reset administration user name and password

I have trouble to login to my site administration.

Is it any way to reset adminstration user name and password.

Thanks

You can try this. I have not used it but I understand it works. make a database backup first (always make a backup first)

Restore Dolphin password via PhpMyadmin

You can restore admin password by executing this query in your DB management system using PhpMyAdmin:

TRUNCATE TABLE `Admins`;
INSERT INTO `Admins` VALUES ( 'admin', md5('dolphin'));

In this case your admin login will be admin and password - dolphin.

I hope this helps,

Hi, Stuart038:

Thanks.

I tried it, but it still not work. May be I didn't do the thing right.

This is first time I tried to log into  administration panel after installation.

Here are the steps I did.

1. Log in to my cPanel;

2. Start phpMyadmin;

3. Select Database link;

4. Select my data base;

5. Click Query tab;

6. Copy and paste your command lines to and

7. Click Send Query.

Any advice for the operations?

I'm a beginner to learn phy and MySQL.

Hope you can give me more help.

This is the way i used to do it for a joomla install, never needed to do it for dolphin but the pricipal is the same.

Goto phpmyadmin

find the table Admins

click the browse image

check the box for password

click the edit (pen image)

enter new password...which you'l need to turn into the correct format first, u can use this site to do so its an md5 generator http://www.trilug.org/~jeremy/md5.php

enter the new string press go and try logging in.

hope that helps

HI, Claire:

Thank you very much.

I did it successfully with your help.

Have a good day.

I thought I fixed this issue with the Claire help.

But it confused me after I put the licence code and click Regist,

the admin panel log in window pop up again. Then I entered the

user name and password as before, it displayed 'Invalide password'

again.

Any one have a idea for this issue.

Thanks.

Jim

how you are trying to login into admin page?
You need to enter yoursite.com/admin/index.php

Thanks everyone.

I have fixed this issue by reinstallation the Dolphin.

It goes fine so far.

Since this is the first time installation. nothing lost.

Hello everyone,

 

I lost the password to my Dolphin Admin panel, and had to change Hard Drives, I managed to get into Dolphin Admin and changed the password via Admin Home.

Well, that was a mistake, as now, I cannot access the Dolphin Admin Dashboard.

I followed directions to try and change the password by editing the Database, but, I cant for the life of me figure out where to enter the new password, or, is there any thing else I can do?????

 

Thanks in Advance.

This is an interesting issue I have seen several times in the forums, and even had it happen myself twice. Im not sure why.

Setting aside those who simply forget their pass, I would love to know why so many people suddenly can not log in to the admin.  Some kind of function seems to change the password or something. Any one know what this is?

almost all of my user data,900 clients and admin data has been deleted i am blocked out of admin panel. Using phpmyadmin i see admin. name and password encoded. i have tried sugestion written here, i have also copied exsisting admin and password entries of phpmyadmin, and change name value to exsisting acount, then added it to admin table.still no acces admim panel,, how can i make a new user and give user admin status and acess to admin panel

NOTE: The method described above for resetting the admin password is NOT FOR DOLPHIN 7

The table Admins does not exist in Dolphin 7. This appears to be the method for Dolphin 6.

DO NOT TRY TO USE FOR DOLPHIN 7.

There is a method for dolphin 7 located here. http://www.boonex.com/forums/topic/Reset-Admin-Password.htm
