Title: BIG mess...can't log in as admin
Post by: Techbot on March 25, 2007, 10:09:11 am

Man this has been hell tonight.  I accidentally deleted the MySQL database for my SMF website.  As a result I had to rebuild my entire SMF forum.  It was bridged with my coppermine install and now I can't log into coppermine as admin to bridge with the new site.

Anyone know how to get around this?

unbridge and use your original CPG username/ pwd to log into CPG

good lord...i have to remember the ORIGINAL admin user id and pass, not the bridged one.  I haven't used that in forever. Now everytime I get it wrong, I have to wait 3700 seconds to try another password :/ is there anyway to check/reset this password through a config file or something?

The password reminder could be from help... or you use phpmyadmin to add a new pwd into the db
