Locked out of admin?

[Andross]

I recently upgraded to 1.71 from 1.6. I made a minor screwup in the upgrade process and mislabeled the db prefix in pixelpost.php when updating. I figured it out, made the changes.

However, now when I try to go to login I'm presented with this "error" message:

"Try another day!!"

Totally ambiguous, random, don't know what it refers to. What's going on here?

I've tried re-uploading 1.71 files, and tried a revert to my 1.6 backup (no db backup available unfortunately), to no avail. Try another day continues to taunt me.

Any ideas?

Just to make clear, there are no problems with the site and how it functions, other than because addons are disabled, it isn't really working how it should be. Just the admin seems to be affected.

EDIT:

I managed to get the error reports going. This is what I got....

Did Pixelpost make new database tables using the wrong prefix or did pixelpost complete the upgrade procedure as it should once you changed back to the correct prefix?

It's possible your tables are a bit out of wack now.

If you do not think this is the issue, try clearing your browsers cache and try logging in again.

I had an older pixelpost prefix set from an older install, so it actually ran an upgrade on that. When I discovered what the problem was, I re-uploaded the pixelpost.php file with the proper prefix. It then went through the upgrade process once more on the correct prefix (ahphoto).

I'm thinking there's an issue with the db as well, but I'm not sure what it would be....I'm also wondering if something went out of whack when I re-uploaded.

Oh, I should also note, I cannot even get to the login page. I simply get the errors when I go to xyz.com/admin

It's tough to tell. I have no idea what went on with your upgrade due to the circumstances.

If you wish, via private message or AIM (Sn in profile) send me temporary ftp and mysql database login credentials along with user/pass for your admin panel and I'll go through it all and track down the problem spot.

"Try a nother day" usually comes up when you try to login with wrong admin acccess data.
If you've set the login to "autologin" or "remember me", the access data is stored in a cookie and you are not asked to login anymore. So try to clear your cookies, perhaps this will help!

Yup, clearing the cookies resolved the issue.
