Update 1.4.1.6 login problem

Admin username and password not working after upgrade :(

I had the problem with the malicious code being inserted into .htaccess files and google flagging the site as bad so I cleaned up .htaccess files and currently installing the 1.4.1.6 update. Not sure what the previous version was but I only installed it about 3 months ago so it's not that old.

I read in your instructions that I needed to double check my admin login as it cannot be recovered during the update process so I made sure I did that. Then I uploaded the new files to the server and went to setup.php page which is showing Zenphoto Setup Upgrade heading and asking me to login. My admin username and password are not working though! I tried entering the captcha and resetting but that doesn't work either.

What would you suggest? This is the site: phase5photography.com/zenphoto

    In this case please refer to the user guide's troubleshooting about restting forgotten/lost passwords. http://www.zenphoto.org/news/troubleshooting-guide#troubleshooting-security

    Ok that worked :) Dropping the admin table caused it to ask me to create new user/pass and it worked ok from there. BTW, I noticed couple of things are outdated in that article: DEBUG_LOGIN is set in global-definitions.php, not functions-basic.php, and administrators table is called zp_administrators

    Thanks!

    The administrator's table will be called by whatever prefix you have chosen. The use in the article needs necessarily be generic. Thanks for the note on the DEBUG_LOGIN. We will get that fixed.
