Unable to login to my askbot site as admin

Hi

I'm unable to login back to my askbot site as admin.

Is this an issue with cache? or is this a bug? Thanks.

What happens when you try to log in? Are other users able to log in?

How did you log in to you admin account? With password or other method? Which? Try to recover your account by email.

I login with a password. Also I had not configured emails so i don't have option for recovery. @Evgeny

Do you have a hosted site at askbot.com, if so, then tell which site and I will help you. Most likely you've made the typo in your password the first tim or forgot it.

If you are hosting your own site then you can do this:

python manage.py shell
>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> me = User.objects.get(username='myusername')
>>> me.set_password('my_new_password')
>>> me.save()
>>> exit()

Fine! Changed admin password, but I'm still not able to login to /admin (Django administration), is it right? Another admin user?
