Re: Problem with resetting password on 2.15
Hi Elmarie,
Did you try this again? did you manage to get it working? We have had
reports of this happening one time before, but I could never reproduce it
here locally.. Could you tell me more about your setup? exact dhis version,
browser, did you clear the cache etc.
Did the column users.passwordlastupdated get updated?
If this happens, and locks people out, probably the simplest solution is to
simple set passwordlastupdated to todays date (but please try on test
server).
