Admin Login Whoas (Older Version)

Hi,

A client has handed a website to update that is an older version of CMSMS (the db says version is 31). This installation is so old that the password is not salted. I have tried everything in this thread http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/viewtopi ... =8&t=14467 and still no joy. No special characters in either the username or password and .htaccess is empty. Still have the same symptoms of reloading the login form on submit with no errors displayed even when $config['debug'] = true.

I have also searched this site and the internet for something that would work so as a last resort, I am posting here hoping that my problem has a solution I may not have found. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can update without login to :) but you should check error logs somewhere something is probably logged just have to find it ;)

Do a backup, look in /modules folder which third party modules are installed, grab latest version of third party modules and cmsms and upgrade.

Then hopefully your problems are magically fixed or come back with information ;)
