RC3 - Login user and password?????

[Hal Davey]

I installed RC3 and when I try and open the editors (/input folder) I get asked for a login username and password. What username and password? I tried the mysql DB username and password that is in the connect.php and it was rejected. Because there are so many usernames and passwords these days, the page should specify WHICH are required; server, or ? How do I get to the menus?
Thanks for any help,

Default username and pass to the editors are

username: admin
password: pass

I just changed my domain name and when I call up the editor pages, I cannot access. I used "admin" and "pass" on the EE login page, but no luck.

FTP is working, just can't access EE editors.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Alan,

Hello Pekka,

Just changed my domain name and cannot access editors, tried using "admin" and "pass" but no luck. (I did not have to log in before I changed my domain name). FTP and databse access is fine.


Try deleting the cookies related to EE. Or try another browser (e.g. Firefox). You can change username and pass with PhpMyAdmin tool, too, but you'll need to input pass with "MD5" for that field (on phpMyAdmin's input form dropdown). So, in PhpMyAdmin:

- click your database name on left
- click table "ee_admin" on left
- click "browse" on right, then
- click edit icon
- type new username to row "ee_admin_name"
- type new password to row "ee_admin_pass" AND select function "MD5" from dropdown menu
- click "Go"

Also all 360 images now have the wrong path. Is there an easy way to fix?

Yes, just change paths in path editor (copy/paste helps here a lot). Also check that you ftp passes and paths and correct.

Let me know if you can't solve the problems with above advice.

Hello Pekka,

Thanks. I got it. I had already uploaded everything twice after missing a setting about colorspace. (I wanted to leave images as sRGB)

So this saves a lot of work.

Appreciate your quick response.
