Hi, first timer so go gentle on me. I have installed YAF locally and it all seems to run ok. I went through the setup routine, and I see the forum running fine. I installed it with the web platform installer, but prefer to have it on my local IIS, so I copied the files into a new web, set it up in IIS, and also changed the connection string to link it to the db with a trusted connection on my local system. Everything seems to be running fine. I tried to login with the email and password I created during install, but it gives me the 'The user name or password entered is incorrect. Please try again.' error. I did a password lookup, but it says the email cannot be found. In the db, I checked the users table, and my email is in there, along with a 'guest' account. I see the password is 'na', which I assume is because a hash is used instead now (the ProviderUserKey looks like a hash so I guess that's the one). I checked the other fields, and it doesn't look like there is anything obvious that would make this user not visible to the system such as a field where this record is turned off. I noted my passwords used for various things during install carefully, but have tried each as the password for my login just in case I got them transposed, but no joy. Even if the pw was wrong, it doesn't explain why the password recovery cannot see the account that is in the users table - the email address definitely is the same, no leading or trailing spaces either, and case matches too (though I guess that probably isn't a factor). So I guess 2 questions: (1) Why does the system not see this account? (2) How can I reset it to see this account, or get some kind of admin account setup that I can use for the site? Any help appreciated.

Thanks for the response. I grabbed the latest one from Codeplex and followed the documentation steps there. I got the installer to fire up, but it choked with an error on the step after it asks for test email details. When I check the db, it seems the table structure is there, but there is no data in it. Not sure if it is supposed to add some data in, but the message suggests so. Server Error in '/YAF_tomeCMS2' Application.

It looks like the installer did not complete. If the tables are empty, it ran as an upgrade. Try creating a blank database with a new user and password and re-running the installer against the new database. After all the steps of the installation are complete, it is supposed to take you to the forums.

Thanks - that did the trick - i had the 'Upgrade BBCode extensions box checked'. I am up and running locally now and can login as admin too.
