Placed yourself as an admin? Changed the usergroup of an existing user or created a new user in AdminCP?

If you can't log into the AdminCP with the user, then they don't actually have Administrator Permissions. Administrator should be their primary usergroup. To fix this, you need to:- Upload the core/install directory to your server.
- Upload tools.php from the do_not_upload directory to the /core/admincp directory.
- Go to yoursite.com/admincp/tools.php
- Enter your Customer ID.
- Choose the option from the menu to elevate the user to Administrator.
- Delete /core/admincp/tools.php
- Delete /core/install.
You should be able to login. If it still doesn't work, then you forgot your password and you will need to update it. You do not need to edit /core/includes/config.php to create an Administrator.Translations provided by Google.
