Can't login cacti

[vila]

Hi All

I installed Cacti version 1.2.11 with CentOS 8, After completed installation. I can't login default username and password: admin | admin.
Please help to advise how can i log with correct username and password?

I tried reset password in sql, But it still not working.

MariaDB [cacti]> update user_auth set password=md5('admin') where username='admin';

I appreciate your advice and help.

There is a fix in 1.2.12 for this. Comment out the

Code: Select all

$cacti_cookie_domain

line in your include/config.php

Same issue in 1.2.12 and it is commented out.

Same issue on 1.2.12. - It doesn't even flag a RED error if you put bogus credentials in, just loops back to login screen.

Already tested the following:

use cacti;
GRANT ALL ON cacti.* TO cacti@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'REMOVED';
update user_auth set password=md5('REMOVED') where username='admin';
update user_auth set enabled=('on');
UPDATE settings SET value='' WHERE name='auth_cache_enabled';

php.ini
session.auto_start = 1 (tried with 0 and 1)

php -v

cannot login with default username and password
and I already try: update user_auth set password = md5('admin') where username = 'admin'; to update the password but still nothing happen.

Thank all. After i replaced cacti version 1.2.12. It is working fine..

Same issue here still with 1.2.12, looks like a few users are having it.

[somdaraz]

Having the same problem. After install everything ok and can login.
Next day, unable to login. Also even using wrong credentials doesn't show error on login page.

Any ideas why this is happening ?
Thanks,

Lots of threads on this issue:

I was able to get into my system by disabling my direct URL and SSL cert going into /cacti and not changing the alias to /

I will need some more time to put it back together.

Thanks to the user in this thread who pointed it out: $url_path = '/'; in config.php

A little more work to do, but this might be the solutoin.
