Logins gone?

[Koo, Patrick]

This has happened to me on quite a few occasions (logging into MapServer Studio only, I can still login to the MapAdmin/login.php setup page with no problems).  One minute I can log in with the default "Administrator/admin" account (I didn't change it from the default), and next thing I know it gives me an error saying "Invalid User ID/Password" and I can't login again unless I reinstall the WebExtensions.

What I end up doing is create a backup of the WebExtensions folder, reinstall the MapServer WebExtensions, replace the folder with my backup, and it works again.  I have no idea why this happens tho, especially since I am copying over the exact same files that were there before...

Hi,

Today a user tried to connect to a server that I set up for
experimentation.  His login did not work.  I tried my admin
user/password and they did not work either.  Anybody have some
troubleshooting steps for me?

I'm guessing that I have a corrupt site and that I'll have to reinstall,
which isn't too bad in this case.  Is there any way to avoid this, or to
mitigate the effects?  It's always possible that both of us recorded the
wrong passwords but...

Thanks,
Jason
