CB 1.9 Password Change not working was created by mattp
Hi Joomlapolis,

I have CB on one of my client sites. When users change their passwords, or use the forgot password button the password entered / generated does not work. I have tried to manually change the password in the admin backend and the same thing happens. However if I change their password using the Joomla users backend the password is OK.

Please help as I have a number of users that now cant access the system.

CB - 1.9
Joomla - 2.5.9
PHP - 5.4.12

Regards
Matt

After changing a password within CB check the database table _users to ensure it's encoded. If it's plaintext then something installed maybe preventing the encryption. If is the case then ensure all CB plugns are up to date as a few could've caused this.

Hi Kyle,

When I change the password to "password" using CB, _users shows the password as:

348887b769e7694a5d8ad0bc059f0898:T98JjjQQKr83RiOOl2FoO1jAxrTUZ8ya

When I change the password to "password" using Joomla user manager, _users shows the password as:

8d501f422fc24b3795761505fea0e7bd:PPhF1IFAfIvioaZcVYZ9NATYFhwlzuEA

Its getting encrypted, but not not the same for each method of changing.

Regards
Matt

It won't be the same encryption. The main take away is it is being encrypted. Are you using randomly generated passwords or are users supplying their own passwords?

Hi Kyle,

User generated. I am manually applying these passwords in the Joomla Admin backend.

However, when users are resetting their lost passwords they are setting them themselves.
