I successfully converted a 3.8.4 VB board to SMF2 RC2, but now I can't login??

I setup an admin account when installing SMF initially, same name but different password as another admin account on the old board. Now after the convert I can't login with any passwords.

All the members from the new SMF installation were wiped during conversion, and the members from vBulletin imported. So only with that old password, login should work. Please make sure you clean your browser cookies, and perhaps cache just in case, and try again.
In case your browser is saving passwords, might be worth making sure it doesn't use the saved password.

mafia7: as said in your other topic, please consider using only English in this board. You have an answer there, too.

The authentication mechanism is different, but SMF 2.0 has integrated the vbulletin authentication mechanism, so logging in should just work. Sure, it will change to SMF's hashing after the first login, for performance reasons.
For SMF 1.1.x, a login fix is provided in the vbulletin converter support topic.

I tried and tried to convert my vBulletin 3.8 to SMF 1.1 stable with no luck so I have it a try with 2.0 and it worked perfectly the first time.

All logins are requiring a double sign-in the first time, but after that all is working well with no issues.

Glad to be back with SMF and plan to stay.
