Hi,

Due to the fact I'm not able to login to the system as a admin user (problem reported before on this forum. no answer satisfied), I'm looking to go around the problem.

Is there a way to alter the admin entry in the password file?

What do I have to do when I want to reinstall the software and be able to keep all the content?

Regards,
Rob

Update the password field for the record `admin` (login name) user, by replacing the password hash with the default hash as provided by the setup wizard.

I've done this several times to solve this problem.

The default hash for the admin password is kinda hidden in the file (ezpublish root) share/db_data.dba

For me the default hash was this string (without the single `quotes` ...) 'c78e3b0f3d9244ed8c6d1c29464bdff9' .

This hash when used as the `admin` user's password hash will reset the password to `publish` without the quotes.

<b>Note: This only works for the true user login name admin (due to the kind of hash creation used in eZ publish)</b>

To generate your new password hash under linux, you can run:

echo -n -e "admin\npublish"|md5sum

The result is:

c78e3b0f3d9244ed8c6d1c29464bdff9

like kracker specified.

To do this for another user, replace admin with the login, and publish with the wanted password.

This requires HashType in site.ini to be md5_user. (This is the normal, so if you don't know you changed it, it will work)

Thanks for the replies.

We've also found the root cause:
The file ezsession.MYI was corrupted.

Regards,
Rob.
