admin password for my sites. I have verified admin name in mysql. Password is encrypted. Login Functionality does not work anymore and I cannot gain access to my admin panel. In addition, I have looked in my configure.php file and verified connection string. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix the problem? It would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥geoffreywalton Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Delete the entry in the administrators table in my sql, then you get asked for a new password the next time you try to log in. Or install one of the many forgotten password contributions.

Guest Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I deleted the record, went back to login.php and it asked me to create administrator. I finished that step and attempted to login again. Same results...Error: Invalid administrator login attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
