I cannot login to perform Admin functions. Is there a way for me to change this using my FTP? or any other way to access my admin area?

Upload getadmin.php from the "extras" folder of the vB zip file. Use it (http://www.yoursite.com/forums/getadmin.php) to restore admin access to an account. -
Be sure you delete this file after you've promoted yourself to Admin. Otherwise someone else could do the same thing.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

OK I did that and it still hasn't allowed me to login in using my login name and password. Any other tips? Does this error message mean anything? D:\web_public\mysite\forums\admin\getadmin.php on line 6Comment

Upload getamdin.php to the forums directory - not the admin directory.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)
