      Did you by chance create a user named FOG?

      Did you try resetting the password for the FOG user?

      [code]
      sudo passwd fog[/code]

      Make the password “password” as it should be and attempt to log in again.

          I did not create a user named Fog. I did change the default user’s name from fog to fog_admin. I tried resetting the Ubuntu machine’s user password for the account ‘fog’, which succeeded, but this did not resolve my login issue.

            Why did you change the default username? Did you try changing it back to fog?

              I always change default usernames in my environment, out of habit and for security purposes. I changed this account name within the Web GUI, so without access to the Web GUI I’m unsure how to change it back.

                Hi,

                rename the user in the db, install phpmyadmin (apt-get install phpmyadmin) login and rename the user:

                  Renaming the account did not work.

                    Any other suggestions? I already have a couple images saved to the server and would rather not start from scratch, but if I can’t figure this out, I guess that’ll have to be my solution.

                      I’m sorry, I’ve not tried to change my default user, I am trying to think of inventive ways to solve the issue. Please be patient.

                        Try this
                        You know what username you used?

                        Do you know what type you entered it as?

                        FOG Uses MD5 encryption to the passwords to set the password. This way there’s kind of a level of security making cracking your passwords that much more difficult.

                        Try this:
                        [code]mysql -u root [ -p #only if you have a password for your database ] fog
                        select * from users WHERE uName=‘<YOURUSERNAMEHERE>’;
                        update users set uType=‘0’ where uName=‘<YOURUSERNAMEHERE>’;
                        update users set uPass=MD5(‘<YOURNEWPASSWORDHERE>’) WHERE uName=‘<YOURUSERNAMEHERE>’:[/code]

                        Hopefully everything will work properly and you’ll be able to sign into your FOG system.

                        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

                        Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                        Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG
