[Solved] New install, can't login

Permalink
Hi There,

First time trying the new version of c5 (since 5.6) so I might be doing something wrong.

Essentially, the install went fine but now I can't login, I've tried the following:
- Reset admin password 4 times
- Confirmed the admin email address that's in the database
- Upgraded MAMP Pro and switched the PHP version to 7.1.6
- Deleted the c5 install and reinstalled

But when I try to login, I keep seeing the error 'Invalid username or password'

BTW, if I click the button to edit the site after the install has finished, I can log in. But if I come back at a later date, or try a different browser (have tried Safari, Chrome and Firefox) I can't login.

Does anyone know what's happening here or how to fix?

Will try another delete and reinstall just incase.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Ben

Solved, it's been about 7 years since our installs haven't used email addresses as the username!
