Password fail after upgrading 1.6.10 > 1.14.0

I'm upgrading directly from the 1.6.10 to 1.14.0. I unpack the script from
the site. Erase LocalSettings.php. Everything works after commenting some
extensions. But, here is the problem. When trying to log in as SuperUser,
the password don't match. Ryan_Lane tryed to help me with IRC. I tryed :
$wgPasswordSalt = false; But doesn't work either.
I'm wondering if you know where i can change this. I think the password
could be crypt differently during the upgrades.
If you had $wgPasswordSalt = false; in the LocalSettings.php of the
old installation, and then you upgraded using the web installer, then
the problem you describe would occur. If this is the case, you should
back up your database, and then run the following SQL query:
UPDATE user SET user_password =
CONCAT(':A:', SUBSTRING_INDEX(user_password,':',-1))
WHERE user_password LIKE ':B:%';
That should fix it.
