Topic: My DNN Login page is broken!

Posted By Mark Buelsing on 29 Jan 2010 02:40 PM
At one time or another, I've been faced with the problem that the DNN login page is broken. This can happen if the skin causes an error or a module on the same page throws an error or worse yet, you've assigned your login page to a page that does not have the login module on it yet and you logged out. I have seen this a number of times and have assembled this short list of things to try. Hope it helps someone else out there! Here is the first one. It's from John Mitchell. He has created a file that adds a login page to your site. Check out his post here: http://blogs.snapsis.com/CommentView,guid,3078311e-6925-4c03-8243-d1b9c8a11906.aspx And here is the second, from Will Strohl HOW TO : Access the DNN Login Page from Any Page - http://www.willstrohl.com/Blog/tabid/66/EntryId/118/HOW-TO-Access-the-DNN-Login-Page-from-Any-Page.aspx Another way I have devised is to have a second portal on the install that has a valid working login page. I can login there and go to the host, portals and edit or view the non-working portal from there - already logged in as host. That one takes some pre-planning unfortunately. And last of my suggestions is a concept only as I have not tried it yet, since one of the above has rescued me each time. Is the idea that a person could conceivably get access to the database, and insert a new login module on any existing page.
