Incorrect User or Password from GUI

[rds-r2d2]

We have changed the admin password to something other than the default but now after a period of time we are getting "Incorrect User or Password" when trying to login via the GUI.  A few times before this we getting logged in then kicked out immediately and I had to reboot the device to fix it. But now nothing seems to work. 

I can still login via the CLI with expedition user. Is there a way I can add an Expedition user or edit the admin account from the CLI?

I can see that your log points out that the database is not available.

The users credentials are in the database, and if we do not have it running, it can't validate them.

The issue seems to be in the tc.log file. It may have got corrupted at some point (no big deal) and it can access it.

Try deleting the file

sudo rm -f /var/lib/mysql/tc.log

and afterwards, try starting mariadb again.

sudo service mysql start

Later, if MariaDB started correctly, just check if you can log into the GUI with your normal credentials. If it still fails, then try restorning the admin password with the CLI script

php /home/userSpace/utils/restore/restoreAdmin.php

I've been getting this as well.

Your suggestion definitely allowed me to start MariaDB and log in to the GUI, thanks; but seems Expedition is corrupted "Remote Exception" with no additional detail as soon as I log in, and much of the dashboard and all of the Internal Checks is broken.

Thanks anyway, looks like I'll have to rebuilt.

We could check the apache error logs to see if there is something more that we should check.

Could you check if you have errors in

/var/log/apache/error.log?

Cannot login to Expedition GUI.  Have not changed the admin password.  The php script referenced to reset admin password from the cli does not exist in expedition (there is no "restore" directory).  I have run sudo apt-get install expedition-beta. Still cannot log in to gui as admin with default password. I've restarted the browser and have also tried "sudo service mysql restart.  Still cannot login to gui as admin with default password.
