MyBB Community Forums

here is the screenshot



i tried to install mybb 3times but i still cannot login after install..it says wrong username & pass..i just set the username to "admin" & pass to "admin" & it says wrong combination...

i'm using the latest version 1.4.12

Download again and try a new copy of ./inc/functions.php.

I am having the same problem. I downloaded a new copy of ./inc/functions.php., but that did not help.

Here are the steps I took to get to this point:
1. Created a test forum with a back-up copy of the my existing forum (using myBB.1.4.9).
2. Uploaded myBB.1.4.1.3
3. Restored the database tables with a back-up from my existing forum
4. Now teady to install myBB.1.4.1.3, but it isn't letting me past the login screen. Says I have an incorrect password. Any help?

If it's saying it's wrong then it's wrong... but run this query:

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `password` = '098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6', `salt` = '' WHERE `uid` = '1';

Change the 1 if that's not your UID. Then your password will be test.

Tried this and the SQL said it affected 1 line, so it appears to have been successful. Still can't login with "test" as the password.

The password issue is weird as I know and can use my password in the forum I copied this back-up from. As you note, I am sure I have something wrong in the copied forum. Not sure how or when it changed.

Here is a thought. On my original site, I created a usergroup Super Administrator (GID 4), for myself and another person. There is an Administrator, but it looks like I set a lot of the permissions to No. Could this be part of the issue? And if so, is there a query to help with this one?

Did you run the upgrade script?

That is the process I am in and it won't let me past the log in screen.

I don't think you can have spaces in your username

I always have had a space in my name on prior board versions. And I have tried logging in with my administrator's name (which is one word). I have even gone as far as to change all my Administrator's permissions to yes, recreate a new back-up file, restore that file to my test site, and then run Matt's script for UID 2 (which is that of my Administrator). Of course, also tried myself. No luck either way. But I appreciate the ideas!

Yes, the user you're trying to login with has to have full admin permissions...

Um... yes you can...
