I have checked but i uploaded the files to the folder that is online, all files have a "changed yesterday" date.

Dear Garvin, you made my day! I am back in the Admin area. The second time the update was executed complete, I did not need to use the fixlogin.php. :lol: The spamlog in the original DB is 950 MB big - can I empty the table without getting into trouble ? The book "Peacocks Manifest. Roadnovel&q...
