[Mediawiki-l] Password authentication

You tried to login in the browser into your mediawiki-installation?
And you used a password, which is in localsettings.php?
How your password is named? (NOT your password itself, but the label infront of 
it, in your localsettings.php).

Do you mean:
       $wgDBpassword = "secret";
???

Use the username/password-combination, which you created while running the 
web-installer.

Regards,
Jan


> Hi, I just installed MediaWiki 1.9, but it will not allow me to log in using the info I gave when I set it up. It rejects my password. In my "localsettings.php" file, it gives the proper password: just to be sure, I even copied the password from localsettings.php and pasted it into the login window.
