Got logged out of Admin now can't login

[cody]

I am absolutely certain of my login credentials as well as being certain that I did not change them, but I can't login now. Any way that I can fix this?

I can FTP to edit any necessary file, but don't know what to edit.

Hi!

Did you change anything since it last time worked? Changed the server, changed a browser, installed some new cookie/phising-filtering software?

Your credentials can only be reset using phpMyAdmin and editing the serendipity_authors DB table.

HTH,

I had upgraded to 1.1 when all of the issues started. Most were just not figuring out some of the changes. Then I was editing a page in Static Pages. I took a break, came back to continue editing. When I clicked to save the work I was taken to the login screen where my credentials no longer worked.

Hi!

That's an important pointer that you upgraded. You should always mention things like these, because else we don'T know where to look for.

Maybe you can try to make your browser delete all cookies related to your page, restart the browser and try to login again. It might be that an old session cookie with your old password is behaving inproperly.

Are you using a Apache or a IIS server?
