    Hi

    I have recently installed a phpbb plus1.5 forum for my site. Today when i tried to login as admin, it shows password incorrect. I checked forgot password, and an e mail came, which asked to login with old password itself. But I cant login with old password.

    Is there any way to getback as admin or recover password. Please help me.

    Jojo

    Can't you just change the password in the msql database?

    Ya you just need to change it in the database, using something like phpMyAdmin or through SSH if available.

    Cheers,
