I can't log in!! Never had a problem before..

  • Hi,

    I went to update some infer on my website but I can’t get in! Not a password issue (it’s saved thankfully) but it’s a new problem. I was sent a verification code from google but I don’t know if that is related – i thought it odd at the time because I never asked for one, it just appeared on my phone as a text message.
    Now I get this when I try to log in:
    Runtime path not writable, please follow this tutorial to enable change the file permissions of this path: /home/schoo408/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ose-firewall//assets/ writable and the tutorial that is there has a faulty link.

    Have tried with firewall on and off. NO difference.

    I am feeling very stressed! Please can someone help?
    Thanks

  • The plugin in the /ose-firewall/ folder is the problem. If you delete the folder

    /wp-content/plugins/ose-firewall/

    you will effectively uninstall the plugin without erasing its settings. That, at least, should let you login.

    You’ll have to use FTP or your Hosting Control Panel’s File Manager to do that.

    Thank you I will give it a try. Any idea why it has happened so it doesn’t happen again?

    I’ve never used that plugin, but I would suggest you look around here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/ose-firewall

    If you don’t find any answers, post there.

    Thanks! I just discovered that one too. looks like it was done automatically bc I def didn’t do it. Found the folder and ready to delete just wanted to check what I was deleting.

    Cheers!
