Multisite install login problem?

[photoman355]

I've been testing out the multisite feature of processwire installing via option 1 in the docs.  I managed to get everything working by following the first option which requires installing a new version of PW and copying the files over to a site-mysite directory.  I'm now testing out the second option which just needs the site files copies to a site- directory and importing the DB from another installation using PhpMyAdmin.

The installation worked fine but when I try to login to the admin the username and password I used from my clone site are not recognised.  I thought the password would pull over from the SQL database.  I'm sure this is something really simple but I'm scratching my head at the moment.

Any ideas?

The password is salted.

Try to use the same hash in $config->userAuthSalt as from your clone site.

Please keep the current hash too (uncomment), because I don't know your excat setup.

Many thanks Wanze, that's sorted it.
