[SOLVED] "Incorrect password" on wiki

Post by wesleyac »

hi folks!

i just signed up on the forum so that i can get a wiki account - i have an account, and have added myself to the wiki group, but when i attempt to log on to the wiki, i get the following error:

Code: Select all

Login error
Incorrect password entered. Please try again.
what gives? it's been a few hours since i signed up - is creating the mediawiki user a daily cron, or something like that?

in any case, i wrote up some of the edits i was going to make as a blog post instead, but hopefully i can get credentials to clean up the wiki soon :)

i ended up figuring this out - my password contained invalid characters apparently - i changed it to something a bit more tame and now i can log into my wiki account.
