Login denied for user "admin"

Hi all,

I have enabled authentication and with the standard USER/PASSWORD it works fine.
When I change the password to a new one the following error appear in my log:
Login denied for user "admin"
The complete line is:
2019-04-07 10:05:39 web_php 5659 WAR Login denied for user "admin" /usr/share/zoneminder/www/includes/auth.php 58
2019-04-07 10:05:39 web_php 5659 WAR Login denied for user "admin" /usr/share/zoneminder/www/includes/auth.php 58
How can avoid this ?

Thanks

where did you enable ZM auth? how did you change the admin password?

I have found another strange behaviour, if I try to download an export of logs from the web page I get an Internal Server Error (500).

I have restarted the server many times, but the problem still persist.
Then last night after a black out and restart of the server the problem disappear.

Strange ....

before the blackout forced a complete restart of the system did you restart Apache at any point after the installation of zoneminder?
I am wondering if the restart of ZM might have done it.

all of this is speculation because I have no idea what operating system and version is,nor do I know what web server or PHP version you are dealing with. Basically saying that knowing more information on the specifics of your setup would help

Hi,

I have restarted the server 5 or 6 times to install Ubuntu package upgrade.

I'm using Apache and PHP provided from the standard repository of Ubuntu 19.04.
