admin login problems.

[robd]

I have had several isp_config servers running fine without issue for several months. The perfect setup for FC4 and the installation guide worked first time every time. Great work.

One of my servers has just developed a problem with the admin login interface. I can no longer login.

I goto https://my.tld.com:81 and attempt to login.
Username admin - and I enter the wrong password on purpose - I get an err101

Username admin and the RIGHT password - I get redirected to a file that does not exist: /login/login_fehler.php

(I know that it is the right password as I reset it using mysql)

I do not have this file on my other ispconfig servers....
And AFAIK nothing has changed in my environment....

Nothing of interest in the logs, only the 404.....

I thought I would mention that the httpd2 server for my websites is running fine. And that phpmyadmin on apache1.3:81 is also fine.

Did you encrypt the password with md5 like? passwort = md5('yournewpassword')

Please check in the /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/config.inc.php file thate the username and password for the mysql database are correct.

Please check with 'netstat -tap' that connections to mysql over TCP are enabled.

Till, thanks for getting back to me.

mysql is running and listening for connections:
tcp 0 0 localhost.localdomain:mysql *:* LISTEN 1506/mysqld

Password was encrypted using MD5.

If i enter the WRONG password I get err=101.
If I enter the right password I get the 404.

The file "/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/config.inc.php" is not found on my server - perhaps recent server crash killed this file.

Will attempt to find one in backups.

Hangon....the file is not found on my other server either and on my other server I can login no problems.

SQL query:
UPDATE `sys_user` SET `passwort` = MD5( 'new_password' ) WHERE `doc_id` =1 LIMIT 1 ;

I have cleared my cache and all cookies for this server in two web browsers. I am still unable to login - I am being passed through a login loop.
