Full Version: ACP password reset
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
So basically, I locked myself out of my ACP due to “5 failed login attempts” so I went into phpMyAdmin and reset “login attempts” and “loginlockoutexpiry” to 0 in mybb_adminoptions.

I then went to phpMyAdmin to change the pass word to “test” by typing: 
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `salt` = '', `password` = '098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6‘ WHERE ‘uid’ = ‘1’;

However, when trying to login, the password “test” turns up invalid. Any idea why?
