I forgot the administrator password

[Milotin]

I was a long time gone and i didn't had time to use the typolight features in order to create an website.
It seems i forgot my administrator password. Is there any way i can reset it ?
At least before it said invalid login

now, everytime i want to login i get this error

"The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://typolight-2.7.2/typolight/

The following error was encountered:

Unable to determine IP address from host name for typolight-2.7.2

The dnsserver returned:

Name Error: The domain name does not exist.

This means that:

The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL.
Check if the address is correct.
"

I'd be glad if you'd help me asap.
Thanks.

Best regards,
Alex

Did you ever figure this out?

In order to solve this issue you would have to get into the database itself. phpMyAdmin.

Are you able to do this?

Hi Contao ussrs
I am not a developer, its my website, I need to log in to update information, which I have not done in a long time.
The SEO company which we fired 6 months ago must have changed the password.

What do I do??? Can someone help me please, provide simple steps on how to reset the password...

I read that I need to login to PHP , how do I do that?

Many Thanks!!!!

You should use PHPmyAdmin (a database tool which may be launched via your webhosters control panel).

If you have managed to get into the database, look out für tl_user table. Navigate to your personal account (which you can identify via your user name) and set the password field to the value of 8e0107bf1c7fbeef6538dff7173aa458e7dd585e:8c37627a0 e2c606189e7765
After this, your password will be reset123.
