password problems to administrative area.


Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone - first time here (and I don't think it will be my last time :$) installed WHMCS without any problems - got the two default emails, and then logged in without any errors.

Come to modify the systems settings under "General" the system asked - "You are entering an administrative area of WHMCS and must confirm your password to continue." which I did

but just keeps asking me to confirm my password and wont let me continue from that point. (little background information and I will hold my hand up to this, I have made a few errors where I

have installed system and had to remove the hosting completely from the domain and then installed it again - maybe this issue could be with the  licence key) 

Can anyone help me with this? 

thanks & regards

Martin...

Hi @MartinPorter,

Welcome to the WHMCS Community! This behaviour you're experiencing is not related to the licence key.

Presuming the password being entered is definitely correct, it's most likely related to a server configuration issue. Please visit the Help > System Health Status page in your WHMCS Admin area.

Are there any attention items or warnings displayed there?

The solution to the most common ones are listed at:

Hi John, and thanks for getting back to me..

I should have update the post but after pressing on the submit above,  I went back to login to panel and a error box popped up telling me that my License was wrong

(wish I took a screen shot now) but what I can remember it was telling me that License was wrong / WHMCS was not in the right place or something like that

So I went back to my hosting company and I have a option to re-issue the License, which I did and then logged back into WHMCS without any problems and into

the General Settings > Confirm password to continue come back to it today and it's happening again just keeps asking for my password. 

on the Help > System Health Status > Needing Attention I have "Looking Good! Check you out. No issues needing attention! Good job!" 

Under warnings 

I have 4 which are -  

1) Using Default Templates.

2) Website SSL - which by the way I have.

3) PHP Version - Your PHP version 7.0.28 is supported by WHMCS. (one point to look into)

4) Installed cURL Version - You currently have version 7.19.7 of cURL installed.

What I can't understand is after re-issuing the License it worked it let me in and I spent about an hour or so working on it? 

I hope the above helps? 

thanks & regards

Martin....

Hi @MartinPorter,

This behaviour with your licence requiring periodic reissues indicates that the IP address of your hosting server is changing frequently. If your WHMCS installation is located in a load-balanced/cloud or other high-availability environment where the external IP address output by the PHP SERVER["SERVER_ADDR"] function changes frequently, and your licence was purchased directly from us, please contact our Licensing team via https://www.whmcs.com/submit-a-ticket/ . We can make an adjustment at our end to compensate.

If your licence was purchased from your hosting provider, please go through them to request the same.

All sorted John - sent support a email this morning and my Lic has now been updated so we should be cooking on gas!
