Hi,

I tried to lock my forum using the maintenance mode to do some upgrading. Now i cant even access it via admin id & password.

Please help!

What happens when you try to login?

you can turn maintenance mode off in Settings.php.

########## Maintenance ##########
# Note: If $maintenance is set to 2, the forum will be unusable!  Change it to 0 to fix it.
$maintenance = 0; # Set to 1 to enable Maintenance Mode, 2 to make the forum untouchable. (you'll have to make it 0 again manually!)
$mtitle = 'Maintenance Mode'; # Title for the Maintenance Mode message.
$mmessage = 'Okay faithful users...we\'re attempting to restore an older backup of the database...news will be posted once we\'re back!'; # Description of why the forum is in maintenance mode.


Just make sure $maintenance = 0;

Thanks. I guess some cookies problem. I save 2 login on same pc, 1 admin & 1 normal user, both using same password. I tried login with my other pc and i see my normal user stuck in it.

Used the other pc to login with admin id, undo the maintenance mode, goto the main pc and logoff my normal user.
