Description of problem: A couple months ago, I made a rookie mistake and lost ~600 saved passwords. Lots of pain since. Anyway, trying to reset password on bugs and identity does not result in ability to logon to either. Finally gave up and created a new account which works. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. request password reset 2. follow link on reset email 3. unable to logon; get wrong password.
Can you describe your procedure a little bit further? 1. go to https://identity.mageia.org/forgot_password 2. Enter your Email from the original user 3. Recieve Email with PW-reset link 4. Follow the link and create a new PW 5. Login with new PW and old user Name I setup a completeley new user and did the above procedure for him and it worked flawlessly. (In reply to Pierre Fortin from comment #0) > 3. unable to logon; get wrong password. So please describe it a little bit further.
Did all that... your steps 1-4. At step 5, I get the error. Entered pf@pfortin.com (my long time email here) and got: Email sent. Operation was successful. Check your mail for password reset instructions. From: noreply@mageia.org To: pf@pfortin.com Subject: Mageia Identity Management - Forgotten password Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2022 09:55:32 +0100 X-Spam-Level: Dear Pierre Fortin, Your Mageia account has been requested to change the password. If you did not do this, or you do not want to change your password; you can just do nothing. To reset your password, please follow the link below. https://identity.mageia.org/forgot_password/confirm?secret=863A338E-954F-11EC-8E6C-B85037CFFBF4 Clicked this link ^^^^^ New password field has 15 dots; no idea what is in there, so I delete it, and insert new password in both fields. Interesting... I'm logged in as pfortin@pfortin.com as I'm doing the reset (on pf@pfortin.com) in another browser window. The reset is done on pf@pfortin.com; but the login screen displays pfortin@pfortin.com. Changed it to pf@ and login fails. Switched to another userid and browser... I can login to the new account. Trying to change old account's password from here... This userid/browser has never been used to access the old pf@ account. Same problem... password change "appears" to have been accepted. In this case, the login fields were empty. Filled them in and login fails. Any chance that account is locked out? https://www.golinuxhub.com/2014/08/how-to-check-lock-status-of-any-user/
