upcomtech Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I have lost the admin password for my local machine copy. I can access the database field with PhpMyAdmin but lack the knowledge to change it. My efforts all fail. Any suggestions? I assume it has to be 'hashed' somehow, but that's over my head. If you think you can help point me in the right direction, Please Email me Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Don, Use phpmyadmin to truncate the administrators table. Then, log into the store admin area and create a NEW administrator. Then, sign in using that newly created username and password. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherzner Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I am new to OS I just signed up last night. I tried to login into my admin once I had everything set up and I can't login, it says invalid password and it will not let me in. I don't know what to do but I am stuck until I can figure out how to get into my admin....can anyone help me? Cindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Cindy, As stated in my previous post, log into your hosting account, select phpmyadmin and open your osCommerce database. Locate the administrators table and truncate (empty) it. Then, log into your admin account and create a new administrator and log in with the new account.

Ravens Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 No success here either. It creates a new user which appears in the (empty) database, but I still can't login. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
