I am trying to Zope Management Interface. I replaced old database (data.fs)
file with new one. And now login is not possible through ZMI. I do have
backup copy. Old data.fs does allow login. It seems that passwords are
stored in data.fs

Can you tell me where username and passwords are stored in case of zope? In
data.fs or in inituser?

I have to do it myself and I'll do it. I have already managed to extract
data from one of the object (student), in old data.fs, and saved these 4000
records to csv file. I'll tell you later what method I used to extract it. I
have found about 80% of attributes of this object. There are 6 main objects.
Object which stores most data is student. I'll get data out of other objects
as well.

Now the problem is, how to login to ZMI because I have to add some external
methods. I cannot do it without management username and password.

I did restart the zope after creating the user but login failed.

What I did is just replaced data.fs.

How do I login now?
