Login to administration not working

[dodo007]

Hello guys.

I'm new to Elxis and i really need help because i installed the cms and the front end page is working fine but when i try to login to my administration or create a user it does not work. It seams that my usename it's recognized but the password is not. I changed the password in my database and tried but nothing happens. The creation of a new user does not work, every time i try to create a user i get the message: our request dropped for security reasons. Please try again.

I'm running Elxis on my loval WAMP server. I put the site in a separate directory and made put this in my htaccess file: RewriteBase /elexis/ i didn't change anything else in the file.

Thanks

Hello dodo007 and welcome to our community,
There is no need to change the local folder of Elxis in case that you can't login to the administrator area. Elxis CMS 4.x use a certain method of encryption so you can't paste a password manually to the relative database field. I am going to send you a private message with the encrypted password. Don't forget to change the password to a new one by the time the login process will be completed successfully. Ok?

Can you login to the administrator area? I will send you a PM.

Sessions don't work on your site.
To exclude bad session setup on your php installation make sure the session handler in Elxis configuration is database

in configuration.php
private $SESSION_HANDLER = 'database';

I saw your other post and it looks that you have a session problem cause you have installed Elxis in a sub-folder and you haven't configured htaccess properly.
