Can't log in after upgrade

Post by dj1471 »

Hi all,

I've just upgraded from 0.5 to 0.6rc1 and now I can't log in.

I can see that the username and password I'm trying are right from the database, but I get "You appear to have entered a wrong username or password" every time...

Any ideas?

If you have direct Database (phpMyAdmin) access, please make sure that both username and password are correct:

select *, md5('yourpassword') as pass from serendipity_authors

Then the password column and the 'pass' column should match up. If not, the password is wrong.

If everything is right, could you try to remove any cookies pointing to your site? In Mozilla this can be easily done in the cookie manager. If then you can login, please report back, because in that case s9y would have a bug :-)

Regards,
Garvin.
