Beautiful! Just what I needed. Many thanks.
Hi! I'm having similar problem...
I followed instructions, but last message I got after script started was "Looking for Joomla configuration file... found!
". After that my site went unavailable, as did admin portal.
Any suggestions what to do?
Please verify the database login access in configuration.php is valid.
That solved it...thanks...
Thanks a lot
i really need this script.
Thanks

WoooH0OOooo! PERFECT! Thanks You ROCK!
Why isn't it working? I am getting the following error message:
"Cannot find any entry with username: admin, exiting!"
Thank you.
thanks - briliant
It said config file found. I typed in the password but it still did not work. Any suggestions?
What was the complete output? Can you paste it here?
Your script said success that it located the configuration files and that it reset the Joomla Administrator account password to admin. My acct has super administrator privs, but is not named "Joomla Administrator." I am not sure if you script has it for a default admin.
I've updated the script to allow you to choose username. Please download the new version v1.2.
Good luck!
thanks worked this time. It set both username and password to admin. I wonder why it removed my old account? Well, thanks so much for your help.

Looking for Joomla configuration file... found!

Selecting database... selected!
Updating password... done! Password updated to: admin.
Please remove this script if you not using it anymore, its a security risk! Anyone can reset your admin password if this script is not removed.
