Just curious Noah's Classifields

Hi!

Just curious problem, please help.
I have installed Noah's Classifieds, but can't login as Admin, I don't know Admin username and password.
Can anyone suggest where I must find or change Admin username and password?

Thanks,
Angela

Try looking for a readme text file or install text file, otherwise try
Admin or Administrator without password with various case combination (ADMIN, admin, Admin, and so on).
An other trial would be various combination of admininstrator in login and password fields.

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
it works!
Thank you very much Milo !

As I thought.
Did u find a readme or tried a "brute forcing" login??

Hey I had the same problem. Found the answer at one of the Noah's Classifieds FAQ pages, so I thought I'd come back here and share the answer. Basically, there are 2 choices:

Option 1: If you own the server yourselves (or at least have a helpful server support), you can restart the MySql daemon with the --old-passwords option, or alternatively put this setting in the MySql startup file. This will force MySql to treat the passwords as in the older versions.

Option 2: If the above is not possible, you can try to 'patch' one of the Php files: open 'gorum/dbproperty.php' in a text editor and go to the end of the file - you can find there a 'getPassword' function. There is a line in that function which looks like this:



Rewrite this line the following way:


Save the file and try to log into the program.

I had to use the second option. After I changed that file, I surfed to my classifieds page, clicked login, chose the "Forgot My Password" option. I used my admin email (that I use for the whole site) as the email to send a new password to. When the email came in, I clicked the link, signed in with the new password and I was on my way!

Good Luck!
