How to unblock blocked IP address in Drupal 7

I installed a Drupal 7 site on my local server just to learn, After 10-15 incorrect log in attempts my local IP has been blocked.

Sorry, too many failed login attempts from your IP address. This IP address is temporarily blocked. Try again later or request a new password.

Screenshot of my local site:

As per articles:

  1. I erased flood table.

  2. Checked blocked_ips and found nothing.

    blocked_ips table:

I want to remove the limit of failed login attempts block.

Solution

  • If you cleared flood table your user is unblocked for sure. However it seems that you forgot your password just resend it again if you have mail server setup up in local. If not, Reset the administrator password with sql-query > https://www.drupal.org/node/1023428

    Login Security module will allow you to control number of failed attempts before blocking https://www.drupal.org/project/login_security
