ProcessLogin: admin - Login failed

[opalepatrick]

I have seen many different responses for this problem, but none of the solutions work. This is a new install (the latest version) that has allowed me to log in as admin several times. But has stopped now. I have used the forgot password reset and I get exactly the same message - ProcessLogin: admin - Login failed 

I do not think I have installed new modules since the last successful login.

Short of nuking it, I am fresh out of ideas. Very frustrated.

Ignore - I nuked it. I want to document what I did and be a bit more careful so I can report properly if I have an issue.

A few thoughts:

• $config->userAuthSalt was changed
• a database update broke something (update through your hosting company)
• a browser extension interferes
• a CDN interferes (Cloudflare is really good at it)
• you use the wrong user name
• you changed settings to login with e-mail

That's it for now.

Thanks a lot @wbmnfktr that is useful. I suspect a module but I cannot prove it :-)

This has happened again on a completely fresh install. I suspect it has something to do with LoginRegisterPro but cannot prove it. I have taken into account all the things you mentioned above as well @wbmnfktr - Cannot work out why it seems to work fine for a while then stops working. I am going to move this over to the LoginRegisterPro forumas it appears to be responsible.
