Cannot Login to Admin After Security Updates


Recommended Posts

I Cannot Login to Admin

I enter username/pass, click Login, and literally nothing happens.  Tried a few different browsers with the same result. Any ideas???

I assume is related to one of the suggested security settings in the thread below as nothing else has changed, and I logged in without issue to make the changes:

This is what was recommended by a @WHMCS Areeb, a WHMCS Technical Analyst responding on that thread.

  • First of all, please make sure that "Allow Client Registration" is disabled at System Settings > General Settings > Other (tab) , as this provides an easy way for spammers to create accounts without needing to place an order.
  • Secondly, please make sure that you have enabled "Invisible reCAPTCHA" under "Captcha Type" at System Settings > General Settings > Security (tab) . This is the most secure captcha that is currently integrated with WHMCS.
  • Next, please make sure that you follow and implement all of the solutions provided in our documentation:
  • https://docs.whmcs.com/orders/spam-orders/

Please HELP!

Thanks

@UXmedia,

Do you see any errors in your browser's developer Console or Network tool?

It's possible there may have been a mis-configuration of the Google reCAPTCHA settings. In which case you can turn them off:

UPDATE tblconfiguration SET value = '' WHERE setting = "CaptchaSetting";

Then go to the Security tab in the General Settings to double-check the configuration.

@UXmedia,

I can just see in the bottom of your screenshot there is an error in the reCAPTCHA badge. Mouse-over it to see the error detail.

I provided the SQL command you can execute on the database to temporarily disable captcha in my previous message.

aha, yes.  it says 'This site key is not enabled for the invisible captcha.".  i did set it to "invisible" per the suggestion, but how can i change this if i cannot login?

You need to run the suggested command (UPDATE tblconfiguration SET value = '' WHERE setting = "CaptchaSetting";) from cPanel, i.e. using phpmyadmin...
