I have moved one of my Umbraco sites to a new server (Zipped it up backed up the DB etc..) and now I cannot login to the admin on the new site? Its working but cannot get into the admin section :(
Did you change the membership settings? eg from clear to hashed?
You can also check the database table umbracoUsers. if the passwords aren't hashed you can see it there. If they are hashed change the membership settings to clear and change the password in the db. Then when you are logged in change the membership settings back to hashed.
Just to bring this up again - Bit weird but this site had a small restricted membership area, now its completely dead?? I have deleted all the members, Groups & Types. Re-created them, but still get this error when I try to access the restricted area whether I'm logged in or not

Hey Thomas - We do I change the passwords from hashed to clear?
In the web.config. Take a look at the wiki entry: http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/how-tos/membership-providers/umbracomembershipprovider-properties
