AppGini Community Forums

I am Adekoya by name, please can anyone help to fix the error on my appgini application in a client website. Am getting error "invalid username or password" in the admin login webpage. I need your help cos am new to this application but I use php to develop website. I have changed the password from database end still the same error. The error link is http://www.alliedft.com/appgini/admin/a ... tors/login. please I need your help guys

You can reset your password by opening the "config.php" file, find the line starting with:
'adminPassword' =>

And change it to:
'adminPassword' => '21232f297a57a5a743894a0e4a801fc3',

Now, you can log into the admin area using your admin username and the temporary password 'admin'. You should then change the password from there.

Thanks a.gneady
But no file config.php am seeing admin_change_password.ctp and the code is:

<div id="main">
<h1><?php echo $html->image('user.png'); ?>&nbsp;Change Admin Password</h1>
<?php echo $form->create('Administrator', array('action' => 'adminPassword')); ?>
<?php echo $form->input('id'); ?>
<label>Your old password&nbsp;<span class="want">*</span></label>
<?php echo $form->password('oldPassword'); ?>
<label>New password&nbsp;<span class="want">*</span></label>
<?php echo $form->password('password'); ?>
<label>Confirm you new password&nbsp;<span class="want">*</span></label>
<?php echo $form->password('confirmPassword'); ?>
<?php echo $form->end('Save Password'); ?>
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
<?php echo $this->element('side_bar'); ?>
</div>

I suddenly cannot login as admin anymore and the below didn't work for me. Please help...

Thank you,
David

I found the fix for this and is as follows;

You have to change not only the config.php, but also use phpadmin to modify the database user to match. There needs to be a way to have another Super Admin and this would be much easier to fix.

Hi,

try to change the pwd to

$2y$10$nrt8C6FJNchiPSIeC2AlR.osAhbGUV3TbCDByn8vAhmSHiTT5qm/W

that would be the admin in the new version. Also remember to change the password also in the membership_users table

For those stumbling upon this thread, in addition to changing the password hash in config.php, you should also run this query in phpMyAdmin or any other MySQL admin utility (after selecting your AppGini app's database): Change admin in the above query to the actual administrator username.

In future releases, I plan to make admin password resetting more straightforward than that, but the above should do it for now.
