C5, Unable to login for site edit
Permalink 1 user found helpful
Hello
I have just installed C5 on localhost with Apache and Mysql. I managed to install C5 but when I try to login to edit site, I keep getting error message "Invalid username or password"
I am using username and password which I created for database. I am sure user name and password are correct.
I am keep seeing in forum to login as admin. But I have no "admin" as a user in my database.
thanks in advance.
Regards
Faisal

Unless you created a new username and password after the install the username should be admin and the password should be the password that C5 created when you installed it. You have to change that in the dashboard before your sign-out if you don't want that to be your password. My suggestion would be to try and reset and email your password from the login screen or clear your DB and do a reinstall. As soon as the install finishes go to the Dashboard->Users and change your password. That should fix it. I hope that helps.
The installer ask for a password other than db pass. So what is it for if not to log in?
