  • Changing admin password

    Posted by bmcclure on October 21, 2009 at 02:42

    Sorry for all of these posts–I have been searching online but am surprisingly finding very little from other users who have experienced similar issues.

    I am unable to update the ‘admin’ password from the console.

    When I enter the current password, and the new password in both required fields, and click Update, I get two errors:

    PASSWORDS DIDN’T MATCH OR OTHER PROBLEM ENCOUNTERED WHILE UPDATING PASSWORDS

    ERROR UPDATING USER INFO

    Do you use firefox? If so, install Live Http Headers add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/es-ES/firefox/addon/3829), reboot firefox, go to tools > Live HTTP headers and go to change the password. You will see in clear text the data sent to the server, jut to verify it’s correctly sent.

    This is probably a bug.

    If you are in hurry just try:
    SELECT MD5(‘yourpassword’);

    Copy the hash and do:
    INSERT INTO `tusuario` (`id_user`, `fullname`, `firstname`, `lastname`, `middlename`, `password`, `comments`, `last_connect`, `registered`, `email`, `phone`, `is_admin`) VALUES
    (‘admin’, ‘Pandora’, ‘Pandora’, ‘Admin’, ”, ‘THEHASHYOUCOPIED’, ‘Admin Pandora’, 1232642121, 0, ‘[email protected]’, ‘555-555-5555’, 1);

    I think was one of the bugs solved after the RC1 release.

    Try RC2, almost 40bugs has been fixed since RC1.
