New subject: [xwiki-users] Users can't log anymore

4 Jun 2008

Hi,

It would be probably better to find another method to fix your problem than
changing the DB directly.However, if you can't, I had to change a few
informations directly in the database myself so I know how it works.

So this is how to get to / change users information directly from the
database:
- The users are objects. You will find them in the xwikiobjects table with
the xwo_classname field 'XWiki.XWikiUsers'.
- Every objects has properties. They are listed in the xwikiproperties
table, with the same xwp_id value as the xwo_id of the xwikiobject.
- The xwp_name field tells you what stores that property. The xwp_classtype
tells what type it is.
- According to this type you will have to check the corresponding table. The
xwX_id and xwX_name remain the same as the xwikiproperties fields xwp_id and
xwp_name.
- Finally, the xwX_value field is what you want to get to. And probably what
you might want to change.

And of course, don't delete the table entries, you might corrupt the
database.

Hope it helped

 Hi,

 Since a few day, my users are not able to log anymore into the xwiki
 platform, I suspect that my tests with LDAP may have some thing to do with
 it.

 Thanks to my luck, I am still able to log in with the admin right, and I
 tried to reset all users passwords so that they can login again.

 But this seems not working at all throught the Xwiki administration page,
 why ?

 I am currently trying to erase the password directly into the data base but
 the data model for user is not very trivial.

 I have found that users are managed as XWikiDoc and I still need to find
 how
 the String contenaining the password is linked to which user, I had also a
 look to the xwiki datamodel page but it is tagged as obsolete !

 Could anyone helps me ?

 Thanks in advance,

 Fabien
