Reset password
Closed this issue · 7 comments
Hi,
I need to reset the password so I could submit another one. But how ?
Maybe removing a file or a parameter, but can"t find which.
In ICEcoders data dir you'll find a config-YOURDOMAINHERE.php file. That's a PHP serialized data file. Open that in a text editor on your server and within it (about half way along the long line of serialized data) you can set the "password" length & value back to 0 and a blank string. ie:
s:8:"password";s:0:"";
It should look EXACTLY like that when you've set s:0:"" instead of what you had previously.
Reload ICEcoder login page in your browser and now you can set a password.
It doesn't work, showing me the password creation form but refusing anything I could enter (even the working original password).
In the data directory, I have 2 config files : config-<domainname).php and config-<ip@>.php.
The domain based filename would be the one to amend really. It should work fine - you met all password strength rules?
I see you've raised another issue from a logged in point of view. Did you resolve this issue in the end?
Will assume you resolved this issue and so closing.
Unfortunately, doesn't work for me neither. After changing the mentioned file I see a login screen but not the create password screen.
Or is it possible to change settings to "enable registration" by changing any files? I am a teacher and have daily students with lost passwords so they are re-installing IceCoder in order to get access again. A simplier workaround would be helpfull. Kind regards, Meindert
Aha, I found the solution. You should go to the config-global.php file and simply change "enableRegistration";b:0;s:9: to "enableRegistration";b:1;s:9:
@dewebmeester yeah, previous info here is old and setting is in config-global.php as you mentioned. I'll look to add this as FAQ info on the website. 👍🏼
