    Lost Admin password while importing!

    Hi All,

    I was running once again impex to try it with phpBB. I had a previous problem (importing avatars lost my admin password...) and I reinstalled the board but now I have modified the default style and wished to not make again these changes.

    Is there a way to recover my password?
    I did not found a lost password form and there is no indication where to find it when I'm using the login (top right)?

    Hi All,

    I found the forgotten password link and tried it and the board do not recognize the entered email adress!

    Is there an issue?

        Unfortunately not!
        I made a new install and worked a bit.

          And I retried the import without uploading the avatars which blocked the job.

            Follow the howto. If you have changes, back up your database first, and do not associate the admin user.
            I wrote ImpEx.

              I think the problem was I associated the admin user then... had to do a reinstall... now it appears to be working fine!
