For some reason my UBBt will not let me access any admin. functions or much else for that matter.

I can log on and am taken to the my home screen and I can see the admin link but when I click on it the message says I must be logged in. Any navigation from the my home page and I am not recognized.

I was signed on as another member through the admin panel, then logged out as that person and tried to return as admin with no luck.

Any ideas to get back on my board would be appreciated.

Done all of that and now I'm getting bombarded with e-mails from members telling me they can not log in either.

Looks like the problems is affecting other members.

Other ideas?

Have you made any config changes recently, such as changing the cookie path or prefix?

Another possibility is that one or more of the tables has gotten damaged, in particular the w3t_Users table. You could check/repair the tables.

Humm, the cookie path was changed early today but then was changed back to the entire domain.

I would look at config.inc.php and verify that $config['cookiepath'] is "/".

Problem identified. Human error. The cookie path was not correct.
Thanks for the help.
