Logins not always successful

Hi,

We upgraded to 9.0.6 a few days ago (from a really old version of WebWiz). We transferred over the users from the old tblauthor manually, but we've turned off the encryption.

But we have a lot of users who are unable to login. I can replicate this - I look up in the database and then try logging in using their credentials.

As soon as I run an update query on tblAuthor to change the password I can successfully login.

There were 126 emails over the weekend from users unable to login (some of those because they forgot their password, but most are saying they've got a password reminder email and still it doesn't work).

Which is really bizarre. Any ideas what might be causing this?

Thanks
Dan

We had no choice to turn off encryption (we have 90,000 users, resetting everyone's password and emailing them wasn't feasible).

In the setup file, there is this comment:

'If you do disable Encrypted Passwords - You will also need to directly edit the database to type in the admin password to the Password field in the " & strDbTable & "Author table at record position 1 also edit both common.asp files to change this variable

I am looking for this variable in other common.asp files but can't find it. Is this no longer relevant?

Thanks

It was version 5.x I think - or maybe 4?

When was 6 released?
