Fresh install of ZoneMinder - access denied after enabling Auth

Post by rwebb616 »

Hello, was going through the install and decided to follow the instructions for enabling auth and it appeared to work. Made a random hash and then when saving the configuration I was presented with a login screen.

I tried to login with admin/admin and it doesn't say anything just the login screen flashes. Found this in the web_pho.log:

Code: Select all

05/18/21 15:30:37.264983 web_php[29864].ERR [192.168.11.149] [Login denied for user "admin"] at /usr/share/zoneminder/www/includes/auth.php line 299
I verified by looking at the database that the login name is for sure admin but the password is encrypted so I'm not sure how to tell if that is correct.

I have lots of special characters in the hash - could that have something to do with it?

According to another post I saw the other day, some special characters are not allowed (or will be "missed"), because they are having issues with escaping them in the c++ layer. (my details might be wrong here, since its only of what I can remember).
