Hi I am having an issue with the admin password.

I change it to a password that is 16 chars in length and I can not login again. I then download the database from the server cut & paste the admin info from the original database and I can get in.

Is there a limit to the size of a password?

The field you type the password into only allows 15 characters to be entered, it more likely didn't take the 16th character and being that password fields display ****** in them you may not have noticed.

Cool issue solved, you are spot on and correct when you say that the 16th char did not get included, I have used the 15 and was in first time.
 
Many thanks.
