Cannot log in to wordpress site

I suspect you haven’t cleaned the site and/or database as thoroughly as you need to. Try working your way through these resources:

Thanks for your replay. I’m sure that my installation is clean, because i whiped out my serwer and installed a new fresh copy of wordpress. My problem occured as soon as I connected it to my database. I used SQL query from

but there is nothing suspicious. Is there anything else I should look for in my database? I’m never cleaned one, so I honestly don’t know. I removed one wierd user, but that’s all. I still can’t get in.

@kordas88 I assume you resolved this issue given the time frame ?

I have exactly the same issue. Fresh install 3 times (database also) and still no luck.

I was hoping you could let me know what your ultimate fix was ?

thanks

Hi there!

It was actually quite simple. My database wasn’t clean. There were some random characters added to my password and since it is encrypted, I didn’t spot it right away. I simply created new user and deleted previous one. It has been working fine since then.

Thanks for the feedback.

In my case it is a totally new DB that I create each time I do the install so I guess it can’t be the data which is a shame, I was hoping for glimmer of hope ??

cheers
