Login - after sql migration between servers

Post by bones »

Hi

I'm working off-line on my Linux box at home (our marvellous Telkom still has a huge monopoly meaning that ADSL etc is still too expensive). Installed phpWCMS there, all working fine.
Also installed phpWCMS on the server through Fantastico (don't shoot me).
Then I used phpMyAdmin to export the db via sql. Uploaded to the on-line server by dropping tables and running sql script.
I can see the pages, no problem, but I can't login.

i have looked at the conf file but it doesn't make sense to me to change it.

Any ideas

Roland

Try to update the password on your remote system using phpMyAdmin - and update to current release.

The update is a MD5 value - select this in the select menu in phpMyAdmin and insert the new password.

how do i change pwd in phpMyAdmin?

i can go and see the entry in the user table - but the password seems encrypted.

Sorry, i don't know what MD5 means.

(Hey, by the way, i dunno if i can help phpwcms, but i can was brought up talking German, but went to an English school (also lived in Germany and Switzerland for some years - so if you need some translating from German to English, let me know.)

Regards
Roland

another strange thing. When copying between two remote servers, all worked fine, except that you now have to put in pwd twice.

workaround

Post by bones »

Hi Pappnase, Oliver

Thanks for the help.
I eventually found a workaroud - i created a new instance of PHPwcms and just sql'ed the user table to my local system, and then sql'ed the whole db back to where i wanted it. And seems to work.

Still puzzled as to why it would not accept the login. Suspect to do with timestamps?
