Update to 3.0.1 = can't log in to admin mode

I’ve changed the admin password according to the “Through phpMyAdmin” instructions; https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Resetting_Your_Password#Through_phpMyAdmin

Still can’t log in… ??

Does your site itself work, without logging in?

Yes, everything else seems to work.

I got the same problem.

Ok, got it. It is the plugins. Rename the plugins directory in wp-content to something else, then you’re able to log in at least. I found that it was the minimeta-widget that blocked my login. No clue why…

recus, thanks!

I found out that the wp-db-backup plugin blocked my log in. Wonder what these plugins have in common…?

Sometimes plugins break when WordPress is upgraded, unfortunately.
