You exceeded the maximum allowed number of login attempts. In addition to your username and password you now also have to pass the CAPTCHA test.
So I reset his ID "user_login_attempts" =0 manually from phpmyAdmin
no joy
Then I tried to login to ACP and got the same thing. Doesn't recognize my browser stored password. I'm still logged in (remember me) but when I click ACP it wants to re-authenticate and fails using the stored browser password.
I reset ALL users "user_login_attempts" =0
This should fix it right?
Still, I can't login.
So then I ran this insert to make a back door admin
Code: Select all
INSERT INTO phpbb_users (user_type, group_id, username, username_clean, user_regdate, user_password, user_email, user_lang, user_style, user_rank, user_colour, user_posts, user_permissions, user_ip, user_birthday, user_lastpage, user_last_confirm_key, user_post_sortby_type, user_post_sortby_dir, user_topic_sortby_type, user_topic_sortby_dir, user_avatar, user_sig, user_sig_bbcode_uid, user_jabber, user_actkey, user_newpasswd) VALUES (3, 5, 'Admin1', 'admin1', 0, '21232f297a57a5a743894a0e4a801fc3', '[email protected]', 'en', 1, 1, 'AA0000', 1, '', '', '', '', '', 't', 'a', 't', 'd', '', '', '', '', '', '')
No joy. Says I've exceeded my maximum logins. ???????
Took a look at "who's online" to see if the dreaded same IP addy problem. Nope. All the users online have unique IPs
Manually deleted Cache files via FTP. My CPU pinned for 5 minutes and rebuilt folders.
Still no joy.
I can't Login with my admin user ID..with the inserted Admin1 user ID. And others can't login.
Tried different browsers. Different computers.
I'm at a loss.
Just started today. NOTHING has changed in configuration.
