Re: Trouble getting Serendipity to work after (re-)installat

Hi,
to reset your password you should follow this instruction:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=20998&p=10446521&hi ... #p10446521
I have tried this, but no dice. My password is still rejected.

I have also now updated the blog to the latest version.

Re: Trouble getting Serendipity to work after (re-)installat

[You just have to check / insert the right values: your installed version, the name of the database, the host the database is running on, the prefix for all database tables, database user and passwort and database charset.

Make sure you have a full backup of the site including a database dump. I have both of these, a full database dump and all the original files - just the original serendipity_config_local.inc.php is missing. What would be the easiest way to restore this? I have tried reuploading all the original fil...

Re: Trouble getting Serendipity to work after (re-)installat

Cannot login" means your password is not accepted? The login screen seems to work. Yes, that's what I mean. The password is not accepted, even though I just created the new administrator account (by reinstalling). The site looks "stylish" and the CSS seems to be loaded? Sounds crazy,...
