Hi,

I'm exploring MediaWiki and, like a newbie, forgot my sysop password. Is there a specific sql script or resource I can use to reset it directly in the database? Any help would be appreciated.

Something like this:

update user set user_password=md5(concat(user_id,'-',md5('new password'))) where user_name='Sysop account name';
