Can't log in to localhost

Permalink
Can somebody please help me? I've installed Concrete5 on my localhost yesterday and everything worked fine. Today I tried working on my site again, but I can't login. Everytime I tried to login it gives me the message that I'm entering an invalid username or password. This is quite strange, because I can use the same username and password to login to the Concrete5 site. I also tried resetting my password a couple of times through the 'reset your password'-button it shows, but I never recieved any e-mail. Can somebody please help me with this?

on a local dev server you probably will not receive an email.
What you can do is look at the Logs Table in the database and find the url to the page to reset your password, copy and paste that into a browser and it should work if it has not already timed out..
Also, Is your local site asking for a user name or an email address to login?

Hi Weyboat,

I've been looking for a while now on how to retrieve the url, but the only one I can find arehttp://localhost/concrete5/index.php/login/concrete/forgot_password... andhttp://localhost/concrete5/index.php/login/concrete/password_sent.... Which are the url's where I can insert my e-mail and where I recieve a confirmation that my email has been send. That's all I could find so far. I'm also not sure where I can find the Logs Table in phpmyadmin.

For your other question. It asks for my username. I've already tried to also login with my emailaddress, but with no success.

in phpMyAdmin look down the list of tables in your database and click on the 'Logs' table.
Find the last entry and click edit this will expand the row and allow you to copy the full url.

This works for me... thanks buddy...

Before opening log table you need to below link and insert registered email address than you can check 'Logs' table and edit last created "logID" and copy link from message row and now you can set your desire password..

http://localhost/concrete5/index.php/login/concrete/forgot_password...

Thanks again...Good day..

According to the HTML code, the info of the form is getting send tohttp://localhost/concrete5/index.php/login/callback/concrete/forgot... but that page shows me the same as the second link I posted in my last reply.

You need to look in the database
Here is a sample of what you should find in the last entry of the Logs table..


You have requested a new password for the site Mysite

Your username is: xxxx@xxxx.co.uk

You may change your password at the following address:

http://127.0.0.1/login/change_password/cvM4KIjOUNhwPej0Qhzx5Ix0EEUA...

Thanks for browsing the site!
