Log in Problem

Post by jrego »

I have just installed cacti on fedora 9. i got the configuration page. then i got the login page. tried admin/admin and it says "Error: Access Denied, user account disabled."

Can anyone help me? Like i said this is a new install. I already did update user_auth set password=md5('admin') where username='admin'; to make sure the password was correct but i need to know how to enable it. I have no idea why it would be disabled.

thanks

Do this:

mysql -u username -p password cacti

where username = user of the cacti database
password = password of that user

then execute this:

update user_auth set `enabled` = 'on' where `username` ='admin'

see if that fixes it for you.

then it sound as though you haven't created your cacti database correctly.

go to a mysql prompt and do this.

select * from 'user_auth';

see if you get anything.
