have changed my hosting few days back and realized my magento admin login stopped working. tried every possible solution provided by google but no luck. when i submit the credentials it return no errors just redirect me to the same admin login page with url -

http://www.mydomain.com/index.php/admin/index/index/key/c61d446704011292e96df5aa1f626cc7/

Any help would be highly appreciated.

It may be your cache problem(CRTL+F5) to clear the browser cache and check it or find your admin user in database and reset the password. And try it

SELECT * FROM admin_user;

UPDATE admin_user SET password=CONCAT(MD5('qXpassword'), ':qX') WHERE username='admin';

Hope it will help you.

  • The admin/index/index URL indicates that authentication was successful. The problem is likely something session- or cookie-related.

  • Delete your session and cache files in var folder or rename them

  • Check whether your server space is enough or check in different browsers.
