Locked out of my site - facepalm

Post by wmdvanzyl »

Something strange is going on... I can't log into one of my local CMSMS sites. First i thought i just forgot the password, but now that i think about it, it was saved in my browser and it still failed. I then tried going into the database and changing the password to the hash of a known password and it failed... then i set it to blank and still nothing... and NULL fared no better.

My local dev machine doesn't have mail sending set up so no password retrieval for me.

Any suggestions?

Reinstall, but on step 5 DON'T CREATE TABLE OR INSTALL DEFAULT CONTENT of course with all problems like this make a back up of the DB...
