Register a new account.

Then in your mysql table for that account change its access to 10. Persons with level 10 (highest rank) can edit other accounts. You can change the password for the original admin account then.

they said register is disabled.. or not allowed... anyway to change it?

no idea in that case.

wait until someone more clued up comes along. sorry.

b2evo sets up the admin account automatically, and provides a randomly generated password for that account. One of the last screens you saw during installation had the password on it. Now, since you don't have the password, try logging in as admin and clicking "lost password". It will email a new random password to whatever email ID you have in your conf/_config.php file.

sorry about link of "forget password", cuz my host cant use mail() or any mail fuctions. this script cant send a new password to my email!. how to change or get old password (after finishing setup) to login into admin again?

cant register a new user!!! in case of "new register and change table user to level 10" in my web doesnt have link to register
how to?

can you access your database via phpmyadmin or something like this?

than you can delete the password in evo_users

Thanks it works!!!

how do you actually delete the password? is it jsut deleting user_pass?

I also tried getting a new password by clicking the "lost password" and getting a new password. but I haven't received any emails...

I went into my config file and verified my email address for admin... but still no emails. any suggestions?

If you can access the database, put this in as your admin password :-
25f9e794323b453885f5181f1b624d0b

That'll set your password to 123456789

?

I apologize for my cluelessness. how do I do that? through phpmyadmin or through a particular file (is it the config file?)

thanks!

Yes, use phpmyadmin, open evo_users table and change the admin password to the above code, then login as to your blog as admin with the password 123456789.

Don't forget to change your password afterwards ;)

?

perfect! thanks!

There is a MUCH simpler way if you have simply missed the password on doing the initial install.

Run the install again.

This time you will see that you can blow the database away. do so.

Then install again, this time initialising a new database and you'll get a new password.

DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU NEED THE DATA IN THE DATABASE. Only do this if you missed the password on the first initial install.

Perhaps someone could come up with a quick php script that could be easily ftp'd to the site to reset the admin password.

I tried the qouted method, but it does't work, and I also change the email address, and try the "forgotten Password", it also does't work.
I don't know why.
Thanks in advance,

David

I tried every methods above,but all do't work.
Pls help!

You honestly expect an answer in half an hour?

Anyway, I personally can't help you any more than has already been stated on this thread. If you can't be a bit more verbose in what "doesn't work", and what exactly you've done, I don't have any way of helping you any further.

Thanks Gramham for your quick reply
I just couldn't log in to edit my logs,
I tried the following method:
1) use phpmyadmin, open evo_users table and change the admin password to put this in as your admin password :-
25f9e794323b453885f5181f1b624d0b , then login as to the blog as admin with the password 123456789.
2)click the lost password icon, it still pop up the log in window, I can't get any new password in the email.

It don't work,
What else can I do?
Thanks,

David
