Help!

I’m just trying to migrate an existing site from our testing server to our live server, and after the migration, I can’t log into the Control panel. Instead, I get this message when trying to login:

The username you submitted was not found in the database

This has happened to me on a couple of occasions before. For this particular site I’m using v1.6.2 and did this:

1)I exported the database using phpMyAdmin on the testing server
2)I imported it using phpMyAdmin on the live server
3)I uploaded all the files from the testing server to the live server
4)I updated the paths and database settings in path.php and config.php on the live server

From there I go to the live site and it’s a blank page (makes sense as I need to update the paths in the CP).

I go to the CP login (unstyled of course), and try to login using the same credentials as the testing server and get the “not found” error message.

Anyone know why this would be and how I can fix?

Thanks!

What’s even more interesting is that I’ve just done this exact process to 3 other sites using the same versions on the same servers and they worked fine.

Still no dice on this on though. Strange.

Nevermind,

Solved!

I was just importing with the wrong charset. Derrrr 😛.

Glad to hear you got this working =)

Hi thanks to this message can know was happen, because no errors show, and the database list all the data “ok” but Got same error today.

The results:

Blank Pages
When loggin the message “The username you submitted was not found in the database”

The reason: trying to change paths from a external text editor. Save it and migrate.

Solution: Double check the charset if you editing in a external editor.

Victor, thanks for mentioning your scenario. I’m sure it’ll help others who might have done the same thing. Don’t hesitate to post again as needed.
