    Hi!

    I updated an ond Evo-site to 1.0.10, which worked great so far. BUT:

    After entering admin-name and password in the manager login page, I get only this message box (see attachment). Text is the "manager_lockout_message". The english translation from the lang-file reads:

    You are currently logged into the Content Manager. If you would like to close your login session please click the "Logout" button. <p />To go to your startup or home page click the "Home" button.

    So I cannot reach the proper manager pages and I'm locked out of my site. And why is this message here in the first place? Deleted all cache-files in assets/cache, no effect.

    Any ideas? Can you help?

    Thanks!

      I don't think I have a solution for you.

      I might try allot of things, maybe start with a other browser.
      Maybe you can reset the login or use forgot manager login?

      Try the forum for solutions, google "modx lockout evolution" or smt.

      What version did you upgrade?

        other Browser: check!

        forgot manager login: does not seem to work. But the login/password in principle works. I am logged in after entering credentials, as I can check with a gallery plugin that allows for the user to change images from the frontend. This works.

        Version: 1.0.3 (Yes, an old, unattended installation …) to 1.0.10.

        I also asked the hoster to upgrade PHP/MySQL to the latest versions, re-installed the MODX-Upgrade to no avail.

        I'm at wits end here. And my client gets nervous … and he has a knife …

          I'm freestyling here, maybe you have special characters in your password?

            Solved with help from the MODX-Team:

            I don't know why, but my admin user had "allow_manager_access" set to 0 in table "modx_user_settings". Setting it to 1 in phpMyAdmin solved it.

            Easy if you know what to look for.

            Thanks to everyone!
