Lost Admin access! HELP!

Hello,

I'm quite sure I haven't just forgotten my Admin password, but when I try to login to the admin pages I'm told that I didn't supply a valid username/password.

Is there any way to fix this without reinstalling eZ Publish?

Here's a little more information: I'm using eZ Publish 3.2 on a Linux system. I tried copying and pasting another user's encrypted password (which I knew) over the admin password in webmin, but no luck - still have the same problem.

Another thing I thought might be worth a go was to get the orriginal sql file for my database and find all the lines relating to inserting data for admin and check they were all still there and correct. I found two missing - an entry for ezurlalias and ezobject_tree. When I readded them, still no luck.

Anybody got any ideas?

I've no idea what it is I've done to mess up the database like this, I even checked that Admin still worked after I'd created some extra usernames and classes (I was extra careful not to damage the entries for admin as well, or add extra administrators).

The only thing I've done since them is build a workflow, is there anything in this that might cause problems?

Many Thanks,

Steve
