Hallo,
Got 1.4b3 installed with very few problems after upgrading from 1.26b2.
I have encountered a problem with aspects of this install which I have
not seen in the past:
Has the method in which the admin password is encrypted changed? I
discovered this problem using the following procedure:
Three tables, member, person and possibly grp have some influence on
this issue. In person I have two users... the admin and a test user
with no admin privelages. In grp I have two groups, the admin group-1
and a test user group-2. In member admin is a member of 0,1,2 while
the test user is a member of 2.
Admin has a plain password of "**password" assigned in the database,
while the test user has an encrypted password. No matter what I attempt,
I cannot logon to the admin ID using the given password. However, the
test user can logon just fine.
Next, I dropped all the optional test groups and users, and still could
not logon. I then dropped all entries from member except the userid
linked to group 0. I still cannot log in. When I modify the entry to
group id 1.... magically, I can log on with no problems, however, since
the admin no longer belongs to the mythical admin group, it can no
longer change certain aspects in the system. This includes creation of
new styles and modifying certain attributes in the host entries.
To verify this, I dropped all the member, group and person entries and
then created a new ID directly in mysql which held the 0 group id. It
did not work as well.
