I have installed openEMR 4.1.0 . I forgot my login password. Is there any way to reset the password? How?

Thanks

Do you have access to the database, if so you can edit the table directly :

Use this sql (change the ID to match the user you wish to change, this will set the password to “pass”

Update users Set password = sha1("pass") Where id = 1;

perhaps a “forgot my password” feature is needed

I have tried this several time and it no longer works. Does anyone have a work around for this

Sorry I forgot to express the version the version is v4.1.2 (4). There is no salt table. All users and passwords are in the same table.

I have tried to select a password from a similar install with no success.

Help! I have been locked out of Openemr because the Administration password expired.
what should I do?

The password is not time sensitive.

If you have the XAMPP-OpenEMR package in Windows, retrieval of the password is fairly easy.

If your OS is Linux, it’s tougher.
