I am having trouble finding a solution. I am running a site that has about 50 users that are manually entered. I am requiring the users on the first login to create their own password. This fails to work and just refreshes the user-profile/profile?layout=edit page upon hitting the Submit button. Any ideas?
for solving problem you can add a record to a table users,that have a parameter like fresh="true",when users go to website and change password.the fresh parameter is got fresh="false" for ever. and you can edit component users for do your idea...............
my offer you can use the source that users can sign up only with logging to their email like gmail,email

Basically whenever I try to login to the Magento admin, it initially works fine, but as soon as I click on a link, it boots me out. When I log back in, everything works fine.
There's also some weird behavior in that I have to clear the cache anytime I need to run a sales report (or any other report.)
what is your admin url? Magento doesnt like things like "localhost" if your not setting up a www.website.com then it will cause problems with your admin access it will let you log-in but not actually access the information. If your creating a test environment i suggest you use the ip address as the url. I hope that helps
After migrating from an amazon instance to GoDaddy hosting, I am unable to login to Magento backend when using the same username and password,
Adding a new user with a new password gives the same error: access denied
web/unsecure/base_url are set correctly in the database table core_config_table
My cookies are setup as follows
web/cookie/cookie_lifetime 3600
web/cookie/cookie_path NULL
web/cookie/cookie_domain NULL
web/cookie/cookie_httponly 1
web/cookie/cookie_restriction 0
Please let me know any thoughts you may have as I have searched google many times and none of the guides help, and I am starting to feel like I am the only one with this specific issue.
Thanks in advance!
Found the Solution myself after many weeks,
Save this file as newadmin.php in your magento root, then uncomment and replace the credentials with the ones you want, then go to example.com/newadmin.php
Voila!!!
The reason is because administrator permissions were contravened, as far as I know this is the only way to add a working user.
Unfortunately one problem led to the next and I started getting index.php inserted into all of my links when I go into admin panel ex:
example.com/index.php/admin/********
I would be fine with this if it didn't send it to a 404 page, the correct page is:
example.com/admin/********
when I remove index.php from the url it works, but if I click on any link or try to save chages in admin panel, it reinserts the index.php in the url and doesn't POST anything to the page, because it gets sent to a 404 page
Click This Link if you want to follow my bug-fixing adventures:
try after delete var/* folder for remove cache
if not worked then change password from db admin_user table then try it.
Did you name your database and users exactly the same as before?
Some CPanels will automatically choose the first part of the MSQL database for you...
check app/etc/local.xml and see if it's all correct

My client has Joomla! ver 1.5.14 installed on the remote server. I logged in using the url /administrator/ with login 'admin'. When landed on the admin page after successful login, I observed that the top menu has only two elements, Site and Help. All other elements like Menus, Content, Components, Extensions etc are not there.
Also I do not find any way to access those elements (menus, components). There are not icons on the screen to access them.
Could someone please help me figure out this issue?
Thanks in advance

MulC
EDIT:
Following is the screenshot of the admin page

user admin belogs to the group 'Super Administrator'
Thank you
It's very strange that this should happen unless your client has been fiddling with the core Joomla files or database tables.
Update the site to the latest version of the 1.5 series (1.5.26)
Download the full Joomla package, extract the administrator, components, includes, libraries, modules and plugins folder, zip them up and upload to the server, replacing the current folder. Not to worry, this will only override the core files which I assume haven't been edited.
Try downloading and installing another admin template.
Else the only other thing I can think of is reconstructing the website which might take a while, depending on the amount of work that went into it.
In Joomla! 1.5.x a common security step was to create an alternate "super user" and downgrade the default admin account to a standard registered. Due to issues in early versions of 1.5 though it wasn't recommended to delete or disable this account.
This sounds like what is going on with your admin account.
You can check this by looking at the database checking the table jos_users look for the username admin and see what it's usertype is set to. At the same time look for a user that has an usertype of Super Administrator (yes, really the words Super Administrator).
Once you have the username of the Super Administrator, you will need to find the password. If the client doesn't know it then you will have to recover the admin password.
I'm building a component for the backend. I don't want the users who will access it to access ANYTHING else in the backend except for this component.
I tried following these two instructions:
http://www.aclmanager.net/blog/general/31-how-to-add-basic-acl-support-to-your-extension
http://docs.joomla.org/Developing_a_Model-View-Controller_%28MVC%29_Component_for_Joomla!1.6_-_Part_14#Describing_the_ACL
I made a new User Group with a parent of public and allow admin login (which would lock them out of everything) and then tried adding the ACL code from those links above with permissions to create and edit but I just get a blank screen (not even a logout link). The "Debug Permissions Report" showed the correct permissions but nothing's showing up.
Any ideas? My next step is to manually go through every component and not allow access to that new User Group but it seems like there's an easier way.
Thanks!
In Joomla! 2.5 we regularly create "Content" only backend users that have access only to the 'com_content' component.
Going back through our steps the only thing you haven't specified is adding the new user group to a View Access Level. If you're using the standard sample content installed when setting up a Joomla! website you can add your new user group to the "Special" view access (although any will do).
If a new group has 'admin login' privileges it can login but without a View Access level it can't see anything.. it's a subtle difference but it's the way Joomla! works.
