Login fails when running the upgrade script

[theXME]

Ok, i have imported the database again but without any success.
Have the vB3 package been updated since the release? Is there any misstake in the files ore someone?
I haven't got any other idea :'(

I am really surprised that someone or vBulletin has not found some easy solution to this problem yet, there are quite a few people having the same problem ...

I attempted the login fix file that Kier posted on another thread to solve this problem, but to no avail.

Yup, feeling the same here. I know it's a Beta, but being stuck in the middle of nowhere is pretty frustrating.

There really isn't an "easy" solution for this -- there are so many possible variables here that it's hard to troubleshoot. Plus none of us have had problems as far as I know (if we did, they'd already be fixed).

I suppose the closest thing to an easy solution would be to password protect the admincp dir through the webserver (ie, like .htaccess) and then disable the password checking ($checkpwd variable in global.php; set it to 0). Just make sure you're absolutely sure it's pwd protected first -- beyond that, you won't have to login to access the CP!

I suppose you mean the admincp/global.php as I haven't found the variable in global.php. Well, I set it to 0, but the login screen still comes up, and still refuses my password.

Has the vB3 new system requirements?
I have PHP 4.0.6 & MySQL 3.x.x
Is this to old?

What do you mean with 'yoursalt'?
I get at the first query this MySQL error:
Unknown column 'salt' in 'field list'

Did you get through the install/upgrade fully?

Same problem here, cant log in after step 7. i hope this inst going to be a big issue it seems to only occur to users who arent in the admin usergroup and had their own usergroup with admin cp access...

According to this script it should be just fine. I'm Running PHP 4.0.6 as well.

Same problem here

Exactly the same problem here. I can log into my vb2 control panel no problem, but when I run upgrade1.php and try to log in with the same username and p/w it just returns me to the login page!

[StephenStrong]

I ran this script located at http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showp...01&postcount=2 this morning, and now I can get into the admincp but when I get to step 3 and click next it sends me back to step 1!
