[Koha] problem logging in

I am trying to log in again to a koha box… I can access it at
http://libkoha-intra.meu.edu.lb/, and access it with the credentials for a
borrower, but the admin password I have for koha_library (stored in
/etc/koha/sites/library/koha-conf.xml) does not work… I even cached it in
my browser, as this is a test box…



Am I looking in the wrong place? Or how can I reset it?



Thanks!



Ron

I can create new users from this... but cannot create any "super user" so
can't log in to configure the system...

The command I used is

/usr/share/koha/bin/devel/create_superlibrarian.pl --userid
koha_library --password password --branchcode
AKL --categorycode=S --cardnumber=A12349

What I really want is to log in as koha_library with the full admin
rights...

Login and password from koha-conf.xml it is no longer possible login into
Koha staff.
Script create_superlibrarian.pl creates koha new user with rights
superlibrarian - log in from this acount.

What version KOHA you have?

Hi Ronald,

newer versions of Koha don't allow accessing the staff interface with
the database user anymore as this always caused problems.

Installing a newer version from scratch, the web installer will guide
you through adding a superlibrarian user.

If you have updated from an older version or forgot the password, you
can use the script below. Please make sure you run this from the
koha-shell for your instance:

sudo koha-shell <instancename>

The superlibrarian user created will have the full admin rights.

Hope this helps,

Katrin

Thank you Katrin... I think I understand the problem... given the multiple
URLs we can use for Koha... the user I was creating only got me into the
catalog, not the administration... change URL, and bingo!

Thanks to all

Ron
