Mediawiki does not do that. Do you have any password-related extension? LDAP maybe? Looks like you change your password and then some policy determines that your account is expired and disables you back.

Hi

I have enabled and installed the following extensions:

-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 1815 Dec 6 17:25 accesscontrolSettings.php -rw-rw-r-- 1 apache apache 7175 Dec 29 14:24 HttpAuthPlugin.php -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 9541 Dec 29 14:25 SSLAuthPlugin.php

maybe one of these is modifying the DB ?

thanks

Try disabling all extensions, verify that the password doesn't reset, then enable them one by one until you find the culprit (you may need to ogout and login on each test).
