Admin can't login and captcha error

[sivaganesh]

I (admin) of my forum - vb5 beta 19 - can't login. I am sure about the login password. When I try to reset the password, cache key match doesn't work. Tried many times, it still displaying - incorrect captcha. Even when I try to register a new account, same captcha issue.
what to do?

Have you attempted to disable plugins?

To disable the plugin/hook system completely without accessing the Admin CP options, you need to edit includes/config.php and add the following code: define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);


With this code in config.php, no plugins will run at all.

To re-enable the plugin system, remove the code again from config.php.

I don't have any plugins.

We would recommend using Q&A over reCapcha
