I found several topics concerning resetting the administrator password to password using phpmyadmin, but I am not sure where to find the existing password value that needs to be changes in mysql database.

I have full access to the MySQL Database and all files on the server.

Thanks for your help.

Hi epodowski,

Are you not able to access the front-end member reset password template? This is typically at http://yourdomain.com/index.php/member/forgot_password/. If that is not possible please see this Wiki entry.

Cheers
