admin account in 3.4.c not working

[negus]

hi,

I start with a clean alfresco installtion 3.4.c on a debian lenny server. The mysql database is used from the system to take effort of daily backup…
when I call after installation http://host:8080/alfresco
a page will be displayed and I'm loged in as guest.

When I try to login as user admin (pw: admin) I get the following message inside the webbrowser

Unable to login - unknown username/password.

I can login again with the user guest (pw: guest) and I can see the first page again

In logs/catalina.out are no error messages rising…

Also the database connection is not the source of the problem. This mistake I did previously and after fixing and it was not working. I made also a complete re installation (including reset of the database)…

until now no result. because of the silence in the logs I don't have any glue what to do


thanks in advance for your help

best regards

I have precisely the same problem on a Ubuntu 10.10 server with a full installer install. The message in the logs is

I just did the same thing and can log in as guest/guest but not admin/admin.  Did anyone figure out what is happening?

qasimk:
I have no such error message in catalina.out. so that this is maybe a different errror.

johnpneal:
could you see any errors in the log files?


by the way I'm using the 64bit version…

best regards
