Lost admin password

I was testing out the forgot password feature using the admin account email address. My mail server failed to receive the email. So now my password has been reset and I have no idea how to get in.

 

I have full access to the database via mysql and I have full access to the server itself via SSH.

 

Any ideas?

 I tried running that but it doesn't seem to work for me. My admin ID is 679 (I migrated from 6.1.6 and that's the ID it was assigned). I modified the statement accordingly and it doesn't seem to work.

 

I do notice it says to run it in myphpadmin, I'm using MySQL Query browser. I don't have myphpadmin installed here.

Could that be the issue? Maybe the statement for mysql query browser is different?

i think i still have the upgrade on my server if you want me to get the user and password for you....

I sent you the password and salt  after you change that make sure to empty the cache folder

I was not able to get in. Any ideas on resetting the password?

That procedure above is how dolphin sets passwords.

Repeat the 2 queries and then clear the entire cache by deleteing the contents of the cache folder.

If that fails, setup a new account then find it in the database and set the role field to 3 which will make that account admin.

Then log in with that account and set the password for the old account.

That procedure above should work though. It's the exact same way dolphin uses when a password is changed. As long as the ID number in both queries is accurate then it should work.

said your mail server failed to receive the email

then go to phpmyadmin and change the email ..

phpmyadmin > select your data base

and just run this query

UPDATE profiles SET Email="PUT YOUR EMAIL HERE" WHERE ID=679

if you got an error please post it in here cuz i think that you have the magic quotes:on . and you dont have a phpmyadmin so i think thats a problem . just keep us updated

but if you mean the server your hosting on failed to send the email then it's anouther case ...

if i did help you .. it wont hurt to go to my profile and add a recommendation for me ;)

 and if the referenced query fails when trying to update the email address that is because the table name is misstated

 

profiles --> Profiles

yes the table name is case sensitive

 but then as further mentioned, if the server is not sending the email, then you have not configured sendmail() or some other method of a mail server.

The mail is being sent fine. My network configuration was preventing me from receiving it. All is well now. I took an old db backup and restored it to a new db. Then I just swapped hashes and salts between databases.

Go to the SQL tab at the top of the page and run the two SQL queries mentioned in that topic.  Be sure to follow all directions.
