That partly depends on whether you are using AccountManagerPlugin, which has a password reset feature.

If you are using HTTP authentication and htpasswd store or similar, then you will need to access the server and change the password using the command line tools.

i am using the plugin, but it is not working .. i sent the email but do not receive it .. this is strange becauase i always receive emails for tickets ... 

i can see in the database there is an entry in the session_attribute table for my sid, the name is password, and the value is 

TracDbRealm:d9d2c8bb2253515092fd97a190374d74

Is this a hash?

the trac ini file has this: 

[account-manager]

authentication_url = 

db_htdigest_realm = TracDbRealm

force_passwd_change = true

hash_method = HtDigestHashMethod

password_store = SessionStore

persistent_sessions = true

refresh_passwd = False

verify_email = true

if i am admin on the machine, can't i just reset the password for the admin in trac?  how do i do it?  it seems the users in trac are not users on the machine, so i dont know how

[Ed Pataky]

ok i figured it out ..create a new user using registration, then go into trac-admin and do 

trac-admin ./ permission add TRAC_ADMIN

then login as the new person ... change the password of the old person you forgot the password for in the admin page

:) 

thanks
