| Can someone help me here? I installed EasyMod earlier this week, got no errors but the password I entered during setup is not being accepted. I'vve tried to access the tables via in phpMyAdmin but don't see any EasyMod tables with config information that I might be able to edit. Any suggestions? |

Welcome to RCF, mrbimble!!!
EM Password Change
Here are three ways to fix that:
- Blank EM Password (DB Update File)
Download the following and extract the em_blank_pwd.php from the em_blank_pwd.zip file. Then upload the em_blank_pwd.php to your phpBB folder root and run it from your browser. This will set the EM password to blank.
em_blank_pwd.zip
The path to the em_blank_pwd.php file could look something like this in your browser:
| Code:
|
|
http://yourdomain.com/phpBB2/em_blank_pwd.php
|
Once you have successfully applied this db update, you can delete the file from your server. Then to get into EM, you can leave the password field blank...
Blank EM Password
You can go directly into your phpbb_config table and find the record which starts with EM_password. Copy and paste the following in the following field. This will make it so you can enter EM without any password...
| Code:
|
|
d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e
|
EM Password Utility
Try uploading this file to your admin folder and running it in your browser...
Change EM Password (empw.php)
You have to remove the .txt extension from the empw.php.txt file before you can run it. Remove the .txt extension and upload it into your admin folder. Then run the empw.php file from your browser.
The path should look something like this in your browser:
| Code:
|
|
http://yourdomain.com/phpBB/admin/empw.php
|
You will be asked to provide your new Password twice along with your FTP password. You will probably see a couple of errors, but the utility seems to work fine still. You will want to rename or delete this file when you are finished...

No, that sets the EM Password to blank so that you can get into EM without entering any password. If you want to change it so that EM requires a password again, you can go into EM Settings in your ACP MOD Center and add an EM Password again...
There is also a way to make it so that EM doesn't even ask for a password. If you don't plan to use a password, that is the best option. This is how you do it...
OPEN
mod.txt
FIND
| Code:
|
|
$get_password = true;
|
REPLACE ALL WITH - (4 instances)
| Code:
|
|
$get_password = false;
|
Save and upload back to the admin folder...

If you want an EM Password, you would go into EM Settings in your ACP MOD Center and enter the password that you want, twice. Then press the Submit button and EM is password protected again...
I made EM so you don't have to enter a password. The instructions above make it so that EM doesn't even ask...

I ran the file to clear the password and still got the message to say my password is invalid. I ran the password utility and get this message:

After running the first option from your browser, are you saying that EM didn't allow you to enter EM without entering a password? Did you see any errors when running the em_blank_pwd.php file? Is your table prefix something other than phpbb_ ???
Did you try editing the admin_easymod.php file stored in your admin folder to turn off the password option altogether? The instructions for doing that are about 5 messages above this one:

| The table pre-fix is phpb1! So I guess the install of EM may not have fully worked then even though I don not recall seeing any error messages. |
