Reset password request after ver 5.4.1 Update

[funkman733]

Hi to all,

after the last update to 5.4.1 version, I had a message to change the password for more security. I had close the message and I was able to enter to the dashboard.

Today I have tried to enter to the dashboard but after I have entered the Username and Password, I have the message below, but I don't receive any email to reset the password, and I cannot enter to the dashboard. What should I do to solve the issue?

Important note about improved password security   Recently, the Revive Adserver software has been updated to a new version, which implements a more modern and much safer method of storing passwords. To be able to log in and continue using Revive Adserver you must set a new password first. Check your inbox for a password reset email! A password reset email has been sent to the email address associated with your username. Please open the email, and click the link in it. This will display a screen that enables you to enter your new password. It can take a few minutes before the email arrives. If you don't see the email in your inbox, make sure to also check your spam folder.

No responses to this issue at all?

Is the forum and its community totally dead? 

The issue still persists and help would be appreciated. 
 

Kind regards

Did you just run a new updater over the older installation then? 

Thanks in advance for your answer.
Kind regards

There is a wonderful stub, just put it right to PHP.INI:

sendmail_path = /bin/cat > "/tmp/mail_`date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S`"

You just need to make sure that you have /bin/cat and write rights to /tmp/

An email with a link to reset the Administrator password will appear there as a File.

@jooruThanks for sharing 

I'm going to try and test your suggestion as I'm stuck too with this horrible update and no devs are responding... 

Appreciated!  

Kind regards

sendmail_path = /bin/cat > "/tmp/mail_`date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S`"

Response from above code

sendmail_path: command not found

I tried resetting admin password using PHPMyAdmin with MD5 but I know that isn't the current standard and I've not found the answer. I did an upgrade following the instructions for upgrade and everything was working until I changed the database user.  Revive is working except that admin can not log in.

I ended up with tossing away my glowes and reinstalled the whole darn thing. There was no other way around this issue.

sendmail_path is not a comnand! It's a line in PHP.INI file.

Check once more, please. It's about config, not run comnand.

I'm just saying what I did. I just could not bother spending more time on it. So I reinstalled from scratch. 

Could never get it working with sendmail. Even reinstalled sendmail on the server.

If you find a way to do it then I´m sure other Revive members would appreciate if you share the solution.
