After a week in complete Drupal hell, I finally got things going when...all of a sudden I can't login anymore.
Today, I've enabled clean URLs and Aggregator2.
I was adding a feed to Aggregator2 when it said "there is no username Ayza" or something similar upon save. I WAS logged in as user-1 with that username.
By mistake I managed to hit Masquerades "Switch users" (which I just turned on and hadn't added another user) - and was logged out. My username and password was only met with "unknown user or password".
After reading in the forum, I have - to no avail:
1) patched the user_module as described in this issue: Login not always successful on first attempt
2) cleared the Firefox cache and cookies, and also tried with Safari to no use.
3) emptied the session table in MySQL
4) dropped user table and user role table in MySQL and reinstalled these tables from the installation files.
5) tried logging in both from the frontpage and from /?=user/login
Despite all this, I still get "unknown user or password". Also, if I log in at the frontpage of my site I get a weird URL: "http://localhost:8888/fixxxa/index?destination="
It's weird that I don't get "create first user" when everything should be wiped. Is there any remaining tables/files I need to delete to create a new first user?
As you can see from the URL, I'm on a local machine so I can't create a new user and then get an e-mail sent to me. Creating the user by itself is no problem, but I can't read the password. I read about the method of changing user ID's here on the forum, but I guess that's useless unless I have a password.
