Hi there,

Suggestions for this problem would be much appreciated. I’m running a clean install of Revo RC2 and needed to reset my password. Email recieved without a problem, activation link clicked - password fails. You need to create a totally clean browser session to resubmit the forgotten password request, but regardless it consistently fails.

Clearly not being able to get in to my install is a problem - any ideas?

Definitely file it as a bug in JIRA: http://bugs.modxcms.com/

In the meantime is there a way to hack my way back in to the install? I’d rather not lose my work if I can help it.

Just truncate the modx_session table in phpmyadmin or through another mysql client program. This will kill the sessions.

The same issue with me

1. How to Reset Password using login Module.

2. I want to reset my password without click on activation link in forget password email template.

3. I want only login by auto generated password in reset password email template.

Please give me any suggestion to reset password only by Auto Generated password in email without click on activation link.
