how reset admin password or repair the gallery3

I cannot login with my password for some reason - basically lost password . In mysql db i see the admin user.

using this:
<?
class x_Controller extends Controller {
public function login_as_admin() {
auth::login(identity::admin_user());
url::redirect(item::root()->abs_url());
}
}

and going /gallery3/index.php/x/login_as_admin - didn't help - i got in event log:

<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.'); ?>

browser shows: " 302 - Found"

Thank you for your time and help

1 link I already told what i get.
2 link i changed - also doesn't help - got:

"dang.. something went wrong!

We tried really hard, but it's broken. Talk to your Gallery administrator for help fixing this! "

logs show (my gallery3 was renamed to gallery during setup last year):

<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.'); ?>

------------------------------------------

by changing user password to md5: $P$DyhWrqfmMF/XKPf3CtPn0pIQDZpQKu. (12345) i see that there is a table "user_access_keys" - maybe i need to change something and there?

it works but the path is wrong.. in gallery3 its moved

wrong: modules/controllers/x.php

right: system/controllers/x.php

What I did was going into phpmyadmin.
and changed the password in the database.

for example $P$D5GWcHX2f.1WatjewxuNw69kMhuHNS. into $P$DpEmudN/OjcGVV.6.PPNPhVcAx.zWS.

This should get you 12345 as password.

So now you should be able to log in with 12345 and change your password.

Hope this helped you also.

I've just tried this again in my G3 (3.02) and it worked on 3 accounts!!!

$P$DpEmudN/OjcGVV.6.PPNPhVcAx.zWS. gives you a password --> it is 12345

I am a firefox windows user.. maybe you use something else, then I don't have the answer.

You can try this, but I don't know that it will work:
- Do a clean Gallery install in a new folder on the server.
- Create a new admin, password, etc.
- Copy the user-related tables from the new install's database to the old one (rewriting whatever's there now); don't overwrite the whole database, just the user-related tables--otherwise, Gallery won't have info to access whatever the 10GB of data is.
- Try to access the old Gallery install with the new admin password.

It should only take a sec to try this, so if it doesn't work, no harm done (since you're restarting everything anyway).

2nd time of what? What other software are you running on your site and is this on a shared server (shared with other sites)? If it's a shared server, how is Apache and PHP configured to run? Are they running a "nobody" or some other user for all sites on the server? If so, what software is running on those sites?

all these my problems because of my hosting provider, something happened with the ownership of my files over there. I wasn't able to delete/rename or change permissions on some of my folders even if I have 0775.. - it was too late - i'm recreating everything from the beginning
