I have used three different connection strings pointing to three different databases/servers and plus everything was working so I don't think connection string would have something to do with it.
Ok I found answer to my own question basically the 301 redirect rule to add trailing slashes to all URL's were breaking the back office login.
I removed the rule but before i changes the password manually in the table and apparently Umbraco doesn;t like that. So if you go into DB and change password Umbraco wont; take it which is pretty strange!
So I used the Database where the passwords werent changed manually and removed the redirect rule and all worked.
BUt now the dilemma is that I want to add trailing slashes if they are not there and dont know how to do it without breaking the back office but I guess have to raise a separate question for that issue.
Umbraco 7 backoffice login stopped working suddenly
Hi,
This issues has been driving me crazy now. The backoffice was working perfectly fine but suddenly It stopped and I keep getting Login failed for user.
I created a new user in the database, have tried userNoConsole 0 or False but nothing seems to be working!
Looking at fiddler I get 400 bad request error. Some people suggested to clear icURL tracker table but I can't seem to find it in SQl studio.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.!!!
Thanks Adnan
Hi
I think ive had this problem before. I deleted everything in my TEMP folder and then reset IIS and it's APP POOL
From what i remember it sorted it out.
Kind Regards
Neil.
Hi Neil,
Thanks for the response.
Tried that and it didn't work. I think the backend login stopped working after I added 301 redirect rule to add trailing slashes to every URL.
I have taken the rule out cleared the cache reset the app pool but nothing seems to work.
Kind regards, Adnan
Hi Adnan,
You can get this situation if something wrong with connection string, is it ok ?
Thanks, Alex
