Hello

Some weeks ago, I failed to login to our internal corporate wiki after having forgotten my password.

Since then I have requested a new password with the button "E-mail new password", but then I got this message:

  Login error
  You have made too many recent login attempts. Please wait before trying again.

Since then, I try from time to time, but I get the same message.

Could anybody tell me how to unblock my user ?

We use MediaWiki 1.17.0

Thank you

Eric

Just restart your web server (or your php server instance if you're using PHP-FPM), it will reset it.

...we fixed this same issue by restarting the HTTP daemon: service httpd restart
