I've just installed it, but cannot login to the back office.
I'm not getting any errors and it's just keep taking me back to the login page.

-I did put www. in front of the URL, didn't work.
-I tried typing in a wrong password intentionally and it gives the error message "There is 1 error employee does not exist, or bad password"
-I tried the "Lost Password," got a new password, but still does the same thing. (going back to login page)
-I cleaned cache and cookie, but still no luck.

Store Front works fine. Everything works.

I'm totally lost. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks TropischBruin !!!

The SQL from this members post worked for me:

From 1220174171:

The SQL should be like this:


UPDATE ps_employee SET passwd=md5("hgI3M9S1Uv45wDqkqvGNYF.xAamJY9.zKpykqHCgCxE5m1ozAtQBjFIi123456789") WHERE email="abc@yahoo.com"


The MD5 string is composed by the COOKIE_KEY and the PASSWORD, all together.

Did it work?

Just an update. I wasn't able to work it out, so I tried with a new hosting company and it worked out fine.

One thing I did differently this time was, I changed the folder permissions one by one, which took me about almost an hour. I don't know if that helped.

I have not tried the above method since my problem was solved a couple of weeks ago.

But thanks anyways for your supports. :)
