Can't log ingame after changing sha_hash_pass of an account

Question

I changed the password directly in the DB (table account column sha_hash_pass) but now I can't connect, it never recognizes my password, even though I restarted the authserver.

Other accounts work fine but some don't. I'm lost, what to do?

Answer 1

If you change the password directly in the DB in the table account, but you have already logged in previously on that account, then you will get locked when trying to log again.

I don't know why, I just faced it.

So I checked the account rows and I deleted the content of these columns for the accounts that didn't work:

• sessionkey
• v
• s
• failed_logins

Then it worked fine :)
