Something happened to my site between Saturday and today. Admin login doesn't work.
I tried creating a new admin in the SQL users database as per:
docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_recover_your_admin_password%3F
No success. Anybody else had this issue? How did you resolve it?
Joomla 2.5

Have you tried just going into your DB and resetting the MD5 Hash to one of the below?
- password = "this is the MD5 and salted hashed password"
- admin = 433903e0a9d6a712e00251e44d29bf87:UJ0b9J5fufL3FKfCc0TLsYJBh2PFULvT
- secret = d2064d358136996bd22421584a7cb33e:trd7TvKHx6dMeoMmBVxYmg0vuXEA4199
- OU812 = 5e3128b27a2c1f8eb53689f511c4ca9e:J584KAEv9d8VKwRGhb8ve7GdKoG7isMm - Send moderators PMs ONLY if they request it.

- Thanks, J!eremy. For some reason I just couldn't amend the database. However, my favorite of hosters - Dreamhost - jumped in and did it for me. Still not sure why I couldn't. As you say, I could see the login page, but couldn't get past it. Go figure. Thanks again!
