Hi -- I have Version 2.661 and suddenly was not able to log in with my username (which was saved and was working fine). I tried to recover my password and it still would not recognize my username although it's in the database info as author.

This is from my developer:

We need to find out what files should be reloaded (to avoid having to replace everything if possible) to make sure mt.cgi works properly (since mt.cgi is the file that the login script is submitting to). I mean, mt.cgi is working enough to display the login page (it submits to itself... if there's a valid username and password, it displays the welcome/admin page, and if not, it displays the login page), but whatever part of the script looks up the information in the database, it's not finding something that I can, using other means, tell is definitely there.

What database are you using? If it is the flat-file Berkeley option, I'm going to venture a guess that your database may be corrupt.

Have you tried MT-Medic?

I am having the same problem but can't install MT-Medic
