through a stupid mistake I lost the login of MODx.
I have continued access to all files at the server.
Where can I change the login user and password.
Kind regards, Henk-Jan

The username and password are stored in the database. I think the table name changes slightly depending which version of MODx you are using but it's quite obvious when you log onto it via phpMyAdmin (e.g. modx_users or modx_managers_users).
The problem you will have is that the password is a hash value, not the actual password. See BobRay's solution:
