I was reading the administrator's guide and I came acrross the need to use the EMERGENCY USER. I accidentally changed the admin password. I was trying to change another user accounts password and instead changed that one. I typed in 43046 as the password, but it made it 8 characters when i went back, before I knew it I accidentally logged out of zope and now I am stuck with the admin password as some unknown 8 characters. I treid the emergency user and it doesn't work
I went to command prompt in Windows 2000 and i went to C:/Python22 then ran "python C:\PROGRA~1\NFHL\zpasswd.py access" from the prompt I filled out the form but the emergency user does not work.
I tried logging in through my browser. Am I supposed to log in a differnt way wth the emergency user? I just need to change the admin password back.
Hi, Daniel Make sure the access file you are working with is in your zope root directory. Likely, something like the following will work (untested) : "python C:\PROGRA~1\NFHL\zpasswd.py C:\PROGRA~1\NFHL\access" Then restart zope so it knows about the new user. -- Jim Washington
