bwfc Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 HiI just installed v1.1 without a problem, then after deleting install folder and renaming admin folder i went to log into admin only to be met with the error message "employee does not exist, or bad password".I am not making any errors and am 100% certain of the login details, is this a common error?When i try the forgot password bit it tells me again that I dont exist Arrggghhhh Front end works perfectly.Please help and Thanks in AdvanceBW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropischBruin Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 You will need to go into your phpMyAdmin and update the ps_employee table.EMPLOYEE TABLE NAME: ps_employeeCOOKIE_KEY: ‘!!!!’New pass: 123456789Email: [email protected]!!!! The Cookie key is found in your settings.inc.php and will look like "hgI3M9S1Uv45wDqkqvGNYF.xAamJY9.zKpykqHCgCxE5m1ozAtQBjFIi" UPDATE ps_employee SET passwd=md5("hgI3M9S1Uv45wDqkqvGNYF.xAamJY9.zKpykqHCgCxE5m1ozAtQBjFIi123456789") WHERE email="[email protected]" Please be aware that the MD5 string is composed by the COOKIE_KEY and the PASSWORD, all together.clear the password and e-mail address in you DB first… that way when it works the password and e-mail field will be updated… Edit: You could also only update the passwd and e-mail field in the db with the combination of the COOKIE_KEY and PASSWORD and the [email protected] e-mail address.After logging in into your Admin you can change you Employee setting back to what you want.I hope this helps… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prestabase Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 The settings.inc.php file will be within the "config" directory. Do you see that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
